Effect on Minimum Ethanol Selling Price (MESP) = MESP $2.21 = MESP $1.89 = MESP $1.57 Feedstock cost significantly affects ethanol cost Key assumptions: total alcohol yield/dry ton ~92.5 gal (ethanol ~ 78 gal; higher alcohols ~ 14.5 gal); feedstock is bark and residue of southern pine; steam from gasifier used for pulping processes.

Repurposing scenarios were all biochemical hydrolysis and fermentation, but differences involved type of wood. Repurpose A was same as for pulp production – a mixture of hardwood and pine chips. Repurpose B1, same as A with 10% additional wood throughput, Repurpose B2 was 100% pine chips and pine residuals, Repurpose B3 was 100% hardwood chips plus hardwood residuals. Plant size and enzyme costs assumed to be the same for all scenarios. Hardwoods are much easier to hydrolyse than pines with the chosen technology
I want to share with you some ideas about transportation options that are not included in the National Biofuels Action Plan of the US government, however, many private sector groups are showing much interest. That is the idea that renewable electricity used to fuel hybrid vehicles and all electric vehicles should be a bigger part of the alternative fuels plans in the U.S.
A preliminary analysis which I helped to prepare shows that current electric vehicles are significantly more efficient to operate than gasoline or ethanol fueled vehicles. Also future electric vehicle technology is expected to much more efficient than even the best technology using the most efficiently produced alternative biofuels. The electricity can come from many renewable sources and it is extremely unlikely that 20 million acres of U.S. land would ever be planted to hybrid poplars. However, corn used for ethanol is already grown on 20 million acres, so that amount of land is used for the comparison. Efficiently produced wood converted in efficient biomass power facilities to electricity and used in efficient electric vehicles could theoretically supply all power needed for all vehicle miles currently traveled in the U.S.
