Natural gas is among the biggest issues in renewables because its low cost has disrupted global energy and manufacturing, including biofuels and bioproducts.

The results can vary greatly depending on the data and assumptions used.

A good number to commit to memory is 14.9 billion gallons. That’s the capacity of the domestic corn ethanol refinery fleet.

Continued competitive pricing of higher blends of ethanol would move a lot of fuel.

The definition of bioproducts that I use in practice is products made using biomass that have a fossil fuel-based analog.

The EPA’s plan essentially reduces the floor for domestic corn-ethanol use from 14.4 billion gallons to 13 billion gallons.
