Bioenergy Philosophy

General ideas:

  • Not exciting to make something that others mine or harvest, e.g., methane competes with cheap natural gas.
  • Best prospects are valuable products from biomass, but need large markets.
  • Use all components of biomass.

    Restated:

    Cheap products such as synthesis gas, methane, and oils provide little margin for profit.

    Major investment in a factory best repaid with expensive products.
