NREL report estimates gasoline produced from biomass could cost about the same as ethanol

Green Car Congress

In comparison, based on analysis work completed at NREL, the predicted PGP for ethanol produced via the thermochemical and biochemical pathways are $1.57 gallon US ($0.52/liter). This is a gallon ethanol equivalent on an energy basis (gee) price of $1.39/gallon gallon ($0.37/liter). Gasoline has a higher energy content than ethanol.)
