Kreutz used two examples of CCTF systems in his analysis: biodiesel from microalgae and Sandia National Laboratory’s S2P process (an effort to utilize concentrated solar energy to convert waste CO 2 into synthetic fuels, earlier post ). emissions. In CCTF, the source of CO 2 determines the net carbon intensity of the fuel, Kreutz says.

California’s LCFS also would have little or no impact on GHG emissions nationwide and would harm our nation’s energy security by discouraging the use of Canadian crude oil—our nation’s largest source of crude—and ethanol produced in the American Midwest. The LCFS is an ineffective tool for reducing GHG emissions. NPRA President Charles T.
