Among the study’s findings is that the capex required for developing 60 billion gallons of cellulosic ethanol is equivalent to or less than that required for new long-term petroleum production. For each new plant constructed, the BDM selected a feedstock/conversion pair resulting in the lowest cost of ethanol. Source: Sandia.
