The technology needs little energy input, and can be completely renewable. Preliminary analysis suggests that Virent’s BioForming process can compete economically with petroleum-based fuels and chemicals at crude oil prices of $60 a barrel. Fuels derived from the process can have a 20–30% per Btu cost advantage over ethanol.

The report defines bio-based materials as industrial products made from renewable agricultural and forestry feedstocks, which can include wood, grasses, and crops, as well as wastes and residues. This promise of lower costs with increased volumes holds as true for lithium-ion batteries as it does for bio-based floor mats.

For each new plant constructed, the BDM selected a feedstock/conversion pair resulting in the lowest cost of ethanol. Sensitivity analyses were conducted to determine key parameters affecting production volumes, cost, and greenhouse gas savings. The study used state-level granularity in its assessments, rather than a national model.

Building on LCFS policies already adopted in Europe, British Columbia, and California, the researchers looked at potential costs and benefits of reducing the carbon intensity of transportation fuels by 10 to 15 percent by 2030. All of this helps achieve LCFS targets in the most cost-effective manner.
