- Advanced Energy - Policy and Politics?
With the lack of a federal advanced energy policy, several states are seizing the opportunity to fill the void. I was in Columbus last week to attend Ohio Governor John Kasich’s Energy and Economic Summit, which kicked off the development of a comprehensive energy strategy for the state. Personally, I found the opening remarks from Governor Kasich and from Joseph Stanislaw, author and the former president of Cambridge Energy Research Associates, very motivating. 連邦政府の先進的なエネルギー政策の欠如と、いくつかの州では、隙間を埋めるためにチャンスをつかんされています
- Fixing A Broken Biofuel Incentive Program
The Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) program, created under the Energy Policy Act of 2005, mandated that increasing volumes of ethanol be blended into the nation's gasoline supplies. The 2007 Energy Independence and Security Act accelerated and expanded the original mandates with the RFS2. The RFS2 also mandated the use of advanced biofuels: 100 million gallons of cellulosic ethanol in 2010, 250 million gallons in 2011, 500 million gallons in 2012 and eventually 16 billion gallons of cellulosic biofuels by 2022. This mandate was issued despite the fact that there were no commercial cellulosic ethanol plants in operation. 2005年エネルギー政策法の下に作成された再生可能燃料基準（RFS）プログラムは、、エタノールの増加量は全国のガソリン供給にブレンドされることを義務付け
- Big Corn Gets Bigger; America's Ethanol Decade
In 2000, the United States produced 1.6 billion gallons of ethanol. By 2009, U.S. production of ethanol had expanded by a factor of nearly seven to 10.8 billion gallons, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. This 9-billion-gallon increase in corn-based ethanol production resulted from a combination of rising gasoline prices and a suite of Federal bioenergy policies. 2000年に、米国はエタノールの1.6億ガロン生産
