Biofuels in the USA
12/01/2006
Implementing biomass-related energy programs is easier at the state level. Currently five states including California Ohio Hawaii Minnesota and Montana have either a Renewable Fuel Standard or have passed legislation to use biofuels. Until recently biomass has been on the backburner for many renewable energy advocates but the Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) numerous agriculture organizations and several Members of Congress have been promoting this renewable energy source for years.
