DOE to Provide up to $40 Million in Funding for Small-Scale Biorefinery Projects in Wisconsin and Louisiana
WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)
today announced the selection of two small-scale cellulosic biorefinery
projects in Park Falls, Wis. and Jennings, La. for federal funding of
up to $40 million over five years. These projects will further
President Bush’s goal of making cellulosic ethanol cost-competitive
with corn-based ethanol by 2012, and help reduce America’s gasoline use
by expanding the availability of alternative and renewable
transportation fuels.
