Biomass Calculator
For biofuels to be competitive and sustainable, high-yielding energy crops will be required in most areas. That is because harvesting and transporting biomass to the biorefinery are collectively the most expensive part of feedstock supply. Low yields and widely dispersed crop residues quickly make harvest and delivery cost prohibitive.
Due to the higher yield density of the feedstock, biofuels produced from dedicated energy crops have the potential to compete economically with gasoline and offer significant cost advantages over other biomass sources.
