US Calls On Biofuels Pioneers To Power The Military
From Business Green
Companies have been invited to submit proposals to a $30m biofuels initiative aimed at reducing the US military’s reliance on imported oil.
The funding is set to be provided by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Navy, and the Department of Energy (DOE) to match private investments in commercial-scale advanced ”drop-in” biofuels – so-called because they can act as immediate substitutes for diesel and jet fuel without the need for new engines or fuelling infrastructure.
