Today's Lipid to Renewable Diesel Fuel Market
For almost a full decade, the bio-based vehicular fuels industry has been anticipating the establishment of a continually expanding industry within a reasonably stable market base. However, a variety of events in the bio-based diesel fuel industry has resulted in this promising market still remaining dynamic. Of the five renewable, bio-based fuels that appear to have potential to displacement p...
متن کاملThe Renewable Fuel Standard in Competitive Equilibrium: Market and Welfare Effects
We construct a tractable multi-market equilibrium model designed to evaluate alternative biofuel policies. The model integrates the US agricultural sector with the energy sector and it explicitly considers both US ethanol and biodiesel production. The model provides a structural representation of the renewable fuel standard (RFS) policies, and it uses the arbitrage conditions defining the core ...
متن کاملMulticriteria comparison of fuel policies: Renewable-fuel mandate, emission standard, and carbon tax
We develop a two-region partial equilibrium model of the global market for liquid fuel and analyze different policies, such as biofuel mandate, emission standard, and fuel carbon tax. We rank these policies under different criteria, such as greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions, expenditure on fuel imports, the impact on fuel consumers and producers, the quantity of biofuel, etc. Our analysis suggests...
متن کاملA Renewable Source of Fuel
ory construction, George Homans pointed out that the theory is not a theory at all. Laughlin and Brady, like Parsons before them, have written what Homans calls an "orienting statement," which identifies an area of concern without making it possible to quantify variables, apply the framework precisely to particular situations, or infer anything from the theory. As even one of the contributors p...
متن کاملToward an optimal U.S. ethanol fuel subsidy
Enhanced environmental quality, fuel security, and economic development along with reduced prices of ethanol–gasoline blends are often used as justifications for the U.S. federal excise tax exemption on ethanol fuels. However, the possible effect of increased overall consumption of fuel in response to lower total price, mitigating the environmental and fuel security benefits, are generally not ...
