The Hottest 50 Companies in Bioenergy--Part of Our Future in Northeast Nebraska?

December 25th, 2008 at 8:10 am

PRNewswire, reported Deceember 22, 2008, Biofuels Digest, the online daily bioenergy news service that US companies dominate; genomics, cellulosic ethanol and algae-based technologies prominent among honorees.

"Innovation in renewable energy is gaining speed," said Jim Lane, editor and publisher of Biofuels Digest. "A slew of advanced bioenergy systems are coming to market from some of the brightest biologists, chemists, agronomists and engineers in the world. These companies are the hottest of the hot."

The algae farming and energy producing technologies appear to have a longer term impact on our country as these facilities could be collocated with existing distillations and distribution networks as well as large CO2 emitters (e.g., coal fired electric generators) since algae needs CO2 for growth. A plentiful water supply will also be necessary.

Cellulosic produced ethanol also looks promising as there are several competing processes to produce the lowest cost result.
