Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. With recent high energy prices, the passage of major energy legislation in 2005 and 2007, and the passage of a new farm bill in 2008, there is congressional interest in promoting alternatives to petroleum fuels. Biofuels -- transportation fuels produced from plants and other organic materials -- are of particular interest. Ethanol and biodiesel, the two most widely used biofuels, receive significant gov¿t. support under fed. law in the form of mandated fuel use, tax incentives, loan and grant programs, and certain regulatory requirements. This report outlines fed. programs that provide direct or indirect incentives for biofuels. For each program described, the report provides details incl.: administering agency, authorizing statute(s), annual funding, and expiration date. Illus.

Download or read book Understanding U S Ethanol Consumption and Its Implications for Policy written by Jay P. Kesan and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Policies to promote ethanol consumption were implemented on both the federal and state levels during the past decade. Several new biofuel incentives and regulations are expected to be enacted in the near future. Understanding current ethanol consumption is an important first step in assessing the impacts of enacted legislation and formulating sound economic policies that will promote ethanol consumption. Despite the important implications for policy, our understanding of ethanol consumption patterns is quite limited. This Article examines historical state-level ethanol consumption data to understand how ethanol consumption responds to regional macro-economic conditions and incentives set by state governments. Our empirical analysis reveals that changes in ethanol consumption patterns occurred before and after 2005, the year the original Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) program was signed. Prior to 2005, ethanol consumption responded to incentives set by state governments. These relationships weakened after 2005, however, and ethanol consumption became more uniform across states. These empirical findings can be interpreted as indicating the emergence of a nascent, national market for biofuels. If biofuels are no longer simply local phenomena, some coordination in policy making between the federal and the state governments is necessary to promote biofuels consumption within the United States. Furthermore, technological progress in biofuel production is needed to serve as an engine for the growth of biofuel consumption.

This book was released on 2012-07-28 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wide array of federal incentives support the development and deployment of alternatives to conventional fuels and engines in transportation. These incentives include tax deductions and credits for vehicle purchases and the installation of refueling systems, federal grants for conversion of older vehicles to newer technologies, mandates for the use of biofuels, and incentives for manufacturers to produce alternative fuel vehicles. The current array of incentives for alternative fuels and related technologies do not reflect a single, comprehensive strategy, but rather an aggregative approach to a range of discreet public policy issues, including goals of reducing petroleum consumption and import dependence, improving environmental quality, expanding domestic manufacturing, and promoting agriculture and rural development. Current federal programs are administered by five key agencies: Department of the Treasury, Department of Energy, Department of Transportation, Environmental Protection Agency, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The incentives and programs described in this report are organized by the responsible agency. Treasury (through the Internal Revenue Service, IRS) administers tax credits and deductions for alternative fuel and advanced technology vehicle purchases, expansion of alternative fuel refueling infrastructure, and incentives for the production and/or distribution of alternative fuels. Many of these incentives have expired in recent years and may or may not be reinstated. DOE (mainly through the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, EERE) administers research and development (R&D) programs for advanced fuels and transportation technology, grant programs to deploy alternative fuels and vehicles, and a loan program to promote domestic manufacturing of high efficiency vehicles. DOT (mainly through the Federal Highway Administration, FHWA, and Federal Transit Administration, FTA) administers grant programs to deploy “clean fuel” buses and other alternative fuel vehicles. DOT (through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, NHTSA) also administers federal Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards, which include incentives for production of alternative fuel vehicles. EPA (mainly through the Office of Transportation and Air Quality, OTAQ) administers the Renewable Fuel Standard, which mandates the use of biofuels in transportation. EPA also administers grant programs to replace older diesel engines with newer technology. USDA (mainly through the Rural Business-Cooperative Service, RBS) administers grant, loan, and loan guarantee programs to expand agricultural production of biofuel feedstocks, conduct R&D on biofuels and bioenergy, and establish and expand facilities to produce biofuels, bioenergy, and bioproducts.
