State Resources for biomass

     

 

 

 

...any fuel that is derived from biomass — recently living organisms or their metabolic byproducts, such as manure from cows. It is a renewable energy source, unlike other natural resources such as petroleum, coal, and nuclear fuels (wikipedia).

This biofuel can be used as a renewable alternative to gasoline in vehicles...

                     

 

And has the potential to become a vital component of our national energy needs!!

Where can I find more detailed information?
