- 4. Bioenergy Rank: 74%
- Bioenergy is renewable energy derived from biological sources, to be used for heat, electricity, or vehicle fuel. Biofuel derived from plant materials is among the most rapidly growing renewable energy technologies. In the United States, corn-based ethanol is currently the largest source of biofuel as a gasoline substitute or additive, and recent energy legislation mandates further growth of both corn-based and advanced biofuels from other sources. Growing biofuel demand has implications for...

- Photo: Sugar plant in Brazil Global biofuel production tripled between 2000 and 2007, but still accounts for less than 3 percent of the global transportation fuel supply. Increased biofuel demand has contributed to higher world food and feed prices. Biofuels will likely be part of a portfolio of solutions to high energy prices, including conservation, more efficient energy use, and use of other alternative fuels. This article is drawn from . . . Ethanol Expansion in the United States: How Will...

- puncture the ethanol biofuel bubble Good science news (or bad, depending on your point of view) has arrived with two reports on the carbon footprint of biofuels, in the paper edition of Science magazine. They deal serious damage to the belief - which up to now has been driving the biofuel bubble - that stepped-up ethanol production in the US is an answer to global warming. Writing in "Use of US croplands for Biofuels Increases Greenhouse Gases Through Emissions for Land Use or Change," Timothy...
