Um... probably a lack of feedstock. Just because there are piles of debris available in the forests doesn't mean it's logistically or economically feasible to go retrieve it.Then why is <1% of electricity generated in the U.S. from biomass (0.3% according to GREET model)?
Cost and feedstock. It's pretty easy to achieve < $0.01/mile with an EV powered from solar or wind. Just the cost of converting any feedstock even if that feed stock is free is going to be >2x that. Solar and Wind are an effectively infinite 'feedstock'. We'll run out of ways to use them before we run out of solar or wind.Why aren't the folks who are concerned about cAGW at least as enthusiastic about biofuels as they are about BEV technology?
