Growth Energy & ISU researcher at odds
Published Wednesday, July 28, 2010 at 09:25 AM
Growth Energy has repeatedly pointed out that these government supports are important because ethanol only has access to a small portion of the transportation fuel market. However, with more market access, the government supports become less important. Growth Energy’s Fueling Freedom Plan would bust the market open and force all fuels to compete for the consumer’s dollar.
Growth Energy believes Babcock has muddied the waters of understanding by writing about E15 this way: most gas sold in the United States contains 10 percent ethanol — a limit the Environmental Protection Agency may increase to 15 percent this fall. Growth Energy says the words – may increase - the blend is dramatically different than his study which assumed not only the existence of E15, but also that the introduction of E15 “substantially increases U.S. ethanol demand.”
