What do you see as the greatest challenges in making WindFuels a reality?
The biofuels community may be very reluctant to admit that there is a better alternative. The “not invented here” attitude at many institutions may limit their enthusiasm. Most Green Tech research and funding institutions have already fully committed their resources and focus to what seemed to be the best alternatives a few years ago. The DOE seems oblivious to the spiraling costs of nuclear, microalgae, shale oil, cellulosic ethanol, sequestration, coal, and CTL; and some at the DOE will have a hard time admitting the “Hydrogen Program” needs to be re-named the “WindFuels” program.
