What will it cost to make a gallon of ethanol with the MyDaisyDuke ?
With E-Fuel carbon credits and local and federal rebates factored in, it may be possible to make ethanol for $1.00 per gallon with sugar feedstock or as little as $0.10 per gallon from discarded liquor. The recent passage of the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 established a sugar-to-ethanol program that allows surplus sugar to be sold for biofuels at 2 cents per pound, which may lower the cost of ethanol fuel production even more.
