Abstract

This paper presents information on research on alternative fuels done by the Solar Energy Research Institute, Golden, Colorado. Renewable, alternative transportation fuels are projected to be competitive with fuels derived from petroleum at $25-$30/bbl within the next five to ten years; however, the time frame for development depends on the research and development investment level. Because they are the only liquid transportation fuels produced from renewable resources, alternative fuels have the potential to displace the crude oil being imported today.
