Although the starch-to-ethanol pathway is similar to that used for corn ethanol, based upon initial calculations from Drexel University, OBE’s winter barley ethanol has the potential to meet the criteria of an Advanced Biofuel as defined by the Renewable Fuel Standard-2 (RFS-2) and the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA 2007).
A lot of parking lots have been converted to LED lights, and during that conversion, the electricity draw on that circuit was decreased, because the LEDs use less current, so you have a little excess capacity in that circuit, and if you tie into that, now you can cover things like cloudy days or rainy days much better.
Fleets include transportation authorities, cities, school districts, the University of Michigan, FedEx, and Meijer. The fleets include two utility fleets, five cities and towns, three counties, ten private companies, two state fleets, ten school districts, and two universities. Total DOE award: $14,970,144.

metric ton reduction in green house gases per vehicle conversion, this has the potential to reduce more than 125,000 metric tons of greenhouse gasses over this ten year period. This minimum number does not include a premium that is anticipated for electric vehicles, so actual revenue opportunity would be more. Also, based on a 2.45
