INTEGRATED BIOREFINERY DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS

Administered by: Department of Energy
Annual funding: $100 million for FY2007, $125 million for FY2008, and $150 million for FY2009 authorized by the Energy Policy Act of 2005
Established: Calendar Year 2005 by §932(d) of the Energy Policy Act of 2005
Scheduled termination: DOE should solicit for proposals no later than 6 months after enactment of the Energy Policy Act of 2005
Description: This program is designed to demonstrate the commercial application of integrated biorefineries. It shall ensure geographical distribution and consider demonstration of a wide variety of lignocellulosic feedstock, collection and treatment of a wide variety of biomass feedstock, and commercial application for a variety of uses. Projects proposals must be able to operate without direct Federal support after initial construction costs are paid.
Qualified applicant: Groups capable of demonstrating advanced biorefineries
