Biofuels Data

Bioenergy markets are dynamic and evolving, requiring constant monitoring of product streams. The Biomass Program tracks market prices for commercially-available biofuels in cooperation with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's Clean Cities program, its own Energy Information Administration, the ethanol industry's Renewable Fuels Association, and the OPIS fuels information service, which obtains data from the Chicago Board of Trade and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.
