BioDiesel is Ethanol 10 years ago.
Want a glimpse of the future of the BioDiesel industry? One possible scenario would be to look at the Ethanol industry. I ran across the 2005 Fuel Ethanol Industry Directory today in e-mail. Basically a yellow pages of who is who. Now it costs money, so I didn't buy the thing yet, but it is quite thick and long. Ethanol is primarilly a fuel additive today, but will be starting to push E85 as a fuel in itself. GM is coming out with more and more E85 compatible vehicles.
I, myself, am cutting directly to the chase and running B100 in my Touareg rather than mixing. But I understand that the vast majority of the country will date before they marry.

I would respectfully disagree. Biodiesel is ethanol, done right ;)
While ethanol had its roots as an ag industry subsidy (anyone remember the USSR's grain embargo?), biodiesel is a real solution to pressing problems.
On the downside, you can't get drunk on biodiesel. So ethanol does have its advantages.

Here are the 2005 vehicles for E85 - Check out the performance loss you receive by using E85. It's no wonder people like biodiesel so much better...

Can you imagine where biodiesel would be if we had all these vehicles to choose from? HUGE! It will come...
