  • Ag Secretary Defends Ethanol [View article]
    What the secretary does not mention (nor did the interviewer ask) is that the energy content of ethanol is about 1/3 less than gasoline. Current costs of E-85 ethanol do not nearly account for the energy disparity. E-10, if priced on an energy content basis should be 4% or so cheaper than straight petrol, but is in fact 4% or so HIGHER due to market prices and Govt mandates and subsidies.
