Bush Prods Congress On Energy Bill, Touts Ethanol

Bio Clean Fuel President Bush on Monday called on congressional Republicans to stop dragging out negotiations on a broad energy bill and endorsed corn-based fuel like ethanol as a way to ``grow our way'' out of tight oil supplies.

New research has indicated that more investment in energy efficiency could help to reduce fuel poverty.

Earth Bio Fuel Congressional talks over the energy legislation have been deadlocked for a month, with Republicans bickering over how to make up the loss of federal excise taxes for highway projects caused by tax breaks given for ethanol-blended gasoline. The White House, which ranks the energy bill as a top priority, has been lobbying Congress daily to finish up the legislation.

New research from Halifax has shown that over 25% of homeowners have undertaken energy and fuel saving improvements to their property in the least year.

Bio Flight Fuel Green Jb100 ``I think it would be great if we were able to grow our way out of an energy crisis -- have the farmers produce products that will be converted into fuel. That makes sense,'' Bush said in a speech in Birmingham, Alabama.

(AXcess News) The Renewable Fuels Association (RFA) said Friday that the U.S. ethanol industry set a new monthly production record of 302, 000 barrels per day ( d) in February, dispelling the myth of supply shortages, according to data released by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). That equates to nearly 12.7 million gallons a day. February's production represents a 14, d increase over January and a 57, d increase from one year ago.

Bio Bio Fuel Less More Waste Ethanol is part of a broad energy bill, which offers some $16 billion in incentives to build new nuclear power plants, encourage oil and natural gas drilling and develop alternative energy sources.

Yes, ULSD fuels have a lower BTU value and thus when burned in a diesel engine will result in less power. Cetane enhanced products can offset this power loss. Cetane is a high energy compound that makes the fuel burn more completely in the combustion chamber, resulting in more power, reduced emissions, and improved fuel economy. Power Service diesel additives contain "+ Cetane Boost" to offset this power loss while also improving fuel economy and reducing emissions.

Make Bio Fuel Distilled from corn, ethanol is backed by Midwestern lawmakers as a boost for farmers and a clean-burning gasoline additive. However, lawmakers from states that produce oil and the fuel additive MTBE view ethanol as a rival product.

The earlier comment about bio fuels being an issue is correct. We are seeing it now that the price of corn has gone up dramatically..why. Ethanol production and the fact that those producing will pay higher price for corn than feedstock owners will. Guess what. your food prices will eventually skyrocket.! cattle, pork, chickens etc.

Bio Fuel Jb100 Jet Properties Bush called on Congress to resolve their differences over the energy bill.

Fuel Cell Bio ``They need to get the job done -- they need to get an energy bill to my desk,'' Bush said.

Bio Conversion Fuel Two key Republican tax-writers are deadlocked over how to compensate federal highway funds for a decrease in revenue due to tax breaks to companies that blend ethanol with gasoline.

Green Energy Senate Finance Committee Chairman Charles Grassley supports language to put more money into the highway fund to make up for ethanol's 5.2 cent-a-gallon tax exemption.

Bio Ethanol Fuel Grassley is from Iowa, the nation's top corn-growing state and the site of the first important vote in the Democratic presidential nominating process next year.

Bio Clean Fuel Meanwhile, House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Bill Thomas of California, whose district produces 80 percent of the state's onshore crude oil, favors deferring the ethanol subsidy changes until next year, when Congress tackles a transportation bill.

Earth Bio Fuel Work on ethanol was taking a back seat to a separate squabble between Grassley and Thomas over prescription drug benefits for retirees. The administration agreed drug coverage should come first, a sign of the importance the issue could have in the 2004 presidential and congressional election.

Bio Flight Fuel Green Jb100 Just before joining a negotiating session in Medicare benefits, Grassley told reporters it would be ``very difficult'' to enact compromise Medicare and energy bills by Thanksgiving.

Bio Bio Fuel Less More Waste Time is running out for action on the bill this year, with Congress tentatively set to adjourn on Nov. 14.

Make Bio Fuel The Bush administration last week sent Vice President Dick Cheney and Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham to Capitol Hill to lobby for a deal.

Bio Fuel Jb100 Jet Properties ``Every day we have people up on the Hill working on this,'' said a White House spokeswoman.

Fuel Cell Bio Seventeen state governors from Montana to Virginia -- with most from the Midwest -- wrote the Republican and Democratic leaders of Congress in support of Grassley's ethanol tax ``fix.''

Bio Conversion Fuel ``The legislation would maintain incentives for the production and use of American-made ethanol-blended fuels and eliminate the highway funding penalty presently incurred by high ethanol-consuming states,'' said the governors.

Green Energy The energy bill would also modernize the electricity grid, encourage construction of new power plants and a natural gas pipeline from Alaska to the U.S. Midwest, and double ethanol's share of the fuel market.
