7 Assistant Secretary Dr. David Danielson s Five Questions HIGH IMPACT: Is this a high impact problem? ADDITIONALITY: Will the EERE funding make a large difference relative to what the private sector (or other funding entities) is already doing? OPENNESS: Have we made sure to focus on the broad problem we are trying to solve and be open to new ideas, new approaches, and new performers? ENDURING U.S. ECONOMIC BENEFIT: How will this EERE funding result in enduring economic benefit to the United States? PROPER ROLE FOR GOVERNMENT: Why is what we are doing a proper high impact role of government versus something best left to the private sector to address on its own? INNOVATION 7 Bioenergy Technologies Office
8 Key Challenge for Innovation Involves Lowering Risks De-risking technologies is central to R&D through demonstration that addresses greater integration and scale: BETO is focusing on advancing renewable gasoline, diesel, and jet fuels technologies. Technical, construction, operational and financial/market risks. 8 Bioenergy Technologies Office Key Challenges Biomass Pretreatment Conversion Product Reliable supply Consistent quality Affordable delivery Biomass feeding, sizing and moisture Solids handling Construction materials Products Yields Construction materials Catalysts Fermentation organisms Separations Catalytic upgrading Recycle loops
9 FY15 Program Activities and Goals Feedstocks: Demonstrate a modeled mature delivered feedstock cost of $115 per dry matter ton (including both grower payment and logistics). Algae: Demonstrate integrated protein and carbohydrate conversion with target of 80% of theoretical yield from proteins and carbohydrates. Demonstrate an increase in algal intermediate yields (1,500 gallons/acre/year). Demonstration and Market Transformation: Increase portfolio to include 3 novel technology demonstrations to reduce risk of scale up of emerging bioenergy pathways. Biochemical Conversion: Reduce modeled conversion cost via a biochemical (hydrolysis) conversion route to hydrocarbon fuel blendstocks in support of the 2022 programmatic goal of $3/gal for drop-in fuels such as renewable gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel [$6.40/gallon of gasoline equivalent (gge)]. Thermochemical Conversion: Reduce the modeled conversion cost contribution via fast pyrolysis for converting biomass to a hydrocarbon fuel blendstock in a mature commercial-scale plant. [$3.70/gallon of gasoline equivalent (gge)]. Sustainability: Identify practices that improve sustainability and environmental performance of advanced bioenergy, including results from a comprehensive case study of environmental, social, and economic sustainability indicators for a cellulosic feedstock production and biorefinery system. Collaborations with the Vehicle Technologies Office: Test fuels and develop better engines for high octane fuels. 9 Bioenergy Technologies Office
10 Demonstration Portfolio Overview The Demonstration & Market Transformation (DMT) Program manages a diverse portfolio of projects focused on the scale-up of advanced biofuel production technologies from pilot- to demonstration- to pioneerscale.

15 Feedstock Supply and Logistics Focus Fully integrate feedstocks into supply chain (multiple interfaces). Reform raw biomass into high-quality feedstocks. Use innovative technologies to ensure sustainable supply and reduce costs. Reduce risks to enable industry expansion. Approaches Use basic and applied science to understand, model, and manage. Provide nationally, but solve locally. Meet environmental performance targets and goals while assuring sustainability. Work with stakeholders and partners. Cost Biomass Supply Quality Quantity 15 Bioenergy Technologies Office
16 Advanced Supply System Design Objective: Transform raw Biomass into high-density, stable, commodity feedstocks: Actively manage feedstock variability and supply uncertainty Feedstock specifications and conversion performance drive logistics and preprocessing Advanced preprocessing accesses low-grade and diffuse resources (i.e., use any and all available resources) Approach: Advanced preprocessing and formulation of multiple raw biomass resources into least cost/performancebased feedstocks 16 Bioenergy Technologies Office
17 Benefits of Algal Biofuels Benefits High productivity relative to terrestrial feedstocks Adds value to unproductive or marginal lands Able to use waste and salt water Able to recycle carbon dioxide Able to provide valuable co-products, such as protein to meet animal feed needs Produces a range of biofuels including gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and ethanol High-impact feedstock, increasing the U.S. domestic biomass feedstock production potential by 5 billion gallons per year Photos Courtesy Sapphire Energy 17 Bioenergy Technologies Office
18 Significant Commercialization Challenges There are two overarching challenges to reaching the costs and performance projections from the baseline cases: (1) Reducing costs of production. (2) Ensuring sustainability and availability of resources. Challenges Affordable and scalable algal biomass production: Current technologies are designed for production of high-value products rather than highyielding products. Current facilities use high-cost liners, nutrients, and predator controls. Agglomeration strategies are too expensive. Transport costs are higher for intermediates suitable for diesel and aviation fuels. Siting and sustainability of resources: Nutrient recycle has limited use. CO 2 delivery requirements limit siting decisions. Cultivation currently requires significant water resources. Harvesting and preprocessing technologies are not energy efficient. Competition for CO 2 has significantly increased its cost. Photos Courtesy Sapphire Energy 18 Bioenergy Technologies Office
19 Algae Program Program Performance Goal Develop and demonstrate technologies that make sustainable algal biofuel intermediate feedstocks that perform reliably in conversion processes to yield renewable diesel, jet, and gasoline in support of the BETO s modeled $3/gge biofuel goal in Approach Use techno-economic, life-cycle analysis, and other validated models as tools to direct research and development; evaluate performance towards goals; and down-select pathways, processes, and performers as appropriate. Leverage a strong foundation of ecology, advanced biology, and physiology to improve yield and productivity. Focus on engineering solutions as a cost reduction strategy.
