UPCOMING WEBINAR
Crop Management Matters: Feedstock Production Practices Drive Biofuel Sustainability
Nov. 12 at noon CT
Airlines are looking at sustainable aviation fuel, or SAF, as a way to cut their carbon emissions. Corn and switchgrass can both be used to make it, and how the crop is grown can change how much climate benefit the fuel actually delivers.
This seminar looks at the carbon footprint of SAF made from corn and switchgrass, using data collected directly from a long-term field experiment. It also shows how those results, expressed as a carbon intensity (CI) score, could change the payments available under the Section 45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit, a federal tax credit for producing cleaner fuels.
