Florida Biofuel Industry Indicates Bright Prospects for the State

Even as the BP oil spill dissipates in the Gulf Coast, Florida’s biofuel industry might just about grow in this aftermath. Currently, biofuels such as algae-derived diesel and ethanol are gaining the attention of energy producers as well as the general public.

The massive oil spill has already left a lingering impact on entrepreneurs and investors alike toward considering sustainable fuels.

Thus, a buzz has been created for producing renewable energy as soon as possible. What’s more, the biofuel industry could definitely help Central Florida and the Space Coast to reconstruct their respective economies. A former manger of The Boeing Co. commented that the aerospace work force could facilitate the transition into this alternative energy business.

Florida has abundant sunshine along with ample rainfall. The state is ideal for the purpose of biomass production in the entire nation while the technology exists for converting natural resources into renewable energy. Florida is anticipated to generate 30% of the state’s fuel needs by way of agriculture by the year 2025.
