NORA Completes New Study On Transitioning Heating Oils To Bioblends
August 31, 2020
The National Oilheat Research Alliance recently completed a new study to provide more information on supply, logistics challenges and the relative benefits of carbon reductions, related to a transition to Biofuels.
The 37-page report was produced by IHS Market for NORA and is designed to answer these questions–
— Will there be enough biodiesel and feedstock for a transition to 100 percent biodiesel blend in
heating oil (B100 Bioheat™) by 2050? What will be the major feedstocks?
— Can Bioheat™ compete with electricity in the residential/commercial heating market on a CO2
emissions basis?
— What types of investment will be needed to deliver higher biodiesel blends?
— Can a liquid heating oil reach net zero emissions by 2050?
