Description
Biomass-Based Diesel (BBD) has increased its share of the diesel fuel market from 0.5% volume in 2010 to 5.0% in 2018 and is projected to reach 10% by 2022.

We spent time with Dr. Tristan Brown, Associate Professor of Energy Resource Economics at SUNY College of Environmental Science & Forestry to learn more about the role of BBD in the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act. This legislation places the state of New York under a legal obligation to achieve a 100% net reduction of GHG by 2050, economy wide.
