2 “Towards Energy Independence” over the years Source: EIA. Carter: “This nation will never use more foreign oil than we did in 1977… never.” First World oil crisis 1973 Obama: “Eliminate our current imports from the Middle East and Venezuela within 10 years.” Ford: “We must end vulnerability to economic disruption by foreign suppliers by 1985.” Nixon: “In the year 1980, the United States will not be dependent on any other country for the energy we need.”

3 60% of all U.S. oil consumption came from foreign countries in 2008 Domestic production: 6736 barrels daily – 40.8% Source: British Petroleum Statistical Review 2009. Imports: 9756 barrels daily 59.2%

19 A perfect day for biofuels… Energy Security Insufficient domestic supply Oil supply primarily in unstable regions Demand Trends Oil consumption outpacing discovery China & India Consumer awareness Supply Trends Nationalization of reserves High oil prices Peak production New technology improving efficiency of production Environmental Carbon emissions Offshore drilling Green legislation Pressure to create a significant, renewable, domestic source of liquid fuels Source: CERES.

21 Oil and biofuels: Two different business models Cost per unit Units produced Oil - High entrance barrier - High initial investment (for lease and facilities) - Low (and stable) marginal cost once scalability is achieved Cost per unit Units produced Biofuel - Low entrance barrier - Higher marginal cost even after scalability is achieved - Profitability is subject to uncertainty in raw material price - Possibility to reduce cost with future technology breakthroughs Source: Milken Institute.
