Filed under: Biodiesel, Ethanol Algae and second-generation biofuels hold a lot of promise to getting the U.S. off of petroleum-based fuels. This certainly isn"t a secret to anyone - if you need some background, you can check out our coverage of the Jan Kreider"s talk at the recent Sustainable Mobility Seminar - but algae are not a huge part of the national energy dialogue.
The National Algae Association would like to change this, and I"m sure at least a few news stories will be coming out in the next few days featuring our little photosynthetic friends. The NAA"s two-day Algae Commercialization Business Roundtable, Research and Networking Forum starts tomorrow in The Woodlands, Texas and features groups we"ve mentioned before, like Sapphire Energy, as well as some we"d like to learn more about.
The National Algae Association says it is the first algae trade association in the world with a "mission is to fast track algae commercialization in the US and around the world." At the very least, we should be talking about algae more. See more details after the jump.
