Transportation Biofuels

The U.S. Department of Energy Alternative Fuels and Feedstocks Office (AFFO), formerly known as the Bioenergy Technologies Office, transportation biofuels research aims to accelerate the production of alternative fuels for heavy modes of transportation advancing energy security and resiliency. Made from widely available domestic feedstocks and advanced refining technologies, energy-dense biofuels provide a pathway to invigorate the bioeconomy.
