Do you know how much dino diesel is up there? Well, I'll tell you, its between $2.60 and $2.70/gal. If biodiesel couldn't make it there, I would be surprised. Part of the problem, I suppose is the relative steadiness of biodiesel feedstocks. Sometimes it will make bio a lot cheaper, sometimes more expensive. I hate to say it, but as far as commercial bio goes, I don't think the coop model will work very well until one important thing happens. In colorado at least, there is an environmental assesment fee imposed on all vehicle fuels. I think a strong case could be made for exempting biodiesel, but so far it hasn't happened to the best of my knowledge. If we could get that fee removed from the price of the pump, biodiesel will be more certain of making a mainstream dispersion by sheer fact that it will be cheaper. In fact, even if it is only cheaper some of the time, I am willing to bet that distributors would be willing to "hedge" their dino fuel costs by buying in on a contract basis. That would be ideal.
