  • Miscanthus carbon negative

    Hi Vinod

    You have written an excellent article. Additionally growing Miscanthus will usually increase carbon storage in the soil, and its use can be genuinely carbon negative. Thus EU researchers are claiming that it will be possible to generate electricity from Miscanthus and at the same time significantly reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide levels.
    This crop will soon be widely commercially available in USA and Canada, as it is already in the EU.
    Best Wishes for your brave ventures in cellulosic conversions, I am particularly impressed by the potential from Range Fuels and other gasification based conversions, and would be interested to learn more about these.
    It looks like some of your ventures will soon be very profitable.
    Those of us commercially developing Miscanthus would like you batting on our side, this last sentence includes a cricketing term but I guess you can cope with that

    Hi Vinod I think you are batting on a dodgy wicket with winter cover crops
