Turning Grass into Gas

Everyone knows that gas prices are soaring. Relying on traditional fossil fuels is causing many environmental and political issues. But what are the solutions? The Department of Energy BioEnergy Science Center (BESC) was created to help find out.

BESC is a partnership for bioenergy solutions that’s connecting the world’s leading scientific minds and resources. Our goal is to help develop viable, plentiful and clean alternative fuel sources for generations to come. Like turning common switchgrass or soybeans into fuel that runs your car.
