The waste to oil process, however, treads a fine line between what is considered renewable energy and what&#8217;s not. The company would like to see their approach approved for federal biodiesel tax credits &#8212; which they are presently excluded from. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Apparently, wording in the Jobs Bill of 2004 limits a biofuel credit to fuels developed from &#8220;virgin soybeans and used cooking oil.&#8221;  While it&#8217;s great that these sources are receiving subsidies, I agree with CEO of CWT that <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8230;the playing field must be leveled to encourage the growth of new renewable liquid fuels by broadening the definition of eligible technologies. Parity for bio-fuels must be achieved by extending the biodiesel credit or providing a similar credit to other sustainable fuel sources.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>From RenewableEnergyAccess.com.<\/p>\n<p>Technorati tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/biofuel\" rel=\"tag\">biofuel<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/subsidies\" rel=\"tag\">subsidies<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow, what a long day&#8230; And it looks like there will be more like it in the near future, so the posts won&#8217;t come as frequently as I&#8217;d like.
