From the US Energy Information Administration, this paper entitled "Outlook for Biomass Ethanol Production and Demand," by Joseph DiPardo, takes a close look at the possibility that "the cost of producing ethanol could be reduced by as much as 60 cents per gallon by 2015 with cellulosic conversion technology." Additionally, the paper "presents a midterm forecast for biomass ethanol production under three different technology cases for the period 2000 to 2020."
