Proposed rule (RIN 3245-AF 86) shouldo specifically include companiesmaking renewable solid fuels from plant and woody biomass using torrefaction and other forms of pyrolysis. Electric utilities and other coal users are extremely interested in such fuels because the will allow co-firing or 100% usage of such fuels. This happens in existing coal-fired units, without any significant equipment upgrades. The production of such fuels is not covered by the Renewable Electricity Production Tax Credit, which is one of the criteria guidelines for the proposed rule.
