I've disliked ethanol for a variety of reasons, the largest having to do with food supplies when it became in demand. The impact is already being felt.

What was new in this article was the reality of producing the ethanol, with yard and crop waste, not corn or soybeans, with less energy needed and producing cleaner ethanol.

I noticed that and that would be a big plus.

It looks like they can make hydrogen as well.

For sure. Problem with that is changing the US fleet of cars and trucks. I think it will happen, but that will take a long time.

Bigger prob is that the byproduct is CO2. Looks like nukes are still the answer there.

Also: the 33% reduction in milegae is close with flex fuel cars, based on my experience with an '04 Explorer. Engines can, however, be designed to run more efficienty on etahnol, due to its much higher octane. Its done now with certain classes of race cars. So the 33% reduction can be reduced somewhat.

This is supposed to be cleaner than what is currently being used, more importantly leaves food chain stuff alone and uses less energy to produce. Nuclear is a way long ways away from production in cars.

Commercial nukes to make electricity to make hydrogen, then burn the hydrogen in vehicles.
