RE: Re "terminology"



Tom - Thanks for the follow-on information.

1.  I asked about this to better understand whether pyrolysis is similar to
gasification in being covered by this US-only tax credit (which is pretty
sizeable).  I confess I am still not sure - but think at least the gas
portion (maybe not the charcoal portion) may be covered.

2.  If any charcoal expert on the list has this sort of tax experience - it
may help push the greater use of pyrolysis (which I think is important since
I think most charcoaling facilities in this country only flare the gases -
don't use the hot gasses productively).  And this tax credit could change
the economics enough.   True?  If not covered, I certainly think both the
gasses and charcoal should be covered.

3.  I suppose this may be a precedent for extending such a tax credit
overseas (maybe only for biomass - not for the fossil fuels - when we start
thinking of global warming abatement incentives.

Ron
