Provision for Establishing an Alternative Fuel Research and Development Program

The Tennessee Department of Agriculture may develop and implement an alternative fuel research program to stimulate public and private research in fuel-related conversion technology. This research should address converting Tennessee agricultural products, such as soybeans, switchgrass, and other biomass, into alternative fuels, as well as the production capabilities needed to deliver such alternative fuels to consumers. (Reference Tennessee Code 54-1-136)
