GIFTPAC Objectives 1) Displace 25% of DoD fuel used in Hawaii. The fuel must be domestically produced, non-fossil, meet military specifications, be cost-competitive, and reduce price volatility. 2) Enterprise model inclusive of the local energy market that incorporates the agricultural, energy, environmental, government, industrial, and commercial sustainability objectives. 3) End state with sustainable ongoing competition among multiple commercial entities at many levels.
Co-Sponsors: PACOM and Navy DoD Members: ASD OEPP, DLA-Energy, DARPA, Defense Production Act Title III, AFCO, IMCOM PAC. Other members: USDOE, USDA, EPA, State of Hawaii, A4A, Hawaiian Electric Co.
Strategic Imperatives: National: Dependence of U.S. economy and military upon petroleum. Need for new areas of technological innovation and economic growth for national competitiveness. Regional: Allies and key nations similarly poor in fossil energy – opprtunity to avert resource conflict. Remote and petroleum-dependent operating bases. Abundant clean and renewable energy resources.

Summary of Potential Biofuels Benefits
• Energy Security – including fuel economics and costs to society o Diversification o Domestic resources
• Environmental o Greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions o Renewable, more sustainable
• Societal o Jobs creation o Rural development (USDA)

UNCLASS 11
Hawaii As an Oil Importer
• Petroleum provides nearly nine-tenths of all the (fossil) energy consumed in Hawaii. o 40.8 million barrels per year of petroleum products consumption
(2009) • The transportation sector leads energy demand in Hawaii, due in large
part to heavy jet fuel use by military installations and commercial airlines.
• Petroleum-fired power plants supply more than three-fourths of Hawaii’s electricity generation.

Fuel Economic Costs ≠ Total Costs to Society
• National Security Concerns o Potential supply interruptions due to political unrest or
geopolitical decisions – Venezuela, Iran, Libya, Iraq, and many others
o Securing fossil fuel delivery routes • Even small changes in crude supply or refining capacity can have big
impacts on prices • Anticipated fuel price changes or fuel availability affects business &
consumer choices

Biofuels Contribute to U.S. Fuel Supply Diversity
• U.S. crude oil imports are down due to biofuels, more efficient cars, and down economy o 2006 – 13.70 million B/D; OPEC was 5.5 million B/D o 2011 – 11.36 million B/D; OPEC was 4.5 million B/D
• Ethanol produced in 209 domestic biorefineries • Transition to cellulosic biofuels will require another 400 U.S.
biorefineries, using locally plentiful feedstocks
UNCLASS
UNCLASS 16
Roles Biofuels Play in the U.S. and Global Economy
• U.S. and Brazil dominate global biofuels markets, using corn, sugar cane, and soy oil as feedstocks
• U.S. today produces 14 billion gallons of fuel ethanol/year and another 1.1 billion gallons of biodiesel/year o Industry is a major buyer of U.S. corn (>5 billion bushels/year)
and a large seller of animal feed (DDGS) • Biofuels account for about 10% of U.S. gasoline pool and 1 – 2% of
diesel pool

EISA defines Advanced Biofuel as “renewable fuel, other than ethanol derived from corn starch, that has lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions…that are at least 50 percent less than baseline lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions.” This includes biomass-based diesel, cellulosic biofuels, and other advanced fuels such as sugarcane-based ethanol.
EISA defines Cellulosic Biofuel as “renewable fuel derived from any cellulose, hemicellulose, or lignin that is derived from renewable biomass and that has lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions…that are at least 60 percent less than baseline lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions.” The EPA interprets this to include cellulosic-based diesel fuel.

Biofuels Play a Significant Role in Stabilization of Atmospheric CO2 Concentrations
• A technology strategy is an important part of a larger strategy to address climate change and needs to be included along with the other major components: climate science research, adaptation to climate change, and emissions mitigation.
Six energy technologies and systems with potential to play a major role in a climate-controlled world:
-Biomass
-Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS)
-Nuclear
-Hydrogen
-Wind & Solar
-End Use Technologies

Secondary Benefits of a U.S. Typical 100 million Gal/Year Ethanol Biorefinery
• Sales of $250 - 300 million of fuel plus 320,000 tons of animal feed at $80-120/ton
• Buy 35 million bushels (980,000 tons) of grain (corn or sorghum) locally • Employ 100 – 200 during construction, then directly employ 20 – 30
during plant operation • Secondary or indirect local employment of 100 – 150 in local
community • Pay city, county, state and federal property, sales and income tax

Jobs and Economic Development Impacts (JEDI)
24
• 1. A project-level tool in Excel (http://www.nrel.gov/analysis/jedi/)
• To estimate the number of jobs (and income, economic activity), that will accrue to the
state from the project
• 2. Input-output analysis (or multiplier analysis)
• A method of summing the impacts of a series of effects generated by an expenditure (e.g.,
jobs/million dollar purchase of inputs)
• Multipliers in JEDI derived from IMPLAN
• 2008 multipliers: reflect the economic conditions (e.g., inter-industry relationships, jobs
supported by industries, and industry demand) in 2008

3. Total employment effects, including
• Direct jobs: project development and onsite labor
• Indirect jobs: local revenue and supply chain effects
• Induced jobs: effects driven by re-investment and spending of earnings
• Total jobs:
• Total jobs = Direct + Indirect + Induced

time equivalent for the 3 year construction period. Plant workers includes operators, maintenance, administration and
management. Economic impacts "During operating years" represent impacts that occur from plant operations/
expenditures. The analysis does not include impacts associated with spending of plant "profits" and assumes no tax
abatement unless noted. Totals may not add up due to independent rounding.
