英文文献摘要:
Biofuels have been promoted to achieve energy security and as a solution to mitigating climate change. This research presents a framework to examine the extent to which biofuel mandates and subsidies reduce gasoline consumption and their implications for the food and fuel prices. A dynamic, multi-market equilibrium model, Biofuel and Environmental Policy Analysis Model (BEPAM), is used to estimate the effects of these policies on cropland usage between food crops and fuel crops and food and fuel prices, and to analyze the incentives provided by alternative policies for the mix of biofuels from corn and various cellulosic feedstocks that are economically viable over the 2007-2022 period. The provision of biofuel subsidies that accompany the mandate under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) is found to significantly change this mix in favor of cellulosic biofuels produced from high yielding grasses and reduce the adverse impact of the RFS alone on food prices.
生物燃料已得到推广,以实现能源安全,并作为缓解气候变化的解决方案。本研究提出了一个框架,以考察生物燃料的规定和补贴在多大程度上减少了汽油消费,以及它们对食品和燃料价格的影响。动态,服务于多个市场的均衡模型,生物燃料和环境政策分析模型(BEPAM),用于估计这些政策对耕地的影响之间使用粮食作物和燃料作物和食品和燃料价格,和分析选择提供的激励政策对生物燃料的混合玉米和各种纤维原料在2007 - 2022年期间经济可行的。研究发现,可再生燃料标准(RFS)规定的生物燃料补贴大大改变了这种混合,有利于从高产草中生产的纤维素生物燃料,并减少了RFS本身对食品价格的不利影响。
