Arundo donax for Electricity

Florida-based Biomass Investment Group (BIG), is embarking on a project using Arundo donax as an energy crop that will be grown on 20,000 acres (8000ha). The biomass will be converted into bio-oil, a heavy fuel oil, via a fast-pyrolysis process . This carbon-neutral oil will then be used in a power plant that will provide electricity to some 80,000 Floridian households.
