Republicans critical of Navy’s ‘real
Green Fleet’, $26 / gallon fuel
Fox News –
7/2/2012
The spokesman also confirmed
the fuel -- which does not require engine modifications -- costs $26 a gallon
compared to $3.60 a gallon for conventional fuel.
The Navy
official said, “Investments in biofuel will produce a competitively priced --
and domestically produced -- alternative to conventional fuel. Such investments
help the Navy and the nation become less dependent on foreign oil and thus less
subject to volatility in oil prices that directly affect our readiness.”
[Maybe we’d be less reliant on foreign oil if WE COULD DRILL IN THE
U.S!]
The so-called
"drop-in" fuels are derived from seeds, algae and chicken
fat.
