Figure 3. Simulated potential cumulative government spending (relative to 2010) on incentives in the reference case versus no sunset case. ‘Loan guarantee exposure’ does not represent actual spending, but rather the potential cost of defaults of loans guaranteed by the government; ‘downstream’ combines ethanol storage, distribution, and end-use.

Table 2. The ‘reference incentive case’: inputs that produce a moderate, sustained industry takeoff.
Figure 5. Effect of removing downstream infrastructure constraints. ‘Full Coverage’ refers to a scenario where all storage terminals and dispensing stations can handle ethanol.
