Advanced biofuel

    Renewable fuel not produced from food crops such as cellulosic biofuel and biomass-based diesel.

    Alternative fuel

    A fuel that can serve or be used in place of another or an unconventional fuel choice.

    Diesel gallon equivalent (DGE)

    The amount of alternative fuel required to match the energy content of 1 gal of diesel fuel.

    Gasoline gallon equivalent (GGE)

    The amount of alternative fuel required to match the energy content of 1 gal of gasoline.

    Mixture calorific value

    The amount of energy contained per volume of fresh charge typically at stoichiometric conditions that can be introduced into the cylinders of an internal combustion engine.

    Renewable fuel

    A fuel created from resources that are never used up or can be replaced by new growth.
