Solazyme Hopes to Mass-Produce Algae Biodiesel in Three Years
I’ve often thought that algae could be one of the keys to our energy future, and now I’m more convinced than ever. In a conference call earlier today, Solazyme CEO Jonathan Wolfson said that his company is capable of producing millions of gallons of biodiesel derived from algae within 3 years.
Solazyme is the first company to produce algae diesel that meets US standards, but until today their production timeline was unknown.
“The technology is moving a lot quicker than some people would expect,” Wolfson said.
