from RawAN: "QUESTION WHETHER THE TOTAL JOB COULD BE DONE FOR THE "CLAIMED" $160 or $170 PER METRIC TON!"

Based on a delivered roundwood price of $25 to $35 per green ton, the cost of per tonne pellet feedstock is estimated at the range from $50 to $70. Some researchers estimated the delivered costs of forest-based feedstock to be around $70/dry ton by supply chain and economic modeling, which could also serve as a reference for per tonne pellet feedstock cost (Gonzalez et al., 2011).


....THIS is NOT based on hemp, which would dramatically reduce pellet price costs while increasing yield.
