Another take on the subject...
"Biofuel" has become such a buzz word lately and apparent hallmark of green-ness and "sustainability" to the intellectually lazy. Many developers (like say those just looking to make a buck pushing their projects through)will use that and any other slime they can manage, to pull one over on the County and of course - the people.
I saw the maps of a certain Kau project which featured "biofuel" on what is obviously rugged a'a lava. It would never work in real life but this was supposed to make up for the golf course, parking lots, airstrip and resort in ecological terms.
If they really mean it, sure, be skeptical of biofuel. But if it's just a development scheme anyway, be skeptical of the slimy developer.
