Abstract
⺠We model a United States bioenergy feedstock commodity market. ⺠Three buyers compete for biomass: biopower, biofuels, and foreign exports. ⺠The presented methodology improves on dynamic economic equilibrium theory. ⺠With current policy incentives and ignoring exports, biofuels dominates the market. ⺠Overseas biomass demand could dominate unless a CO2-limiting policy is enacted.
