They emphasize local economic benefits resulting from biofuels production facilities, such as:
* One 49 MGY cellulosic ethanol plant generates about 194 jobs and $105.5 million annually in the first phase of operation <ref>Flanders and McKissick, "Economic Impact of Cellulosic Ethanol Production in Treutlen County" ''The University of Georgia Center Report'': CR-07-07 April 2007</ref>
* A 110 MGY Biodiesel plant adds $117 million to the local economy and creates 635 new jobs in all sectors of the economy.<ref>Urbanchuk, "The Economic Impact of the Biodiesel Industry" 2007</ref>
* Biofuels plants generate tax revenues and jobs in the feedstock supply chain, which represents income for farmers, baling operators and transportation.<ref>"Economic Impacts of Ethanol Production" ''Ethanol Across America'' Spring 2006</ref>
