what's your uncle's specialty?
the fact that the military has, as I understand it, ordered that logistics build the capacity to fuel military jets and equipment with US produced "green" fuels by 2040 or thereabouts, and algal biodiesel is one of the few liquid fuels with serious potential for that purpose, makes algal fuels something we will see research funding flow to.
alcohols, such as the still mythical cellulosic ethanol, have too low a specific impulse for military purposes, so one hears.
if we ever do get around to being able to make cellulosic alcohols that is.
