Pacific Ethanol Inc. (PEIX) produces and markets cellulose-based ethanol and bio-diesel in the United States. The Company intends to take advantage of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 which mandates the use of 36 billion gallons of ethanol in the United States by 2022.

In the report, the analyst notes:
"Global production remains a key driver of fossil fuels prices, with production in both OECD and ASEAN countries weighing heavily on total world production outputs. Most economists expect a rebound in durable goods production in Asia, especially China. China's real GDP growth is expected to reach 8% in 2010, officially, while GDP growth in the OECD countries is anticipated to be flat or rise slightly. Since the demand for energy correlates strongly with overall economic activity, oil and natural gas prices may continue higher as excess inventories are depleted and diminishing new supplies struggle to satisfy increasing demand beginning early in 2010, according to the Energy Information Administration (EIA). The condition of growing GDP dependent on increasing demand for a increasingly more expensive energy source is very bullish for the demand for biofuels.
"On January 6, the Company announced that production has resumed at its southern Idaho ethanol plant following a nearly year-long hiatus and a federal bankruptcy protection filing in May 2009 of the Company's subsidiary that runs the plant. The Company said that it intends to add 35 workers at the plant built to process as much as 60 million gallons of ethanol per year."
