No, he's saying the cost to recover the energy will increase. *

I think the confusion is based on the premis that the heat value of biomass
will remain stable while the heat value of petroleum increases. If the
biomass can be converted into a high quality product then the heat value of
biomass as measured in dollars should increase proportionally with the heat
value of petroleum measured in dollars.
