The B-RREADI America Challenge will help communities turn their local biomass resources into jobs. In just a few short years, BDO Zone Ratings have already lined up over $4 billion in new biofuel projects, with another $30 billion in the pipeline. Now, through the B-RREADI America Challenge, communities have the chance to win awards that bring this proven tool to their own region.
The B-RREADI America Challenge provides awards that fund and promote independent BDO Zone Ratings—market-based economic development instruments that prove a community’s readiness for biomanufacturing. With these ratings, communities gain the visibility and credibility to attract new projects, global investors, and long-term partners from across the globe.
Farmers, forestry communities, and cooperatives are sitting on untapped potential. Every year, crop residues and forest byproducts go underutilized while industries seek reliable, low-carbon feedstocks. BDO Zone Ratings close that gap, showing the world that American communities are project-ready, investment-ready, and ready to lead with new biomanufacturing.
By awarding BDO Zone Ratings to qualifying applicant communities across the country, B-RREADI America is creating a national network of project-ready communities. Together, we’re making the United States the recognized best place in the world to grow new biomanufacturing projects—anchored in the strength of its farmers, forestry communities, and cooperatives.
Awards provide BDO Zone Ratings, which proves ‘regional readiness’ for bio-manufacturing projects, attracts new project developers– and creates jobs.
New markets for communities and more stable prices for farmers, forestry communities, and co-ops.
Independent, investment-grade BDO Zone ratings unlock capital and drive investment.
If you’re a cooperative, forest or farming community, or local development authority, the B-RREADI America Challenge is your opportunity to bring investment, jobs, and global attention to your region. This is more than an award—it’s a catalyst for lasting economic transformation.
