PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary provides an overview of certain information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus and does not contain all of the information that you should consider or that may be important to you. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire Prospectus carefully, including the “Risk Factors” section, the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements. In this Prospectus, the terms “BlueFire,” “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to BlueFire Renewables, Inc. and our operating subsidiary.

Our Company

We are BlueFire Renewables, Inc., a Nevada corporation. Our goal is to develop, own and operate high-value carbohydrate-based transportation fuel plants, or biorefineries, to produce ethanol, a viable alternative to fossil fuels, and to provide professional services to biorefineries worldwide. Our biorefineries will convert widely available, inexpensive, organic materials such as agricultural residues, high-content biomass crops, wood residues and cellulose from municipal solid wastes into ethanol. This versatility enables us to consider a wide variety of feedstocks and locations in which to develop facilities to become a low cost producer of ethanol. We have licensed for use a patented process from Arkenol, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Arkenol”), to produce ethanol from cellulose (the “Arkenol Technology”). We are the exclusive North America licensee of the Arkenol Technology. We may also utilize certain biorefinery related rights, assets, work-product, intellectual property and other know-how related to 19 ethanol project opportunities originally developed by ARK Energy, Inc, a Nevada corporation, to accelerate our deployment of the Arkenol Technology.

Company History

We are a Nevada corporation that was initially organized as Atlanta Technology Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, on October 12, 1993. The Company was re-named Docplus.net Corporation on December 31, 1998, and further re-named Sucre Agricultural Corp. (“Sucre”) and re-domiciled as a Nevada corporation on March 6, 2006. Finally, on May 24, 2006, in anticipation of the reverse merger by which it would acquire BlueFire Ethanol, Inc. (“BlueFire”), a privately held Nevada corporation organized on March 28, 2006, as described below, the Company was re-named to BlueFire Ethanol Fuels, Inc.

On June 27, 2006, the Company completed a reverse merger (the “Reverse Merger”) with BlueFire Ethanol, Inc. (“BlueFire Ethanol”). At the time of Reverse Merger, the Company was a blank-check company and had no operations, revenues or liabilities. The only asset possessed by the Company was $690,000 in cash which continued to be owned by the Company at the time of the Reverse Merger. In connection with the Reverse Merger, the Company issued BlueFire Ethanol 17,000,000 shares of common stock, approximately 85% of all of the outstanding common stock of the Company, for all the issued and outstanding BlueFire Ethanol common stock. The Company stockholders retained 4,028,264 shares of Company common stock. As a result of the Reverse Merger, BlueFire Ethanol became our wholly-owned subsidiary. On June 21, 2006, prior to and in anticipation of the Reverse Merger, Sucre sold 3,000,000 shares of common stock to two related investors in a private offering of shares pursuant to Rule 504 for proceeds of $1,000,000.

On July 20, 2010, the Company changed its name to BlueFire Renewables, Inc. to more accurately reflect our primary business plan expanding the focus from just building cellulosic ethanol projects to include other advanced biofuels, biodiesel, and other drop-in biofuels as well as synthetic lubricants.

The Company’s shares of common stock began trading under the symbol “BFRE.PK” on the Pink Sheets of the National Quotation Bureau on July 11, 2006 and later began trading on the OTCBB under the symbol “BFRE.OB” on June 19, 2007. On February 10, 2011, the closing price of our Common Stock was $0.46 per share.

Our executive offices are located at 31 Musick, Irvine, California 92618 and our telephone number at such office is (949) 588-3767.

Recent Developments

In 2009, BlueFire completed the engineering package for the Lancaster Biorefinery, and finalized the Front-End Loading (FEL) 3 stage of engineering for the Lancaster Biorefinery. FEL is the process for conceptual development of processing industry projects. This process is used in the petrochemical, refining, and pharmaceutical industries. Front-End Loading is also referred to as Front-End Engineering Design (FEED). There are three stages in the FEL process:

FEL-1	FEL-2	FEL-3

* Material Balance	* Preliminary Equipment Design	* Purchase Ready Major Equipment Specifications

* Energy Balance	* Preliminary Layout	* Definitive Estimate

* Project Charter	* Preliminary Schedule	* Project Execution Plan

	* Preliminary Estimate	* Preliminary 3D Model

		* Electrical Equipment List

		* Line List

		* Instrument Index

In July 2008, BlueFire signed a teaming agreement with Amalgamated Research, Inc. (“ARI”) for the exclusive right to use its Simulated Moving Bed Chromatographic Separation (“SMB”) technology for the separation of concentrated sulfuric acid and simple sugars. By using ARI’s SMB, BlueFire recovers approximately 99% of the entrained sugars in the acid/sugar stream.

In July 2008, BlueFire was granted a conditional-use permit from the County of Los Angeles, Department of Regional Planning, to permit the construction of the Lancaster Biorefinery. However, a subsequent appeal of the county decision pushed the effective date of the now non-appealable permit approval to December 12, 2008.

On February 12, 2009, we were issued our Authority to Construct permit by the Antelope Valley Air Quality Management District.

On October 15, 2009, BlueFire announced the strategic relocation of its second planned biorefinery (DOE Facility) to Fulton, Mississippi.

The Offering

On January 19, 2011, we executed a Purchase Agreement and a Registration Rights Agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC, pursuant to which LPC has purchased 428,571 shares of our common stock together with warrants to purchase 428,571 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.55 per share, for total consideration of $150,000. The warrants have a term of five years. Under the Purchase Agreement, we also have the right to sell to LPC up to an additional $9,850,000 of our common stock at our option as described below.

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we are filing this registration statement and prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) covering shares that have been issued or may be issued to LPC under the Purchase Agreement. We do not have the right to commence any additional sales of our shares to LPC until the SEC has declared effective the registration statement of which this Prospectus is a part. After the registration statement is declared effective, over approximately 30 months, generally we have the right to direct LPC to purchase up to an additional $9,850,000 of our common stock in amounts up to $35,000 as often as every two business days under certain conditions. We can also accelerate the amount of our stock to be purchased under certain circumstances. No sales of shares may occur below $0.15 per share. There are no trading volume requirements or restrictions under the Purchase Agreement, and we will control the timing and amount of any sales of our common stock to Lincoln Park. The purchase price of the shares will be based on the market prices of our shares immediately preceding the time of sale as computed under the Purchase Agreement without any fixed discount. We may at any time in our sole discretion terminate the Purchase Agreement without fee, penalty or cost upon one business day notice. LPC may not assign or transfer its rights and obligations under the Purchase Agreement. We issued 600,000 shares of our stock to LPC as a commitment fee for entering into the agreement, and we may issue up to 600,000 shares pro rata as LPC purchases the up to the additional $9,850,000 of our stock as directed by us.

As of February 10, 2011, there were 28,555,400 shares outstanding (11,873,017 shares held by non-affiliates) excluding the 1,028,571 shares which we have already issued and are offered by LPC pursuant to this Prospectus. 3,900,000 shares are offered hereby consisting of 428,571 shares together with 428,571 shares underlying a warrant, which are not included in this offering, that we have sold to LPC for $150,000, 600,000 shares that we issued as a commitment fee and 2,871,429 shares, of which 600,000 shares that we may issue pro rata as up to the additional $9,850,000 of our stock is purchased by LPC, the remainder representing shares we may sell to LPC under the Purchase Agreement. If all of the 3,900,000 shares offered by LPC hereby were issued and outstanding as of the date hereof, such shares would represent approximately 12.02% of the total common stock outstanding or approximately 24.73% of the non-affiliates shares outstanding, as adjusted, as of the date hereof. The number of shares ultimately offered for sale by LPC is dependent upon the number of shares that we sell to LPC under the Purchase Agreement. If we elect to issue more than the 3,900,000 shares offered under this prospectus, which we have the right but not the obligation to do, we must first register under the Securities Act any additional shares we may elect to sell to Lincoln Park before we can sell such additional shares.

RISK FACTORS

This registration statement contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “should,” or “anticipation” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth below and elsewhere in this Registration Statement. The following risk factors should be considered carefully in addition to the other information in this Registration Statement, before purchasing any of the Company’s securities.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY

SINCE INCEPTION, WE HAVE HAD LIMITED OPERATIONS AND HAVE INCURRED NET LOSSES OF $29,418,413 AND WE NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO EXECUTE OUR BUSINESS PLAN.

We have had limited operations and have incurred net losses of approximately $29,400,000 for the period from March 28, 2006 (Inception) through September 30, 2010, of which approximately $23,000,000 was cash used in our operating activities. We have generated revenues from consulting of approximately $116,000 and approximately $5,866,000 in grant revenue from the DOE for total revenues of approximately $5,982,000, and no revenues from operations. We have yet to begin ethanol production or construction of ethanol producing plants. Since the Reverse Merger, we have been engaged in developmental activities, including developing a strategic operating plan, plant engineering and development activities, entering into contracts, hiring personnel, developing processing technology, and raising private capital. Our continued existence is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional debt and/or equity financing. We are uncertain given the economic landscape when to anticipate the beginning construction of a plant given the availability of capital. We estimate the total cost including contingencies to be in the range of approximately $100 million to $125 million for our first plant. We plan to raise additional funds through project financings, grants and/or loan guarantees, or through future sales of our common stock, until such time as our revenues are sufficient to meet our cost structure, and ultimately achieve profitable operations. There is no assurance we will be successful in raising additional capital or achieving profitable operations. Wherever possible, our Board of Directors will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of restricted shares of our common stock. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing shareholders may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material.

OUR CELLULOSE-TO-ETHANOL TECHNOLOGIES ARE UNPROVEN ON A LARGE-SCALE COMMERCIAL BASIS AND PERFORMANCE COULD FAIL TO MEET PROJECTIONS, WHICH COULD HAVE A DETRIMENTAL EFFECT ON THE LONG-TERM CAPITAL APPRECIATION OF OUR STOCK.

While production of ethanol from corn, sugars and starches is a mature technology, newer technologies for production of ethanol from cellulose biomass have not been built at large commercial scales. The technologies being utilized by us for ethanol production from biomass have not been demonstrated on a commercial scale. All of the tests conducted to date by us with respect to the Arkenol Technology have been performed on limited quantities of feedstocks, and we cannot assure you that the same or similar results could be obtained at competitive costs on a large-scale commercial basis. We have never utilized these technologies under the conditions or in the volumes that will be required to be profitable and cannot predict all of the difficulties that may arise. It is possible that the technologies, when used, may require further research, development, design and testing prior to larger-scale commercialization. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that these technologies will perform successfully on a large-scale commercial basis or at all.

OUR BUSINESS EMPLOYS LICENSED ARKENOL TECHNOLOGY WHICH MAY BE DIFFICULT TO PROTECT AND MAY INFRINGE ON THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES.

We currently license our technology from Arkenol. Arkenol owns 11 U.S. patents, 21 foreign patents, and has one foreign patent pending and may file more patent applications in the future. Our success depends, in part, on our ability to use the Arkenol Technology, and for Arkenol to obtain patents, maintain trade secrecy and not infringe the proprietary rights of third parties. We cannot assure you that the patents of others will not have an adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business, that we will develop additional proprietary technology that is patentable or that any patents issued to us or Arkenol will provide us with competitive advantages or will not be challenged by third parties. Further, we cannot assure you that others will not independently develop similar or superior technologies, duplicate elements of the Arkenol Technology or design around it.

It is possible that we may need to acquire other licenses to, or to contest the validity of, issued or pending patents or claims of third parties. We cannot assure you that any license would be made available to us on acceptable terms, if at all, or that we would prevail in any such contest. In addition, we could incur substantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us for alleged infringement of another party’s patents in bringing patent infringement suits against other parties based on our licensed patents.

In addition to licensed patent protection, we also rely on trade secrets, proprietary know-how and technology that we seek to protect, in part, by confidentiality agreements with our prospective joint venture partners, employees and consultants. We cannot assure you that these agreements will not be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any breach, or that our trade secrets and proprietary know-how will not otherwise become known or be independently discovered by others.

OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS UPON ARNOLD KLANN, OUR CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, AND JOHN CUZENS, OUR CHIEF TECHNOLOGY OFFICER AND SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT.

We believe that our success will depend to a significant extent upon the efforts and abilities of (i) Arnold Klann, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, due to his contacts in the ethanol and cellulose industries and his overall insight into our business, and (ii) John Cuzens, our Chief Technology Officer and Senior Vice President for his technical and engineering expertise, including his familiarity with the Arkenol Technology. Our failure to retain Mr. Klann or Mr. Cuzens, or to attract and retain additional qualified personnel, could adversely affect our operations. We do not currently carry key-man life insurance on any of our officers.

COMPETITION FROM LARGE PRODUCERS OF PETROLEUM-BASED GASOLINE ADDITIVES AND OTHER COMPETITIVE PRODUCTS MAY IMPACT OUR PROFITABILITY.

Our proposed ethanol plants will also compete with producers of other gasoline additives made from other raw materials having similar octane and oxygenate values as ethanol. The major oil companies have significantly greater resources than we have to develop alternative products and to influence legislation and public perception of ethanol. These other companies also have significant resources to begin production of ethanol should they choose to do so.

We will also compete with producers of other gasoline additives having similar octane and oxygenate values as ethanol. An example of such other additives is MTBE, a petrochemical derived from methanol. MTBE costs less to produce than ethanol. Many major oil companies produce MTBE and because it is petroleum-based, its use is strongly supported by major oil companies. Alternative fuels, gasoline oxygenates and alternative ethanol production methods are also continually under development. The major oil companies have significantly greater resources than we have to market MTBE, to develop alternative products, and to influence legislation and public perception of MTBE and ethanol.

OUR BUSINESS PROSPECTS WILL BE IMPACTED BY CORN SUPPLY.

Our ethanol will be produced from cellulose, however currently most ethanol is produced from corn, which is affected by weather, governmental policy, disease and other conditions. A significant increase in the availability of corn and resulting reduction in the price of corn may decrease the price of ethanol and harm our business.

IF ETHANOL AND GASOLINE PRICES DROP SIGNIFICANTLY, WE WILL ALSO BE FORCED TO REDUCE OUR PRICES, WHICH POTENTIALLY MAY LEAD TO FURTHER LOSSES.

Prices for ethanol products can vary significantly over time and decreases in price levels could adversely affect our profitability and viability. The price of ethanol has some relation to the price of gasoline. The price of ethanol tends to increase as the price of gasoline increases, and the price of ethanol tends to decrease as the price of gasoline decreases. Any lowering of gasoline prices will likely also lead to lower prices for ethanol and adversely affect our operating results. We cannot assure you that we will be able to sell our ethanol profitably, or at all.

INCREASED ETHANOL PRODUCTION FROM CELLULOSE IN THE UNITED STATES COULD INCREASE THE DEMAND AND PRICE OF FEEDSTOCKS, REDUCING OUR PROFITABILITY.

New ethanol plants that utilize cellulose as their feedstock may be under construction or in the planning stages throughout the United States. This increased ethanol production could increase cellulose demand and prices, resulting in higher production costs and lower profits.

PRICE INCREASES OR INTERRUPTIONS IN NEEDED ENERGY SUPPLIES COULD CAUSE LOSS OF CUSTOMERS AND IMPAIR OUR PROFITABILITY.

Ethanol production requires a constant and consistent supply of energy. If there is any interruption in our supply of energy for whatever reason, such as availability, delivery or mechanical problems, we may be required to halt production. If we halt production for any extended period of time, it will have a material adverse effect on our business. Natural gas and electricity prices have historically fluctuated significantly. We purchase significant amounts of these resources as part of our ethanol production. Increases in the price of natural gas or electricity would harm our business and financial results by increasing our energy costs.

OUR BUSINESS PLAN CALLS FOR EXTENSIVE AMOUNTS OF FUNDING TO CONSTRUCT AND OPERATE OUR BIOREFINERY PROJECTS AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN SUCH FUNDING WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS, OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

Our business plan depends on the completion of up to 19 numerous biorefinery projects. Although each facility will have specific funding requirements, our proposed facility in Lancaster, CA will require approximately $100-$125 million to fund, and our proposed DOE facility in Fulton, MS will require an additional $260 million in addition to the approximate $88 million in grant funding currently allocated to the project. We will be relying on additional financing, and funding from such sources as Federal and State grants and loan guarantee programs. We are currently in discussions with potential sources of financing but no definitive agreements are in place. If we cannot achieve the requisite financing or complete the projects as anticipated, this could adversely affect our business, the results of our operations, prospects and financial condition.

WE RELY ON ACCESS TO FUNDING FROM THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY. IF WE CANNOT ACCESS GOVERNMENT FUNDING WE MAY BE UNABLE TO FINANCE OUR PROJECTS AND/OR OUR OPERATIONS.

Our operations have been financed to a large degree through funding provided by the U.S. Department of Energy. We rely on access to this funding as a source of liquidity for capital requirements not satisfied by the cash flow from our operations. If we are unable to access government funding our ability to finance our projects and/or operations and implement our strategy and business plan will be severely hampered. In 2008, the Company began to draw down on the Award 1 monies that were finalized with the U.S. Department of Energy. As our Fulton Project developed further, the Company was able to begin drawing down on the second phase of U.S. Department of Energy monies (“Award 2”). Although we finalized Award 1 with a total reimbursable amount of $6,425,564, and Award 2 with a total reimbursable amount of $81,134,686 and through February 10, 2011, we have an unreimbursed amount of approximately $365,628 available to us under Award 1, and approximately $78,875,127 under Award 2, only $3,382,375 of which has been made available as of the date above, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to receive grants, loan guarantees, or other funding for our projects from the U.S. Department of Energy.

RISKS RELATED TO GOVERNMENT REGULATION AND SUBSIDIZATION

FEDERAL REGULATIONS CONCERNING TAX INCENTIVES COULD EXPIRE OR CHANGE, WHICH COULD CAUSE AN EROSION OF THE CURRENT COMPETITIVE STRENGTH OF THE ETHANOL INDUSTRY.

Congress currently provides certain federal tax credits for ethanol producers and marketers. The current ethanol industry and our business initially depend on the continuation of these credits. The credits have supported a market for ethanol that might disappear without the credits. These credits may not continue beyond their scheduled expiration date or, if they continue, the incentives may not be at the same level. The revocation or amendment of any one or more of these tax incentives could adversely affect the future use of ethanol in a material way, and we cannot assure investors that any of these tax incentives will be continued. The elimination or reduction of federal tax incentives to the ethanol industry could have a material adverse impact on the industry as a whole.

LAX ENFORCEMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND ENERGY POLICY REGULATIONS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT DEMAND FOR ETHANOL.

Our success will depend in part on effective enforcement of existing environmental and energy policy regulations. Many of our potential customers are unlikely to switch from the use of conventional fuels unless compliance with applicable regulatory requirements leads, directly or indirectly, to the use of ethanol. Both additional regulation and enforcement of such regulatory provisions are likely to be vigorously opposed by the entities affected by such requirements. If existing emissions-reducing standards are weakened, or if governments are not active and effective in enforcing such standards, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected. Even if the current trend toward more stringent emission standards continues, we will depend on the ability of ethanol to satisfy these emissions standards more efficiently than other alternative technologies. Certain standards imposed by regulatory programs may limit or preclude the use of our products to comply with environmental or energy requirements. Any decrease in the emission standards or the failure to enforce existing emission standards and other regulations could result in a reduced demand for ethanol. A significant decrease in the demand for ethanol will reduce the price of ethanol, adversely affect our profitability and decrease the value of your stock.

COSTS OF COMPLIANCE WITH BURDENSOME OR CHANGING ENVIRONMENTAL AND OPERATIONAL SAFETY REGULATIONS COULD CAUSE OUR FOCUS TO BE DIVERTED AWAY FROM OUR BUSINESS AND OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS TO SUFFER.

Ethanol production involves the emission of various airborne pollutants, including particulate matter, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, volatile organic compounds and sulfur dioxide. The production facilities that we will build will discharge water into the environment. As a result, we are subject to complicated environmental regulations of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and regulations and permitting requirements of the states where our plants are to be located. These regulations are subject to change and such changes may require additional capital expenditures or increased operating costs. Consequently, considerable resources may be required to comply with future environmental regulations. In addition, our ethanol plants could be subject to environmental nuisance or related claims by employees, property owners or residents near the ethanol plants arising from air or water discharges. Ethanol production has been known to produce an odor to which surrounding residents could object. Environmental and public nuisance claims, or tort claims based on emissions, or increased environmental compliance costs could significantly increase our operating costs.

OUR PROPOSED NEW ETHANOL PLANTS WILL ALSO BE SUBJECT TO FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS REGARDING OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY.

Risks of substantial compliance costs and liabilities are inherent in ethanol production. We may be subject to costs and liabilities related to worker safety and job related injuries, some of which may be significant. Possible future developments, including stricter safety laws for workers and other individuals, regulations and enforcement policies and claims for personal or property damages resulting from operation of the ethanol plants could reduce the amount of cash that would otherwise be available to further enhance our business.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK AND THIS OFFERING.

THERE IS NO LIQUID MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK.

Our shares are traded on the OTCBB and the trading volume has historically been very low. An active trading market for our shares may not develop or be sustained. We cannot predict at this time how actively our shares will trade in the public market or whether the price of our shares in the public market will reflect our actual financial performance.

OUR COMMON STOCK PRICE HAS FLUCTUATED CONSIDERABLY AND STOCKHOLDERS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RESELL THEIR SHARES AT OR ABOVE THE PRICE AT WHICH SUCH SHARES WERE PURCHASED.

The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly. From July 11, 2006, the day we began trading publicly as BFRE.PK, and February 10, 2011, traded as BFRE.OB, the high and low price for our common stock has been $7.90 and $0.23 per share, respectively. Our share price has fluctuated in response to various factors, including not yet beginning construction of our first plant, needing additional time to organize engineering resources, issues relating to feedstock sources, trying to locate suitable plant locations, locating distributors and finding funding sources.

OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE CONSIDERED “A PENNY STOCK” AND MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO SELL.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. The market price of our common stock has been for much of its trading history since July 11, 2006, and may continue to be less than $5.00 per share, and therefore may be designated as a “penny stock” according to SEC rules. This designation requires any broker or dealer selling these securities to disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities. These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell our common stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their shares.

COMPLIANCE AND CONTINUED MONITORING IN CONNECTION WITH CHANGING REGULATION OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND PUBLIC DISCLOSURE MAY RESULT IN ADDITIONAL EXPENSES.

Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure may create uncertainty regarding compliance matters. New or changed laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations in many cases. As a result, their application in practice may evolve over time. We are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure. Complying with evolving interpretations of new or changed legal requirements may cause us to incur higher costs as we revise current practices, policies and procedures, and may divert management time and attention from the achievement of revenue generating activities to compliance activities. If our efforts to comply with new or changed laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to uncertainties related to practice, our reputation might be harmed which would could have a significant impact on our stock price and our business. In addition, the ongoing maintenance of these procedures to be in compliance with these laws, regulations and standards could result in significant increase in costs.

OUR PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDER HAS SIGNIFICANT VOTING POWER AND MAY TAKE ACTIONS THAT MAY NOT BE IN THE BEST INTEREST OF ALL OTHER STOCKHOLDERS.

The Company’s Chairman and President controls approximately 46.67% of its current outstanding shares of voting common stock. He may be able to exert significant control over our management and affairs requiring stockholder approval, including approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership may expedite approvals of company decisions, or have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control, adversely affect the market price of our common stock, or be in the best interests of all our stockholders.

YOU COULD BE DILUTED FROM THE ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL COMMON STOCK.

As of February 10, 2011, we had 29,583,971 shares of common stock outstanding, including the 1,028,571 shares which we have already issued and are offered by LPC pursuant to this Prospectus, and no shares of preferred stock outstanding. We are authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock. To the extent of such authorization, our Board of Directors will have the ability, without seeking stockholder approval, to issue additional shares of common stock or preferred stock in the future for such consideration as the Board of Directors may consider sufficient. The issuance of additional common stock or preferred stock in the future may reduce your proportionate ownership and voting power.

WE HAVE NOT AND DO NOT INTEND TO PAY ANY DIVIDENDS. AS A RESULT, YOU MAY ONLY BE ABLE TO OBTAIN A RETURN ON INVESTMENT IN OUR COMMON STOCK IF ITS VALUE INCREASES.

We have not paid dividends in the past and do not plan to pay dividends in the near future. We expect to retain earnings to finance and develop our business. In addition, the payment of future dividends will be directly dependent upon our earnings, our financial needs and other similarly unpredictable factors. As a result, the success of an investment in our common stock will depend upon future appreciation in its value. The price of our common stock may not appreciate in value or even maintain the price at which you purchased our shares.

WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY WITH SIGNIFICANT LOSSES AND EXPECT LOSSES TO CONTINUE FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

We have yet to establish any history of profitable operations. In two of the last three years we have incurred annual operating losses. Operating income/(losses) were $790,955, $(14,596,005) and $(10,476,864) for fiscal years ended 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively. As a result, at September 30, 2010 we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $13,747,000. In 2009 we have net income from continuing operations of $1,136,092. However, we incurred net losses from continuing operations in 2008 of $(14,370,594). Excluding 2009, our revenues have not been sufficient to sustain our operations. We expect that our revenues will not be sufficient to sustain our operations for the foreseeable future. Our profitability will require the successful commercialization of at least one commercial scale cellulose to ethanol facility. No assurances can be given when this will occur or that we will ever be profitable.

WE MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FINANCING TO SUSTAIN OUR OPERATIONS AND WITHOUT IT WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE OPERATIONS.

At September 30, 2010 we had a working capital deficit of approximately $202,000. We have an operating loss of $709,669 for the three months ended September 30, 2010, an operating loss of $1,702,486 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, and for the year ended 2009, operating income of $790,955. We do not currently have sufficient financial resources to fund our operations or those of our subsidiaries. Therefore, we need additional funds to continue these operations.

We may direct LPC to purchase up to an additional $9,850,000 worth of shares of our common stock under our agreement over a 30 month period generally in amounts of up to $35,000 every 2 business days. However, LPC shall not have the right nor the obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock on any business day that the market price of our common stock is less than $0.15. We are registering 3,900,000 shares pursuant to this prospectus. In the event we elect to issue more than the 3,900,000 shares offered hereby, we would be required to file a new registration statement and have it declared effective by the SEC. Assuming a purchase price of $0.46 per share (the closing sale price of the common stock on February 10, 2011) and the purchase by LPC of the full 2,793,164 purchase shares and along with issuance of 78,265 additional pro rata commitment shares registered under this offering, proceeds to us would only be $1,284,855.

The extent we rely on LPC as a source of funding will depend on a number of factors including, the prevailing market price of our common stock and the extent to which we are able to secure working capital from other sources. Specifically, LPC shall not have the right nor the obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock on any business days that the market price of our common stock is less than $0.15. If obtaining sufficient funding from LPC were to prove unavailable or prohibitively dilutive and if we are unable to sell enough of our products, we will need to secure another source of funding in order to satisfy our working capital needs. Even if we sell all $10,000,000 under the Purchase Agreement to LPC, we may still need additional capital to fully implement our business, operating and development plans. Should the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs be unavailable or prohibitively expensive when we require it, the consequences could be a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

THE SALE OF OUR COMMON STOCK TO LPC MAY CAUSE DILUTION AND THE SALE OF THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ACQUIRED BY LPC COULD CAUSE THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK TO DECLINE.

In connection with entering into the agreement, we authorized the issuance to LPC of up to 21,200,000 shares of our common stock. The number of shares ultimately offered for sale by LPC under this prospectus is dependent upon the number of shares purchased by LPC under the agreement. The purchase price for the common stock to be sold to LPC pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will fluctuate based on the price of our common stock. All 3,900,000 shares registered in this offering are expected to be freely tradable. It is anticipated that shares registered in this offering will be sold over a period of up to 30 months from the date of this prospectus. Depending upon market liquidity at the time, a sale of shares under this offering at any given time could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline. We can elect to direct purchases in our sole discretion but no sales may occur if the price of our common stock is below $0.15 and therefore, LPC may ultimately purchase all, some or none of the 2,871,429 shares of common stock not yet issued but registered in this offering. After it has acquired such shares, it may sell all, some or none of such shares. Therefore, sales to LPC by us under the agreement may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. The sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock under this offering, or anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales. However, we have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of our shares to LPC and the agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without any cost to us.

THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK IS HIGHLY VOLATILE.

The market price of our common stock has been and is expected to continue to be highly volatile. Factors, including announcements of technological innovations by us or other companies, regulatory matters, new or existing products or procedures, concerns about our financial position, operating results, litigation, government regulation, developments or disputes relating to agreements, patents or proprietary rights, may have a significant impact on the market price of our stock. In addition, potential dilutive effects of future sales of shares of common stock by shareholders and by the Company, including LPC pursuant to this prospectus and subsequent sale of common stock by the holders of warrants and options could have an adverse effect on the market price of our shares.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

2006 INCENTIVE AND NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION PLAN, AS AMENDED

In order to compensate our officers, directors, employees and/or consultants, on December 14, 2006 our Board of Directors approved and stockholders ratified by consent the 2006 Incentive and Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan has a total of 10,000,000 shares reserved for issuance.

On October 16, 2007, the Board of Directors reviewed the Plan. As such, it determined that the Plan was to be used as a comprehensive equity incentive program for which the Board of Directors serves as the plan administrator and, therefore, amended the Plan (the “Amended and Restated Plan”) to add the ability to grant restricted stock awards.

Under the Amended and Restated Plan, an eligible person in the Company’s service may acquire a proprietary interest in the Company in the form of shares or an option to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. The amendment includes certain previously granted restricted stock awards as having been issued under the Amended and Restated Plan.

As of February 10, 2011, we have issued the following stock options and grants under the Amended and Restated Plan:

THIS DISCUSSION CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT RELATE TO FUTURE EVENTS OR OUR FUTURE FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE. THESE STATEMENTS INVOLVE KNOWN AND UNKNOWN RISKS, UNCERTAINTIES AND OTHER FACTORS THAT MAY CAUSE OUR ACTUAL RESULTS, LEVELS OF ACTIVITY, PERFORMANCE OR ACHIEVEMENTS TO BE MATERIALLY DIFFERENT FROM ANY FUTURE RESULTS, LEVELS OF ACTIVITY, PERFORMANCE OR ACHIEVEMENTS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED BY THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

We are a Nevada corporation with a goal to develop, own and operate high-value carbohydrate-based transportation fuel plants, or biorefineries, to produce ethanol, a viable alternative to fossil fuels, and to provide professional services to biorefineries worldwide. Our biorefineries will convert widely available, inexpensive, organic materials such as agricultural residues, high-content biomass crops, wood residues and cellulose from municipal solid wastes into ethanol. This versatility enables us to consider a wide variety of feedstocks and locations in which to develop facilities to become a low cost producer of ethanol. We have licensed for use a patented process from Arkenol, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Arkenol”), to produce ethanol from cellulose (the “Arkenol Technology”). We are the exclusive North America licensee of the Arkenol Technology. We may also utilize certain biorefinery related rights, assets, work-product, intellectual property and other know-how related to 19 ethanol project opportunities originally developed by ARK Energy, Inc, a Nevada corporation, to accelerate our deployment of the Arkenol Technology.

PLAN OF OPERATION

Our primary business encompasses development activities culminating in the design, construction, ownership and long-term operation of cellulosic ethanol production biorefineries utilizing the licensed Arkenol Technology in North America. Our secondary business is providing support and operational services to Arkenol Technology based biorefineries worldwide. As such, we are currently in the development-stage of finding suitable locations and deploying project opportunities for converting cellulose fractions of municipal solid waste and other opportunistic feedstock into ethanol fuels.

Our initial planned biorefineries in North America are projected as follows:

A biorefinery that will process approximately 190 tons of green waste material annually to produce roughly 3.9 million gallons of ethanol annually. On November 9, 2007, we purchased the facility site which is located in Lancaster, California for the BlueFire Ethanol Lancaster project (“Lancaster Biorefinery”). Permit applications were filed on June 24, 2007, to allow for construction of the Lancaster Biorefinery. On or around July 23, 2008, the Los Angeles Planning Commission approved the use permit for construction of the plant. However, a subsequent appeal of the county decision, which BlueFire overcame, combined with the waiting period under the California Environmental Quality Act, pushed the effective date of the now non-appealable permit approval to December 12, 2008. On February 12, 2009, we were issued our Authority to Construct permit by the Antelope Valley Air Quality Management District. We have completed the detailed engineering and design on the project and are seeking funding in order to build the facility. We estimate the total construction cost to be in the range of approximately $100 million to $125 million for this first plant. This amount is significantly greater than our previous estimations communicated to the public. This is due in part to a combination of significant increases in materials costs on the world market from the last estimate till now, and the complexity of our first commercial deployment. At the end of 2008 and early 2009, prices for materials have declined, and we expect, that items like structural and specialty steel may continue to decline in price in 2010 with other materials of construction following suit. The cost approximations above do not reflect any decrease in raw materials or any savings in construction cost. We are currently in discussions with potential sources of financing for this facility but no definitive agreements are in place.

A biorefinery proposed for development and construction in conjunction with the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”), previously located in Southern California, and now located in Fulton, Mississippi, which will process approximately 700 metric dry tons of woody biomass, mill residue, and other cellulosic waste annually to produce approximately 19 million gallons of ethanol annually (“DOE Biorefinery”). We have received an Award from the DOE of up to $40 million for the Facility. On or around October 4, 2007, we finalized Award 1 for a total approved budget of just under $10,000,000 with the DOE. This award is a 60%/40% cost share, whereby 40% of approve costs may be reimbursed by the DOE pursuant to the total $40 million award announced in February 2007. On December 4, 2009, the DOE announced that the award for this project has been increased to a maximum of $88 million under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (“ARRA”) and the Energy Policy Act of 2005. As of September 30, 2010, BlueFire has been reimbursed approximately $7,201,000 from the DOE under this award. On or around February 23, 2010, we announced that we submitted an application for a $250 million dollar loan guarantee for this planned biorefinery. The application, filed under the DOE Program DE-FOA-0000140, which provides federal loan guarantees for projects that employ innovative energy efficiency, renewable energy, and advanced transmission and distribution technologies, was submitted on February 15, 2010, and serves as a phase one application in a two phase approval process. If approved, the loan guarantee will secure a substantial portion of the total costs to construct the facility, although there is no assurance that the loan guarantee will be approved. On September 10, 2010, we submitted the phase two application, which is only allowed after the initial phase one application is deemed to have met the initial threshold requirements fo the loan guarantee program. We are in the detailed engineering phase for this project and expect to have all necessary permits for this facility by the end of 2010, putting the Company on a path to commence construction shortly after the remainder of financing is secured. We estimate the total construction cost to be in the range of approximately $300 million which includes an approximately $100 million biomass power plant as part of the facility.

Several other opportunities are being evaluated by us in North America, although no definitive agreements have been reached.

BlueFire’s capital requirement strategy for its planned biorefineries are as follows:

Obtain additional operating capital from joint venture partnerships, Federal or State grants or loan guarantees, debt financing or equity financing to fund our ongoing operations and the development of initial biorefineries in North America. Although the Company is in discussions with potential financial and strategic sources of financing for their planned biorefineries no definitive agreements are in place.

The Energy Policy Act of 2005 provides for grants and loan guarantee programs to incentivize the growth of the cellulosic ethanol market. These programs include a Cellulosic Biomass Ethanol and Municipal Solid Waste Guarantee Program under which the DOE could provide loan guarantees up to $250 million per qualified project. BlueFire plans to pursue all available opportunities within the Energy Policy Act of 2005.

The 2008 Farm Bill, Title IX (Energy Title) provides grants for demonstration scale Biorefineries, and loan guarantees for commercial scale Biorefineries that produce advanced Biofuels (i.e., any fuel that is not corn-based). Section 9003 includes a Loan Guarantee Program under which the USDA could provide loan guarantees up to $250 million to fund development, construction, and retrofitting of commercial-scale refineries. Section 9003 also includes a grant program to assist in paying the costs of the development and construction of demonstration-scale biorefineries to demonstrate the commercial viability which can potentially fund up to 50% of project costs.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN BLUEFIRE’S BIOREFINERY ENGINEERING AND DEVELOPMENT

In 2010, BlueFire continued to develop the engineering package for the DOE Facility, and completed the Front-End Loading (FEL) 2 stage of engineering for the DOE Facility. FEL is the process for conceptual development of processing industry projects. This process is used in the petrochemical, refining, and pharmaceutical industries. Front-End Loading is also referred to as Front-End Engineering Design (FEED). BlueFire is currently working on completing the FEL-3 engineering for the DOE facility that will ready the facility for construction.

There are three stages in the FEL process:

FEL-1	FEL-2	FEL-3

* Material Balance	* Preliminary Equipment Design	* Purchase Ready Major Equipment Specifications

* Energy Balance	* Preliminary Layout	* Definitive Estimate

* Project Charter	* Preliminary Schedule	* Project Execution Plan

	* Preliminary Estimate	* Preliminary 3D Model

		* Electrical Equipment List

		* Line List

		* Instrument Index

On July 15, 2010, BlueFire announced the appointment of Roger L. Petersen to its Board of Directors. Mr. Petersen, age 59, currently serves as the President of Montana Horizons, LLC, a Montana limited liability company, which he founded in 2006, that provides support for utility mergers and acquisitions and energy development projects. From 1995 to 2006, Mr. Petersen served as the President of PPL Development Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PPL Corporation (NYSE: PPL) (“PPL”), which focused on corporate growth through asset acquisition and corporate mergers. From 2001 to 2003, Mr. Petersen served as the President of PPL Global, Inc, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PPL, which managed all international acquisitions and operations for PPL. From 1999 to 2001, Mr. Petersen served as President and Chief Executive Officer of PPL Montana, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PPL, which operates coal-fired and hydroelectric generating facilities at 13 sites in the State of Montana. Mr. Petersen also served as the Vice President and Chief Executive Officer of PPL Global, Inc, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PPL, from 1995 to 1998, which developed and acquired assets in the United Kingdom, Chile, El Salvadore, Peru, Bolivia, and the United States. He served on several corporate boards in the United Kingdom, Chile and El Salvador. Prior to joining PPL, he was Vice President of Operations for Edison Mission Energy, a subsidiary of Edison International, and held various engineering and project management positions at Fluor Engineers and Constructors. Mr. Petersen earned his B.S. in Mechanical engineering from South Dakota State University and his Masters of Engineering from California Polytechnic Institute. BlueFire believes that Mr. Petersen’s experience in the energy business as well as his experience in mergers and acquisitions will be a valuable asset to the Company.

On July 15, 2010, the board of directors of BlueFire, by unanimous written consent, approved the filing of a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada, changing the Company’s name from BlueFire Ethanol Fuels, Inc. to BlueFire Renewables, Inc. Our Board of Directors and management believe that changing our name to BlueFire Renewables, Inc. more accurately reflects our primary business plan expanding the focus from just building cellulosic ethanol projects to include other advanced biofuels, biodiesel, and other drop-in biofuels as well as synthetic lubricants. On July 20, 2010, the Certificate of Amendment was accepted by the Secretary of State of Nevada.

On August 4, 2010, the Company submitted a loan guarantee request to the USDA for $250 million for the DOE Biorefinery. The application is under review to determine if it meets the requirements set forth in the Section 9003 Loan Guarantee program. No time line is available for response on the application.

On September 10, 2010, the Company submitted the phase two application under the DOE Loan Guarantee Program. This phase requires more detail on contracts and engineering as well as environmental and general program requirements. This application was submitted pursuant to a letter the Company received during the third quarter inviting the Company to submit a phase two application. A phase two submittal is allowed only after the initial phase one application is deemed to have met the initial threshold requirements for the loan guarantee program.

On September 20, 2010, the Company announced an off-take agreement with Tenaska BioFuels, LLC (“TBF”) for the purchase and sale of all ethanol produced at the Company’s planned DOE Biorefinery. Pricing of the 15-year contract follows a market-based formula structured to capture the premium allowed for cellulosic ethanol compared to corn-based ethanol giving the Company a credit worthy contract to support financing of the project. Despite the long-term nature of the contract, the Company is not precluded from the upside in the coming years as fuel prices rise. TBF, a marketing affiliate of Tenaska, provides procurement and marketing, supply chain management, physical delivery, and financial services to customers in the agriculture and energy markets, including the ethanol and biodiesel industries. In business since 1987, Tenaska is one of the largest independent power producers.

On September 20, 2010, the Company announced a contract with Cooper Marine & Timberlands to provide feedstock for the Company’s planned DOE Biorefinery for a period of up to 15 years. Under the agreement, Cooper Marine & Timberlands ("CMT") will supply the project with all of the feedstock required to produce approximately 19-million gallons of ethanol per year from locally sourced cellulosic materials such as wood chips, forest residual chips, pre-commercial thinnings and urban wood waste such as construction waste, storm debris, land clearing; or manufactured wood waste from furniture manufacturing. Under the Agreement, CMT will pursue a least-cost strategy for feedstock supply made possible by the project site's proximity to feedstock sources and the flexibility of BlueFire's process to use a wide spectrum of cellulosic waste materials in pure or mixed forms. CMT, with several chip mills in operation in Mississippi and Alabama, is a member company of Cooper/T. Smith one of America's oldest and largest stevedoring and maritime related firms with operations on all three U.S. coasts and foreign operations in Central and South America.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Nine months Ended September 30, 2010 Compared to the nine months Ended September 30, 2009

Revenue

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, was approximately $538,000 and $4,106,000, respectively, and was primarily related to a federal grant from the DOE. The decrease in revenue for this time period is primarily attributable to a September 2009 one-time $3.8 million DOE receivable representing reimbursements for expenditures from 2007 through the nine months of 2009. The grant generally provides for reimbursement in connection with related development and construction costs involving commercialization of our technologies. In addition, reimbursements from the DOE that relate to construction-in-progress are netted against construction-in-progress (contra-asset) instead of being recorded as revenue. The Company was not capitalizing construction-in-progress during the 2009 year.

Project Development

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, our project development costs were approximately $957,000, compared to project development costs of $947,000 for the same period during 2009. The increase in project development costs is due to the increased activity in the design and engineering development of the Fulton Plant in the first quarter prior to commencement of capitalization.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and Administrative Expenses were approximately $1,284,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $1,799,000 for the same period in 2009. The decrease in general and administrative costs is mainly due to the increased activity at the project level, mostly related to the Fulton facility.

Interest Income

Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, was approximately $1,100, compared to $7,400 for the same period in 2009, in each case, related to funds invested. The decrease in interest income from the same period in 2009 is mainly due to the fact that our investment account balance was depleted as we used the funds in operations, and that our rate of return on the account decreased dramatically as it was tied to short-term interest rates.

Year Ended December 31, 2009 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2008

Revenue from Department of Energy Grant

Revenue in 2009 was approximately $4,318,000 and was primarily related to a federal grant from the United States Department of Energy, (“U.S. DOE”or “DOE”). The grant generally provides for reimbursement in connection with related development and construction costs involving commercialization of our technologies.

Project Development

In 2009, our project development costs were approximately $1,307,000 compared to project development costs of $10,535,000 for the same period during 2008. Included in project development costs in 2009 and 2008, was approximately $522,000 and $4,901,000, respectively of expense incurred from various engineering firms for the design and development of the biorefineries. Included in project development costs in 2009 and 2008, was approximately $0 and $2,078,000, respectively of non-cash share-based compensation expense, incurred in connection with our 2007 and 2006 Stock Option awards. The decrease in project development costs is due to the decreased activity in the design and engineering development of the biorefineries with the plant design on Lancaster being substantially completed.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and Administrative Expenses were approximately $2,220,000 in 2009, compared to $4,136,000 for the same period in 2008. Included in general and administrative expenses in 2009 and 2008, was approximately $233,000 and $1,691,000, respectively of non-cash share-based compensation expense, incurred in connection with our 2007 and 2006 Stock Option award. The decrease in general and administrative costs is mainly due to a decrease in share based compensation.

Interest Income

Interest income was approximately $8,000 in 2009, compared to approximately $225,000 in 2008, related to funds invested. The decrease in interest income from the same period in 2008 is mainly due to the fact that our investment account balance was depleted as we used the funds in operations, and that our rate of return on the account decreased dramatically as it was tied to short-term interest rates.

Related Party License Fee

In 2008 the Company incurred the remaining cost of the Arkenol technology license fee of $970,000. This is a one time fee, which was paid in full on March 11, 2009.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our principal sources of liquidity consist of cash and cash equivalents. Historically, we have funded our operations through financing activities consisting primarily of private placements of debt and equity securities with existing shareholders and outside investors. Our principal use of funds has been for the further development of our Biorefinery projects, for capital expenditures and general corporate expenses. As of September 30, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $518,000. However, as of February 10, 2011, the Company has approximately $623,667 in cash, due to a $200,000 loan made to the Company by the Company’s CEO on December 15, 2010, the sale of a 1% membership interest in the Company’s subsidiary, BlueFire Fulton Renewable Energy LLC on December 23, 2010, and a $150,000 initial purchase of the Company’s common stock under a $10 million purchase agreement signed on January 19, 2011. After the SEC has declared effective the registration statement related to the transaction, we have the right, in our sole discretion, over a 30-month period to sell our shares of common stock to LPC in amounts up to $500,000 per sale, depending on certain conditions as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, up to the aggregate commitment of $10 million. Management has estimated that operating expenses for the next twelve months will be approximately $1,800,000, excluding engineering costs related to the development of bio-refinery projects, and assuming no further cost cutting measures are taken. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In 2011, the Company intends to fund its operations with reimbursements under the Department of Energy contract, as well as seek additional funding in the form of equity or debt, including further investment at the project level. The Company expects the current resources available to them will only be sufficient for a period of a few months month unless significant additional cost cutting measures are taken. Management is currently implementing cost cutting measures including a reduction of headcount, reducing employee benefits and/or salary deferral, as needed. Management has determined that these general expenditures must be reduced and additional capital will be required in the form of equity or debt securities. In addition, if we cannot raise additional short term capital we may consume all of our cash reserved for operations. There are no assurances that management will be able to raise capital on terms acceptable to the Company. If we are unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, we may be required to reduce the scope of our planned development, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

We require the raising of additional funds from future equity and/or debt offerings, current and future grant opportunities to meet our liquidity needs going forward. Management believes that without raising additional financing and taking significant cost cutting measures that the Company’s cash will not be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for the next twelve month period. In addition, if we cannot raise additional short term capital we may consume all of our cash reserved for operations. There are no assurances that such financing will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. If, after utilizing the existing sources of capital available to the Company, further capital needs are identified and we are not successful in obtaining the financing, the Company may not continue to function as a going concern.

In addition to the above, as our biorefinery projects develop to the point of construction, we anticipate significant purchases of long lead time item equipment for construction.

The Company is currently in discussions with potential financial and strategic sources of financing for both the Lancaster and DOE Biorefineries but no definitive agreements are in place.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our management periodically evaluates the estimates and judgments made. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates as a result of different assumptions or conditions.

The methods, estimates, and judgment we use in applying our most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results we report in our financial statements. The SEC has defined “critical accounting policies” as those accounting policies that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results, and require us to make our most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based upon this definition, our most critical estimates relate to the fair value of warrant liabilities. We also have other key accounting estimates and policies, but we believe that these other policies either do not generally require us to make estimates and judgments that are as difficult or as subjective, or it is less likely that they would have a material impact on our reported results of operations for a given period. For additional information see Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to our reviewed financial statements appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report and our annual audited financial statements appearing on Form 10-K. Although we believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, they are based upon information presently available, and actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended authoritative guidance for improving disclosures about fair-value measurements. The updated guidance requires new disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair-value measurements including significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair-value measurements and information on purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair-value measurements. The guidance also clarified existing fair-value measurement disclosure guidance about the level of disaggregation, inputs, and valuation techniques. The guidance became effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2009, with an exception for the disclosures of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on the roll-forward of activity in Level 3 fair-value measurements. Those disclosures will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 105 “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (formerly SFAS No. 168 The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162). ASC 105 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. ASC 105, which changes the referencing of financial standards, is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company adopted ASC 105 during the three months ended September 30, 2009 with no impact to its financial statements, except for the changes related to the referencing of financial standards.

BUSINESS OF ISSUER

PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS OR SERVICES AND THEIR MARKETS

Our goal is to develop, own and operate high-value carbohydrate-based transportation fuel plants, or biorefineries, to produce ethanol, a viable alternative to fossil fuels, and to provide professional services to biorefineries worldwide. Our biorefineries will convert widely available, inexpensive, organic materials such as agricultural residues, high-content biomass crops, wood residues and cellulose from municipal solid wastes into ethanol. This versatility enables us to consider a wide variety of feedstocks and locations in which to develop facilities to become a low cost producer of ethanol.

We have licensed for use the Arkenol Technology, a patented process from Arkenol to produce ethanol from cellulose for sale into the transportation fuel market. We are the exclusive North America licensee of the Arkenol Technology.

ARKENOL TECHNOLOGY

The production of chemicals by fermenting various sugars is a well-accepted science. Its use ranges from producing beverage alcohol and fuel-ethanol to making citric acid and xantham gum for food uses. However, the high price of sugar and the relatively low cost of competing petroleum based fuel has kept the production of chemicals mainly confined to producing ethanol from corn sugar.

In the Arkenol Technology process, incoming biomass feedstocks are cleaned and ground to reduce the particle size for the process equipment. The pretreated material is then dried to a moisture content consistent with the acid concentration requirements for breaking down the biomass, then hydrolyzed (degrading the chemical bonds of the cellulose) to produce hexose and pentose (C5 and C6) sugars at the high concentrations necessary for commercial fermentation. The insoluble materials left are separated by filtering and pressing into a cake and further processed into fuel for other beneficial uses. The remaining acid-sugar solution is separated into its acid and sugar components. The separated sulfuric acid is recirculated and reconcentrated to the level required to breakdown the incoming biomass. The small quantity of acid left in the sugar solution is neutralized with lime to make hydrated gypsum which can be used as an agricultural soil conditioner. At this point the process has produced a clean stream of mixed sugars (both C6 and C5) for fermentation. In an ethanol production plant, naturally-occurring yeast, which Arkenol has specifically cultured by a proprietary method to ferment the mixed sugar stream, is mixed with nutrients and added to the sugar solution where it efficiently converts both the C6 and C5 sugars to fermentation beer (an ethanol, yeast and water mixture) and carbon dioxide. The yeast culture is separated from the fermentation beer by a centrifuge and returned to the fermentation tanks for reuse. Ethanol is separated from the now clear fermentation beer by conventional distillation technology, dehydrated to 200 proof and denatured with unleaded gasoline to produce the final fuel-grade ethanol product. The still bottoms, containing principally water and unfermented sugar, is returned to the process for economic water use and for further conversion of the sugars.

Simply put, the process separates the biomass into two main constituents: cellulose and hemicellulose (the main building blocks of plant life) and lignin (the “glue” that holds the building blocks together), converts the cellulose and hemicellulose to sugars, ferments them and purifies the fermentation liquids into ethanol and other end-products.

ARK ENERGY

BlueFire may also utilize certain biorefinery related rights, assets, work-product, intellectual property and other know-how related to nineteen (19) ethanol project opportunities originally developed by ARK Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation to accelerate BlueFire’s deployment of the Arkenol Technology. The opportunities consist of ARK Energy’s previous relationships, analysis, site development, permitting experience and market research on various potential project locations within North America. ARK Energy has transferred these assets to us and we valued these business assets based on management’s best estimates as to its actual costs of development. In the event we successfully finance the construction of a project that utilizes any of the transferred assets from ARK Energy, we are required to pay ARK Energy for the costs ARK Energy incurred in the development of the assets pertaining to that particular project or location. We did not incur the costs of a third party valuation but based our valuation of the assets acquired by (i) an arms length review of the value assigned by ARK Energy to the opportunities are based on the actual costs it incurred in developing the project opportunities, and (ii) anticipated financial benefits to us.

PILOT PLANTS

From 1994-2000, a test pilot biorefinery plant was built and operated by Arkenol in Orange, California to test the effectiveness of the Arkenol Technology using several different types of raw materials containing cellulose. The types of materials tested included: rice straw, wheat straw, green waste, wood wastes, and municipal solid wastes. Various equipment for use in the process was also tested and process conditions were verified leading to the issuance of the certain patents in support of the Arkenol Technology.In 2002, using the results obtained from the Arkenol California test pilot plant, JGC Corporation, based in Japan, built and operated a bench scale facility followed by another test pilot biorefinery plant in Izumi, Japan. At the Izumi plant, Arkenol retained the rights to the Arkenol Technology while the operations of the facility were controlled by JGC Corporation.

BIOREFINERY PROJECTS

WE ARE CURRENTLY IN THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE OF BUILDING BIOREFINERIES IN NORTH AMERICA.

We plan to use the Arkenol Technology and utilize JGC’s operations knowledge from the Izumi test pilot plant to assist in the design and engineering of our facilities in North America. MECS and Briderson Engineering, Inc. (“Brinderson”) provided the preliminary design package for our first facility and Brinderson has completed the detailed engineering design of the plant. We feel this completed design should provide the blueprint for subsequent plant constructions.

We intend to build a facility that will process approximately 190 tons of green waste material per day to produce roughly 3.9 million gallons of ethanol annually. In connection therewith, on November 9, 2007, we purchased the facility site which is located in Lancaster, California. Permit applications were filed on June 24, 2007, to allow for construction of the Lancaster facility. The Los Angeles County Planning Commission issued a Conditional Use Permit for the Lancaster Project in July of 2008. However, a subsequent appeal of the county decision, which BlueFire overcame, combined with the waiting period under the California Environmental Quality Act, pushed the effective date of the now non-appealable permit approval to December 12, 2008. On February 12, 2009 we were issued our Authority to Construct permit by the Antelope Valley Air Quality Management District.

		* Instrument Index

We estimate the total cost including contingencies to be in the range of approximately $100 million to $125 million for this first plant. This amount is significantly greater than our previous estimations communicated to the public. This is due in part to a combination of significant increases in materials costs on the world market from the last estimate till now, and the complexity of our first commercial deployment. At the end of 2008 and early 2009, prices for materials have declined, and we expect, that items like structural and specialty steel may continue to decline in price in 2010 with other materials of construction following suit. The cost approximations above do not reflect any decrease in raw materials or any savings in construction cost.

The uncertainties of the world credit markets have also caused a delay in the financing we needed to enable placement of equipment orders for the construction of our Lancaster Project and which would allow us to achieve a sustainable construction schedule after breaking ground. Hence, to insure a timely and continuous construction of the project, BlueFire’s board of directors determined it is prudent to delay Lancaster’s groundbreaking until all the necessary funds are in place. Project activities have advanced to a point that once credit is available, orders can be immediately placed and construction started. We remain optimistic in being able to raise the additional capital necessary once the new federal administration’s policies take hold and the capital markets normalize. We are currently in discussions with potential sources of financing for this facility, including opportunities for grants and loan guarantees, but no definitive agreements are in place.

We are also developing a facility for construction in a joint effort with the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”). This facility will be located in Fulton, Mississippi and will use approximately 700 metric dry tons of woody biomass, mill residue, and other cellulosic waste to produce approximately 19 million gallons of ethanol annually. Detailed engineering is in progress and we expect to have all necessary permits for this facility by the summer of 2010. We have received an Award from the DOE of up to $40 million for the Facility. On or around October 4, 2007, we finalized Award 1 for a total approved budget of just under $10,000,000 with the DOE. This award is a 60%/40% cost share, whereby 40% of approve costs may be reimbursed by the DOE pursuant to the total $40 million award announced in February 2007. December 4, 2009, the DOE announced that the award for this project has been increased to a maximum of $88 million under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (“ARRA”) and the Energy Policy Act of 2005. As of March 31, 2010, BlueFire has been reimbursed approximately $5,374,000 from the DOE under this award. On or around February 23, 2010, we announced that we submitted an application for a $250 million dollar loan guarantee for this planned biorefinery. The application, filed under the DOE Program DE-FOA-0000140, which provides federal loan guarantees for projects that employ innovative energy efficiency, renewable energy, and advanced transmission and distribution technologies, was submitted on February 15th, 2010 and serves as a phase one application in a two phase approval process. If approved, the loan guarantee will secure a substantial portion of the total costs to construct the facility, although there is no assurance that the loan guarantee will be approved. We are in the detailed engineering phase for this project and expect to have all necessary permits for this facility by this summer, putting the Company on a path to commence construction by the end of 2010.

Between the two proposed facilities (Lancaster, CA and Fulton, MS) we expect them to create more than 1,000 construction/manufacturing jobs and, once in operation, more than 100 new operations and maintenance jobs.

The Company is simultaneously researching and considering other suitable locations for other similar bio-refineries.

STATUS OF PUBLICLY ANNOUNCED NEW PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

On December 11, 2008, BlueFire announced a Professional Services Agreement (“PSA”) with Ubiex, Inc. a South Korean development company. Under the PSA, BlueFire will provide the preliminary engineering design package and technical support for Ubiex, Inc.

DISTRIBUTION METHODS OF THE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES

We will utilize existing ethanol distribution channels to sell the ethanol that is produced from our plants. For example, we will enter into an agreement with an existing refiner or blender to purchase the ethanol and sell it into the Southern California, and Mississippi transportation fuels market. Ethanol is currently mandated at a blend level of 10% in California which represents a 1+ billion gallon per year market. We are also exploring the potential of onsite blending of E85 (85% Ethanol, 15% gasoline) and direct marketing to fueling stations. There are approximately 1,900 E85 fueling stations in the United States.

COMPETITIVE BUSINESS CONDITIONS AND THE SMALL BUSINESS ISSUER’S COMPETITIVE POSITION IN THE INDUSTRY AND METHODS OF COMPETITION

COMPETITION

Most of the ethanol supply in the United States is derived from corn according to the Renewable Fuels Association (“RFA”) website (HTTP://WWW.ETHANOLRFA.ORG/) and as of February 28, 2009 is produced at approximately 201 facilities, ranging in size from 300,000 to 130 million gallons per year, located predominately in the corn belt in the Midwest.

Traditional corn-based production techniques are mature and well entrenched in the marketplace, and the entire industry’s infrastructure is geared toward corn as the principal feedstock.

With the Arkenol Technology, the principle difference from traditional processes apart from production technique is the acquisition and choice of feedstock. The use of a non-commodity based non-food related biomass feedstock enables us to use feedstock typically destined for disposal, i.e. wood waste, yard trimmings and general green waste. All ethanol producers regardless of production technique will fall subject to market fluctuation in the end product, ethanol.

Due to the feedstock variety we are able to process, we are able to locate production facilities in and around the markets where the ethanol will be consumed thereby giving us a competitive advantage against much larger traditional producers who must locate plants near their feedstock, i.e. the corn belt in the Midwest and ship the ethanol to the end market.

However, in the area of biomass-to-ethanol production, there are few companies, and no commercial production infrastructure is built. As we continue to advance our biomass technology platform, we are likely to encounter competition for the same technologies from other companies that are also attempting to manufacture ethanol from cellulosic biomass feedstocks.

Ethanol production is also expanding internationally. Ethanol produced or processed in certain countries in Central American and the Caribbean region is eligible for tariff reduction or elimination upon importation to the United States under a program known as the Caribbean Basin Initiative. Large ethanol producers, such as Cargill, have expressed interest in building dehydration plants in participating Caribbean Basin countries, such as El Salvador, which would convert ethanol into fuel-grade ethanol for shipment to the United States. Ethanol imported from Caribbean Basin countries may be a less expensive alternative to domestically produced ethanol and may affect our ability to sell our ethanol profitably.

There are approximately 21 next-generation biofuel companies that have received grants from the DOE for development purposes.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

On December 19, 2007 President Bush signed into law the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (Energy Act of 2007). The Energy Act of 2007 provides for an increase in the supply of alternative fuel sources by setting a mandatory Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) requiring fuel producers to use at least 36 billion gallons of biofuel by 2022, 16 billion gallon of which must come from cellulosic derived fuel. Additionally, the Energy Act of 2007 called for reducing U.S. demand for oil by setting a national fuel economy standard of 35 miles per gallon by 2020 – which will increase fuel economy standards by 40 percent and save billions of gallons of fuel.

In June 2008 the Food, Conservation and Energy Act of 2008 (Farm Bill) was signed into law. The 2008 Farm Bill also modified existing incentives, including ethanol tax credits and import duties and established a new integrated tax credit of $1.01/gallon for cellulosic biofuels. The Farm Bill also authorized new biofuels loan and grant programs, which will be subject to appropriations, likely starting with the FY2010 budget request.

On February 13, 2009, Congress passed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 at the urging of President Obama, who signed it into law four days later (“ARRA”). A direct response to the economic crisis, the Recovery Act has three immediate goals:

Create new jobs and save existing ones;

Spur economic activity and invest in long-term growth; and

Foster unprecedented levels of accountability and transparency in government spending.

The Recovery Act intends to achieve those goals by:

Providing $288 billion in tax cuts and benefits for millions of working families and businesses;

Increasing federal funds for education and health care as well as entitlement programs (such as extending unemployment benefits) by $224 billion;

Making $275 billion available for federal contracts, grants and loans; and

Requiring recipients of Recovery funds to report quarterly on how they are using the money. All the data is posted on Recovery.gov so the public can track the Recovery funds.

In addition to offering financial aid directly to local school districts, expanding the Child Tax Credit, and underwriting a process to computerize health records to reduce medical errors and save on health care costs, the Recovery Act is targeted at infrastructure development and enhancement. For instance, the Act plans investment in the domestic renewable energy industry and the weatherizing of 75 percent of federal buildings as well as more than one million private homes around the country.

Historically, producers and blenders had a choice of fuel additives to increase the oxygen content of fuels. MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether), a petroleum-based additive, was the most popular additive, accounting for up to 75% of the fuel oxygenate market. However, in the United States, ethanol is replacing MTBE as a common fuel additive. While both increase octane and reduce air pollution, MTBE is a presumed carcinogen which contaminates ground water. It has already been banned in California, New York, Illinois and 16 other states. Major oil companies have voluntarily abandoned MTBE and it is scheduled to be phased out under the Energy Policy Act. As MTBE is phased out, we expect demand for ethanol as a fuel additive and fuel extender to rise. A blend of 5.5% or more of ethanol, which does not contaminate ground water like MTBE, effectively complies with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency requirements for reformulated gasoline, which is mandated in most urban areas.

Ethanol is a clean, high-octane, high-performance automotive fuel commonly blended in gasoline to extend supplies and reduce emissions. In 2004, according to the American Coalition for Ethanol, 3% of all United States gasoline was blended with some percentage of ethanol. The most common blend is E10, which contains 10% ethanol and 90% gasoline. There is also growing federal government support for E85, which is a blend of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline.

Ethanol is a renewable fuel produced by the fermentation of starches and sugars such as those found in grains and other crops. Ethanol contains 35% oxygen by weight and, when combined with gasoline, it acts as an oxygenate, artificially introducing oxygen into gasoline and raising oxygen concentration in the combustion mixture with air. As a result, the gasoline burns more completely and releases less unburnt hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and other harmful exhaust emissions into the atmosphere. The use of ethanol as an automotive fuel is commonly viewed as a way to reduce harmful automobile exhaust emissions. Ethanol can also be blended with regular unleaded gasoline as an octane booster to provide a mid-grade octane product which is commonly distributed as a premium unleaded gasoline.

Studies published by the Renewable Fuel Association indicate that approximately 8.1 billion gallons of ethanol was consumed in 2008 in the United States and every automobile manufacturer approves and warrants the use of E10. Because the ethanol molecule contains oxygen, it allows an automobile engine to more completely combust fuel, resulting in fewer emissions and improved performance. Fuel ethanol has an octane value of 113 compared to 87 for regular unleaded gasoline. Domestic ethanol consumption has tripled in the last eight years, and consumption increases in some foreign countries, such as Brazil, are even greater in recent years. For instance, 40% of the automobiles in Brazil operate on 100% ethanol, and others use a mixture of 22% ethanol and 78% gasoline. The European Union and Japan also encourage and mandate the increased use of ethanol.

For every barrel of ethanol produced, the American Coalition for Ethanol estimates that 1.2 barrels of petroleum are displaced at the refinery level, and that since 1978, U.S. ethanol production has replaced over 14.0 billion gallons of imported gasoline or crude oil. According to a Mississippi State University Department of Agricultural Economics Staff Report in August 2003, a 10% ethanol blend results in a 25% to 30% reduction in carbon monoxide emissions by making combustion more complete. The same 10% blend lowers carbon dioxide emissions by 6% to 10%.

During the last 20 years, ethanol production capacity in the United States has grown from almost nothing to an estimated 7.6 billion gallons per year in 2008. In the United States, ethanol is primarily made from starch crops, principally from the starch fraction of corn. Consequently, the production plants are concentrated in the grain belt of the Midwest, principally in Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska and South Dakota.

In the United States, there are two principal commercial applications for ethanol. The first is as an oxygenate additive to gasoline to comply with clean air regulations. The second is as a voluntary substitute for gasoline - this is a purely economic choice by gasoline retailers who may make higher margins on selling ethanol-blended gasoline, provided ethanol is available in the local market. The U.S. gasoline market is currently approximately 170 billion gallons annually, so the potential market for ethanol (assuming only a 10% blend) is 17 billion gallons per year. Increasingly, motor manufacturers are producing flexible fuel vehicles (particularly sports utility vehicle models) which can run off ethanol blends of up to 85% (known as E85) in order to obtain exemptions from fleet fuel economy quotas. There are now in excess of 5 million flexible fuel vehicles on the road in the United States and automakers will produce several millions per year, offering further potential for significant growth in ethanol demand.

CELLULOSE TO ETHANOL PRODUCTION

In a 2002 report, “Outlook For Biomass Ethanol Production Demand,” the U.S. Energy Information Administration found that advancements in production technology of ethanol from cellulose could reduce costs and result in production increases of 40% to 160% by 2010. Biomass (cellulosic feedstocks) includes agricultural waste, woody fibrous materials, forestry residues, waste paper, municipal solid waste and most plant material. Like waste starches and sugars, they are often available for relatively low cost, or are even free. However, cellulosic feedstocks are more abundant, global and renewable in nature. These waste streams, which would otherwise be abandoned, land-filled or incinerated, exist in populated metropolitan areas where ethanol prices are higher.

SOURCES AND AVAILABILITY OF RAW MATERIALS

The U.S. DOE and USDA in its April 2005 report “BIOMASS AS FEEDSTOCK FOR A BIOENERGY AND BIOPRODUCTS INDUSTRY: THE TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY OF A BILLION-TON ANNUAL SUPPLY” found that about one billion tons of cellulosic materials from agricultural and forest residues are available to produce more than one-third of the current U.S. demand for transportation fuels.

DEPENDENCE ON ONE OR A FEW MAJOR CUSTOMERS

Currently, we have no dependence on one or a few major customers. We are negotiating definitive agreements but no definitive agreements have been signed as of yet. See “DISTRIBUTION METHODS OF THE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES.”

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, LICENSES, FRANCHISES, CONCESSIONS, ROYALTY AGREEMENTS OR LABOR CONTRACTS

On March 1, 2006, we entered into a Technology License Agreement with Arkenol, for use of the Arkenol Technology. Arkenol holds the following patents in relation to the Arkenol Technology: 11 U.S. patents, 21 foreign patents, and one pending foreign patent. According to the terms of the agreement, we were granted an exclusive, non-transferable, North American license to use and to sub-license the Arkenol technology. The Arkenol Technology, converts cellulose and waste materials into ethanol and other high value chemicals. As consideration for the grant of the license, we are required to make a onetime payment of $1,000,000 at first project funding and for each plant make the following payments: (1) royalty payment of 3% of the gross sales price for sales by us or our sub-licensees of all products produced from the use of the Arkenol Technology (2) and a onetime license fee of $40.00 per 1,000 gallons of production capacity per plant. According to the terms of the agreement, we made a onetime exclusivity fee prepayment of $30,000 during the period ended December 31, 2006. As of March 31, 2010, we have paid Arkenol in full for the license. All sub-licenses issued by us will provide for payments to Arkenol of any other license fees and royalties due.

NEED FOR ANY GOVERNMENT APPROVAL OF PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS OR SERVICES

We are not subject to any government oversight for our current operations other than for corporate governance and taxes. However, the production facilities that we will be constructing will be subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to the discharge of materials into the air, water and ground, the generation, storage, handling, use, transportation and disposal of hazardous materials, and the health and safety of our employees. In addition, some of these laws and regulations will require our facilities to operate under permits that are subject to renewal or modification. These laws, regulations and permits can often require expensive pollution control equipment or operational changes to limit actual or potential impacts to the environment. A violation of these laws and regulations or permit conditions can result in substantial fines, natural resource damages, criminal sanctions, permit revocations and/or facility shutdowns.

EFFECT OF EXISTING OR PROBABLE GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS ON THE BUSINESS

Currently, the federal government encourages the use of ethanol as a component in oxygenated gasoline. This is a measure to both protect the environment, and, to utilize biofuels as a viable renewable domestic fuel to reduce U.S. dependence on foreign oil.

The ethanol industry is heavily dependent on several economic incentives to produce ethanol, including federal ethanol supports. Ethanol sales have been favorably affected by the Clean Air Act amendments of 1990, particularly the Federal Oxygen Program which became effective November 1, 1992. The Federal Oxygen Program requires the sale of oxygenated motor fuels during the winter months in certain major metropolitan areas to reduce carbon monoxide pollution. Ethanol use has increased due to a second Clean Air Act program, the Reformulated Gasoline Program. This program became effective January 1, 1995, and requires the sale of reformulated gasoline in nine major urban areas to reduce pollutants, including those that contribute to ground level ozone, better known as smog. Increasingly stricter EPA regulations are expected to increase the number of metropolitan areas deemed in non-compliance with Clean Air Standards, which could increase the demand for ethanol.

On October 22, 2004, President Bush signed H.R. 4520, which contained the Volumetric Ethanol Excise Tax Credit (“VEETC”) and amended the federal excise tax structure effective as of January 1, 2005. Before this, ethanol-blended fuel was taxed at a lower rate than regular gasoline (13.2 cents on a 10% blend). Under VEETC, the existing ethanol excise tax exemption is eliminated, thereby allowing the full federal excise tax of 18.4 cents per gallon of gasoline to be collected on all gasoline and allocated to the highway trust fund. The bill created a new volumetric ethanol excise tax credit of 51 cents per gallon of ethanol blended. Refiners and gasoline blenders would apply for this credit on the same tax form as before only it would be a credit from general revenue, not the highway trust fund. Based on volume, the VEETC is expected to allow much greater refinery flexibility in blending ethanol. VEETC is scheduled to expire in 2013. The 2008 Farm Bill amended this credit: Starting the year after 7.5 billion gallons of ethanol are produced and/or imported in the United States, the value of the credit will be lowered to 45 cents per gallon—it is expected that the United States passed this mark in 2008, leading to a reduction in the credit starting in 2009.

The Energy Policy Act of 2005 established a renewable fuel standard (RFS) to increase in the supply of alternative sources for automotive fuels. The RFS was expanded by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. The RFS requires the blending of renewable fuels (including ethanol and biodiesel) in transportation fuel. In 2008, fuel suppliers must blend 9.0 billion gallons of renewable fuel into gasoline; this requirement increases annually to 36 billion gallons in 2022. The expanded RFS also specifically mandates the use of “advanced biofuels”—fuels produced from non-corn feedstocks and with 50% lower lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions than petroleum fuel—starting in 2009. Of the 36 billion gallons required in 2022, at least 21 billion gallons must be advanced biofuel. There are also specific quotas for cellulosic biofuels and for biomass-based diesel fuel. On May 1, 2007, EPA issued a final rule on the RFS program detailing compliance standards for fuel suppliers, as well as a system to trade renewable fuel credits between suppliers. EPA has not yet initiated a rulemaking on the lifecycle analysis methods necessary to categorize fuels as advanced biofuels. While this program is not a direct subsidy for the construction of biofuels plants, the market created by the renewable fuel standard is expected to stimulate growth of the biofuels industry.

The Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 (2008 Farm Bill) provides for, among other things, grants for demonstration scale Biorefineries, and loan guarantees for commercial scale Biorefineries that produce advanced Biofuels (i.e., any fuel that is not corn-based). Section 9003 includes a Loan Guarantee Program under which the U.S.D.A. could provide loan guarantees up to $250 million to fund development, construction, and retrofitting of commercial-scale refineries. Section 9003 also includes a grant program to assist in paying the costs of the development and construction of demonstration-scale biorefineries to demonstrate the commercial viability which can potentially fund up to 50% of project costs.

The ARRA, passed into law in February 2009 makes $275 billion available for federal contracts, grants, and loans, some of which is devoted to investment into the domestic renewable energy industry.

Some other noteworthy governmental actions regarding the production of biofuels are as follows:

Small Ethanol Producer Credit:

A tax credit valued at 10 cents per gallon of ethanol produced. The credit may be claimed on the first 15 million gallons of ethanol produced by a small producer in a given year. Qualified applicants are any ethanol producer with production capacity below 60 million gallons per year. This credit was scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2010, but was recently renewed through 2011.

Credit for Production of Cellulosic Biofuel:

An integrated tax credit whereby Producers of cellulosic biofuel can claim up to $1.01 per gallon tax credit. The credit for cellulosic ethanol varies with other ethanol credits such that the total combined value of all credits is $1.01 per gallon. As the VEETC and/or the Small Ethanol Producer Credits (outlined above) decrease, the per-gallon credit for cellulosic ethanol production increases by the same amount (ie the value of the credit is reduced by the amount of the VEETC and the Small Ethanol Producer Credit—currently, the value would be 40 cents per gallon). The credit applies to fuel produced after December 31, 2008. This credit is scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2012.

Special Depreciation Allowance for Cellulosic Biofuel Plant Property:

A taxpayer may take a depreciation deduction of 50% of the adjusted basis of a new cellulosic biofuel plant in the year it is put in service. Any portion of the cost financed through tax-exempt bonds is exempted from the depreciation allowance. Before amendment by P.L. 110-343, the accelerated depreciation applied only to cellulosic ethanol plants that break down cellulose through enzymatic processes—the amended provision applies to all cellulosic biofuel plants acquired after December 20, 2006, and placed in service before January 1, 2013. This accelerated depreciation allowance is scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2012.

ESTIMATE OF THE AMOUNT SPENT DURING EACH OF THE LAST TWO FISCAL YEARS ON RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES

For the fiscal years ending December 31, 2008 and 2009, we spent roughly $10,535,278 and $1,307,185 on project development costs, respectively.

To date, project development costs include the research and development expenses related to our future cellulose-to-ethanol production facilities including site development, and engineering activities.

COSTS AND EFFECTS OF COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS (FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL)

We will be subject to extensive air, water and other environmental regulations and we will have to obtain a number of environmental permits to construct and operate our plants, including, air pollution construction permits, a pollutant discharge elimination system general permit, storm water discharge permits, a water withdrawal permit, and an alcohol fuel producer’s permit. In addition, we may have to complete spill prevention control and countermeasures plans.

The production facilities that we will build are subject to oversight activities by the federal, state, and local regulatory agencies. There is always a risk that the federal agencies may enforce certain rules and regulations differently than state environmental administrators. State or federal rules are subject to change, and any such changes could result in greater regulatory burdens on plant operations. We could also be subject to environmental or nuisance claims from adjacent property owners or residents in the area arising from possible foul smells or other air or water discharges from the plant.

NUMBER OF TOTAL EMPLOYEES AND NUMBER OF FULL TIME EMPLOYEES

We have six full time employees as of February 10, 2011, and three part time employees. None of our employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement, and we believe that our relationship with our employees is good.

REPORTS TO SECURITY HOLDERS

We are subject to the reporting obligations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These obligations include filing an annual report under cover of Form 10, with audited financial statements, unaudited quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and the requisite proxy statements with regard to annual stockholder meetings. The public may read and copy any materials the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0030. The SEC maintains an Internet site (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our company’s or our company’s subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Technology Agreement with Arkenol, Inc.

On March 1, 2006, the Company entered into a Technology License agreement with Arkenol, Inc. (“Arkenol”), which the Company’s majority shareholder and other family members hold an interest in. Arkenol has its own management and board separate and apart from the Company. According to the terms of the agreement, the Company was granted an exclusive, non-transferable, North American license to use and to sub-license the Arkenol technology. The Arkenol Technology, converts cellulose and waste materials into Ethanol and other high value chemicals. As consideration for the grant of the license, the Company shall make a one time payment of $1,000,000 at first project construction funding and for each plant make the following payments: (1) royalty payment of 4% of the gross sales price for sales by the Company or its sub licensees of all products produced from the use of the Arkenol Technology (2) and a one-time license fee of $40.00 per 1,000 gallons of production capacity per plant. According to the terms of the agreement, the Company made a one-time exclusivity fee prepayment of $30,000 during the period ended December 31, 2006. The agreement term is for 30 years from the effective date.

During 2008, due to the receipt of proceeds from the Department of Energy, the Board of Directors determined that the Company had triggered its obligation to incur the full $1,000,000 Arkenol License fee. The Board of Directors determined that the receipt of these proceeds constituted “First Project Construction Funding” as established under the Arkenol technology agreement. As such, the statement of operation reflects the one-time license fee of $1,000,000 and the unpaid balance of $970,000 was included in license fee payable to related party on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008. The prepaid fee to related party of $30,000 was eliminated as of December 31, 2008. The Company repaid the $970,000 to the related party on March 9, 2009.

Asset Transfer Agreement with Ark Entergy, Inc.

On March 1, 2006, the Company entered into an Asset Transfer and Acquisition Agreement with ARK Energy, Inc. (“ARK Energy”), which is owned (50%) by the Company’s CEO. ARK Energy has its own management and board separate and apart from the Company. Based upon the terms of the agreement, ARK Energy transferred certain rights, assets, work-product, intellectual property and other know-how on project opportunities that may be used to deploy the Arkenol technology (as described in the above paragraph). In consideration, the Company has agreed to pay a performance bonus of up to $16,000,000 when certain milestones are met. These milestones include transferee’s project implementation which would be demonstrated by start of the construction of a facility or completion of financial closing whichever is earlier. The payment is based on ARK Energy’s cost to acquire and develop 19 sites which are currently at different stages of development.

Related Party Line of Credit

In March 2007, the Company obtained a line of credit in the amount of $1,500,000 from its Chairman/Chief Executive Officer and majority shareholder to provide additional liquidity to the Company as needed.

As of December 31, 2007, the Company repaid its outstanding balance on line of credit of approximately $631,000 which included interest of $37,800. This line of credit was terminated with the closing of the private placement in December 2007 and the subsequent line of credit balance repayment.

In February 2009, the Company obtained a line of credit in the amount of $570,000 from Arkenol Inc, its technology licensor, to provide additional liquidity to the Company as needed. In October 2009 $175,000 was utilized from the line of credit and in November 2009 the balance was paid in full along with approximately $500 interest. As of March 31, 2010, there were no amount outstanding and the line of credit was deemed cancelled as the Company did not anticipate utilizing funds from the line of credit.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock, and 1,000,000 shares of no par value preferred stock. As of February 10, 2011, the Company had 29,583,971 shares of common stock outstanding, and no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

COMMON STOCK

As of February 10, 2011, we had 29,583,971 shares of common stock outstanding. The shares of our common stock presently outstanding, and any shares of our common stock issues upon exercise of stock options and/or warrants, will be fully paid and non-assessable. Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share owned on all matters voted upon by shareholders, and a majority vote is required for all actions to be taken by shareholders. In the event we liquidate, dissolve or wind-up our operations, the holders of the common stock are entitled to share equally and ratably in our assets, if any, remaining after the payment of all our debts and liabilities and the liquidation preference of any shares of preferred stock that may then be outstanding. The common stock has no preemptive rights, no cumulative voting rights, and no redemption, sinking fund, or conversion provisions. Since the holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares can elect all of our Directors, and the holders of the remaining shares by themselves cannot elect any Directors. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if and when declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available for such purpose, subject to the dividend and liquidation rights of any preferred stock that may then be outstanding.

Voting Rights

Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders.

Dividends

Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then-outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, if any, and any other restrictions, holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably those dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Company’s board of directors out of legally available funds. The Company and its predecessors have not declared any dividends in the past. Further, the Company does not presently contemplate that there will be any future payment of any dividends on Common Stock.

PREFERRED STOCK

As of February 10, 2011, we had no shares of preferred stock outstanding. We may issue preferred stock in one or more class or series pursuant to resolution of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may determine and alter the rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued series of preferred stock, and fix the number of shares and the designation of any series of preferred stock. The Board of Directors may increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any wholly unissued class or series subsequent to the issue of shares of that class or series. We have no present plans to issue any shares of preferred stock.

WARRANTS

As of February 10, 2011, we had warrants to purchase an aggregate of 7,315,265 shares of our common stock outstanding. The exercise prices for the warrants range from $0.50 per share to $5.45 per share, with a weighted average exercise price of approximately per share of $2.69. Some of our warrants contain a provision in which the exercise price will be adjusted for future issuances of common stock at prices lower than the current exercise price.

OPTIONS

As of February 10, 2011, we had options to purchase an aggregate of 3,287,159 shares of our common stock outstanding, with exercise prices for the options ranging from $2.00 per share to $3.52 per share, with a weighted average exercise price per share of $2.48.

ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS

Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws contain provisions that may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire or may discourage acquisition bids for us. Our Board of Directors may, without action of our stockholders, issue authorized but unissued common stock and preferred stock. The issuance of additional shares to certain persons allied with our management could have the effect of making it more difficult to remove our current management by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to cause such removal. The existence of unissued preferred stock may enable the Board of Directors, without further action by the stockholders, to issue such stock to persons friendly to current management or to issue such stock with terms that could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us, thereby protecting the continuity of our management. Our shares of preferred stock could therefore be issued quickly with terms that could delay, defer, or prevent a change in control of us, or make removal of management more difficult.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION

FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

The Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws provide for indemnification of directors and officers against certain liabilities. Officers and directors of the Company are indemnified generally for any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, has no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

The Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation further provides the following indemnifications:

(a) a director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or to its shareholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director of the Corporation or to its shareholders for damages otherwise existing for (i) any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or to its shareholders; (ii) acts or omission not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law; (iii) acts revolving around any unlawful distribution or contribution; or (iv) any transaction from which the director directly or indirectly derived any improper personal benefit. If Nevada Law is hereafter amended to eliminate or limit further liability of a director, then, in addition to the elimination and limitation of liability provided by the foregoing, the liability of each director shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted under the provisions of Nevada Law as so amended. Any repeal or modification of the indemnification provided in these Articles shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation under these Articles, as in effect immediately prior to such repeal or modification, with respect to any liability that would have accrued, but for this limitation of liability, prior to such repeal or modification.

(b) the Corporation shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in effect from time to time, any person, and the estate and personal representative of any such person, against all liability and expense (including, but not limited to attorney’s fees) incurred by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, he is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee, fiduciary, or agent of, or in any similar managerial or fiduciary position of, another domestic or foreign corporation or other individual or entity of an employee benefit plan. The Corporation shall also indemnify any person who is serving or has served the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent and that person’s estate and personal representative to the extent and in the manner provided in any bylaw, resolution of the shareholders or directors, contract, or otherwise, so long as such provision is legally permissible.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by our directors, officers or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceedings) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with any securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issues.

THE LPC TRANSACTION

General

On January 19, 2011, we executed a Purchase Agreement and a Registration Rights Agreement with LPC, pursuant to which LPC has purchased 428,571 shares of our common stock together with warrants to purchase 428,571 shares of our common stock, which are not included in this offering, at an exercise price of $.55 per share, for total consideration of $150,000. The warrants have a term of five years. Under the Purchase Agreement, we also have the right to sell to LPC up to an additional $9,850,000 of our common stock at our option as described below.

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we have filed a registration statement that includes this prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) covering the shares that have been issued or may be issued to LPC under the Purchase Agreement. We do not have the right to commence any additional sales of our shares to LPC until the SEC has declared effective the registration statement of which this Prospectus is a part. After the registration statement is declared effective, over approximately 30 months, generally we have the right to direct LPC to purchase up to an additional $9,850,000 of our common stock in amounts up to $35,000 as often as every two business days under certain conditions. We can also accelerate the amount of our stock to be purchased under certain circumstances. No sales of shares may occur below $0.15 per share. There are no trading volume requirements or restrictions under the Purchase Agreement, and we will control the timing and amount of any sales of our common stock to Lincoln Park. The purchase price of the shares will be based on the market prices of our shares immediately preceding the time of sale as computed under the Purchase Agreement without any fixed discount. We may at any time in our sole discretion terminate the Purchase Agreement without fee, penalty or cost upon one business day notice. LPC may not assign or transfer its rights and obligations under the Purchase Agreement. We issued 600,000 shares of our stock to LPC as a commitment fee for entering into the agreement, and we may issue up to 600,000 shares pro rata as LPC purchases the up to $9,850,000 of our stock as directed by us.

Purchase of Shares under The Purchase Agreement

Under the Purchase Agreement, on any business day selected by us and as often as every two business days, we may direct LPC to purchase up to $35,000 of our common stock. The purchase price per share is equal to the lesser of:

the lowest sale price of our common stock on the purchase date; or

the average of the three (3) lowest closing sale prices of our common stock during the twelve (12) consecutive business days prior to the date of a purchase by LPC.

The purchase price will be equitably adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, or other similar transaction occurring during the business days used to compute the purchase price.

In addition to purchases of up to $35,000, we may direct LPC as often as every two business days to purchase up to $40,000 of our common stock provided on the purchase date our share price is not below $0.50 per share. We may increase this amount: up to $100,000 of our common stock provided on the purchase date our share price is not below $0.75 per share; up to $200,000 of our common stock provided on the purchase date our share price is not below $1.25 per share; up to $500,000 of our common stock provided on the purchase date our share price is not below $1.75 per share. The price at which LPC would purchase these accelerated amounts of our stock will be the lesser of (i) the lowest sale price of our common stock on the purchase date and (ii) the lowest purchase price (as described above) during the previous ten (10) business days prior to the purchase date

Minimum Purchase Price

Under the Purchase Agreement, we have set a minimum purchase price (“floor price”) of $0.15. However, LPC shall not have the right nor the obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock in the event that the purchase price would be less than the floor price. Specifically, LPC shall not have the right or the obligation to purchase shares of our common stock on any business day that the market price of our common stock is below $0.15.

Events of Default

The following events constitute events of default under the Purchase Agreement:

the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part of lapses for any reason (including, without limitation, the issuance of a stop order) or is unavailable to LPC for sale of our common stock offered hereby and such lapse or unavailability continues for a period of ten (10) consecutive business days or for more than an aggregate of thirty (30) business days in any 365-day period;

suspension by our principal market of our common stock from trading for a period of three (3) consecutive business days;

the de-listing of our common stock from our principal market provided our common stock is not immediately thereafter trading on the, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the New York Stock Exchange or the NYSE AMEX;

the transfer agent’s failure for five (5) business days to issue to LPC shares of our common stock which LPC is entitled to under the Purchase Agreement;

any material breach of the representations or warranties or covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement or any related agreements which has or which could have a material adverse effect on us subject to a cure period of five (5) business days; or

any participation or threatened participation in insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings by or against us.

Our Termination Rights

We have the unconditional right at any time for any reason to give notice to LPC terminating the Purchase Agreement without any cost to us.

No Short-Selling or Hedging by LPC

LPC has agreed that neither it nor any of its affiliates shall engage in any direct or indirect short-selling or hedging of our common stock during any time prior to the termination of the common stock Purchase Agreement.

Effect of Performance of the Purchase Agreement on Our Stockholders

All 3,900,000 shares registered in this offering are expected to be freely tradable. It is anticipated that shares registered in this offering will be sold over a period of up to 30 months from the date of this prospectus. The sale by LPC of a significant amount of shares registered in this offering at any given time could cause the market price of our common stock to decline and to be highly volatile. LPC may ultimately purchase all, some or none of the 3,900,000 shares of common stock not yet issued but registered in this offering. After it has acquired such shares, it may sell all, some or none of such shares. Therefore, sales to LPC by us under the agreement may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. However, we have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of our shares to LPC and the agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without any cost to us.

In connection with entering into the agreement, we authorized the sale to LPC of up to 20,000,000 shares of our common stock exclusive of the 600,000 commitment shares issued, the 600,000 commitment shares that may be issued and the 428,571 shares underlying the warrant and that are not part of this offering. We have the right to terminate the agreement without any payment or liability to LPC at any time, including in the event that all $10,000,000 is sold to LPC under the Purchase Agreement. The number of shares ultimately offered for sale by LPC under this prospectus is dependent upon the number of shares purchased by LPC under the agreement. The following table sets forth the amount of proceeds we would receive from LPC from the sale of shares that are registered in this offering at varying purchase prices:

Assumed Average Purchase Price			Number of Registered Shares to be Issued if Full Purchase (1) (2)		Percentage of Outstanding Shares After Giving Effect to the Issuance to LPC (3)			Proceeds from the Sale of Registered Shares to LPC Under the LPC Purchase Agreement
$	0.15	(4)		2,871,429		8.84	%	$	426,815
$	0.46	(5)		2,871,429		8.84	%	$	1,284,855
$	0.50			2,871,429		8.84	%	$	1,393,280
$	1.00			2,871,429		8.84	%	$	2,706,563
$	2.00			2,871,429		8.84	%	$	5,119,199

(1)

Although the LPC Purchase Agreement provides that we may sell up to $10,000,000 of our common stock to LPC, we are only registering 2,871,429 shares to be purchased thereunder, which may or may not cover all such shares purchased by LPC under the LPC Purchase Agreement, depending on the purchase price per share. As a result, we have included in this column only those shares which are registered in this offering.

(2)

The number of registered shares to be includes a number of shares to be purchased at the applicable price plus the applicable additional commitment shares issuable to LPC (but not the initial commitment shares), and no proceeds will be attributable to such commitment shares.

(3)

The denominator is based on 32,455,400 shares outstanding as of February 10, 2011, which includes the 428,571 shares previously issued to LPC, which shares are a part of this offering, the 600,000 initial commitment shares and the number of shares set forth in the adjacent column which includes the additional commitment shares issued pro rata as up to $9,850,000 of our stock is purchased by LPC. The numerator is based on the number of shares issuable under the Purchase Agreement at the corresponding assumed purchase price set forth in the adjacent column. The number of shares in such column does not include shares that may be issued to LPC which are not registered in this offering.

(4)

Under the LPC Purchase Agreement, we may not sell and LPC may not purchase any shares in the event the purchase price of such shares is below $0.15.

(5)

The closing sale price of our shares on February 10, 2011.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The following table presents information regarding the selling stockholder. Neither the selling stockholder nor any of its affiliates has held a position or office, or had any other material relationship, with us. The selling stockholder may elect to sell none, some or all of the shares offered under this prospectus and we cannot estimate the number of shares of common stock that the selling stockholder will beneficially own after termination of sales under this prospectus. For purposes of the table below, we have assumed that, after completion of the offering, none of the shares covered by this prospectus will be held by the selling stockholder.

Selling Stockholder		Shares Beneficially Owned Before Offering				Percentage of Outstanding Shares Beneficially Owned Before Offering				Shares to be Sold in the Offering Assuming The Company Issues The Maximum Number of Shares Under the Purchase Agreement				Percentage of Outstanding Shares Beneficially Owned After Offering
Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (1)			1,028,571	(2)			3.48	% (2)			3,900,000				*

*less than 1%

(1)

Josh Scheinfeld and Jonathan Cope, the principals of LPC, are deemed to be beneficial owners of all of the shares of common stock owned by LPC. Messrs. Scheinfeld and Cope have shared voting and disposition power over the shares being offered under this Prospectus.

(2)

1,028,571 shares of our common stock have been previously acquired by LPC under the Purchase Agreement, consisting of 428,571 shares purchased by LPC and 600,000 shares we issued to LPC as a commitment fee. We may at our discretion elect to issue to LPC up to an additional 2,871,429 shares of our common stock in this offering under the Purchase Agreement and 428,571 shares underlying a warrant are not included in this offering such shares are not included in determining the percentage of shares beneficially owned before the offering.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The common stock offered by this prospectus is being offered by Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC, the selling stockholder. The common stock may be sold or distributed from time to time by the selling stockholder directly to one or more purchasers or through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices, or at fixed prices, which may be changed. The sale of the common stock offered by this Prospectus may be effected in one or more of the following methods:

ordinary brokers’ transactions;

transactions involving cross or block trades;

through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents;

“at the market” into an existing market for the common stock;

in other ways not involving market makers or established business markets, including direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents;

in privately negotiated transactions; or

any combination of the foregoing.

In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the shares may be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states, the shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and complied with.

Brokers, dealers, underwriters, or agents participating in the distribution of the shares as agents may receive compensation in the form of commissions, discounts, or concessions from the selling stockholder and/or purchasers of the common stock for whom the broker-dealers may act as agent. The compensation paid to a particular broker-dealer may be less than or in excess of customary commissions.

LPC is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.

Neither we nor LPC can presently estimate the amount of compensation that any agent will receive. We know of no existing arrangements between LPC, any other shareholder, broker, dealer, underwriter, or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares offered by this Prospectus. At the time a particular offer of shares is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed that will set forth the names of any agents, underwriters, or dealers and any compensation from the selling stockholder, and any other required information.

We will pay all of the expenses incident to the registration, offering, and sale of the shares to the public other than commissions or discounts of underwriters, broker-dealers, or agents. We have also agreed to indemnify LPC and related persons against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore, unenforceable.

LPC and its affiliates have agreed not to engage in any direct or indirect short selling or hedging of our common stock during the term of the Purchase Agreement.

We have advised LPC that while it is engaged in a distribution of the shares included in this Prospectus it is required to comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the selling stockholder, any affiliated purchasers, and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in the distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. Regulation M also prohibits any bids or purchases made in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with the distribution of that security. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares offered hereby this Prospectus.

This offering will terminate on the date that all shares offered by this Prospectus have been sold by LPC.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS

On September 14, 2006, we engaged McKennon, Wilson & Morgan LLP (“Wilson Morgan”) as our independent accountants. There have been no disagreements on accounting and financial disclosures with our accountants.

In connection with the audits of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, and through May 5, 2009, there were no disagreements with McKennon Wilson & Morgan LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement. McKennon Wilson & Morgan LLP’s reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

In connection with the reorganization of Wilson Morgan certain of its audit partners resigned from Wilson Morgan and have joined DBBMcKennon (“DBB”). On May 5, 2009, Wilson Morgan notified us of their resignation as our independently registered public accountants.

As a result of the above, our Audit Committee, and our Board of Directors, on May 5, 2009, approved the resignation of the Wilson Morgan effective May 5, 2009, and the engagement of DBB as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009 effective May 5, 2009.

BLUEFIRE RENEWABLES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(FORMERLY BLUEFIRE ETHANOL FUELS, INC)

(A DEVELOPMENT-STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

BlueFire Ethanol, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of BlueFire Renewables, Inc. (formerly BlueFire Ethanol Fuels, Inc.) (collectively “BlueFire” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on March 28, 2006 (“Inception”). BlueFire was established to deploy the commercially ready and patented process for the conversion of cellulosic waste materials to ethanol (“Arkenol Technology”) under a technology license agreement with Arkenol, Inc. (“Arkenol”). BlueFire’s use of the Arkenol Technology positions it as a cellulose-to-ethanol company with demonstrated production of ethanol from urban trash (post-sorted “MSW”), rice and wheat straws, wood waste and other agricultural residues. The Company’s goal is to develop and operate high-value carbohydrate-based transportation fuel production facilities in North America, and to provide professional services to such facilities worldwide. These “biorefineries” will convert widely available, inexpensive, organic materials such as agricultural residues, high-content biomass crops, wood residues, and cellulose from MSW into ethanol.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management’s Plans

The Company is a development-stage company which has incurred losses since inception. Management has funded operations primarily through proceeds received in connection with the reverse merger, loans from its majority shareholder, the private placement of the Company's common stock in December 2007 for net proceeds of approximately $14,500,000, the issuance of convertible notes with warrants in July and in August 2007, and Department of Energy reimbursements commencing in 2008 through the current date. The Company may encounter difficulties in establishing operations due to the time frame of developing, constructing and ultimately operating the planned bio-refinery projects.

As of September 30, 2010, the Company has a negative working capital of approximately $202,000. Management has estimated that operating expenses for the next twelve months will be approximately $1,800,000, excluding engineering costs related to the development of bio-refinery projects. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Throughout the remainder of 2010, the Company intends to fund its operations with reimbursements under the Department of Energy contract, as well as seek additional funding in the form of equity or debt. The Company expects the current resources available to them will only be sufficient for a period of approximately one month unless significant cost cutting measures are taken. Management has determined that these general expenditures must be reduced and additional capital will be required in the form of equity or debt securities. In addition, if we cannot raise additional short term capital we may consume all of our cash reserved for operations. There are no assurances that management will be able to raise capital on terms acceptable to the Company. If we are unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, we may be required to reduce the scope of our planned development, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

Additionally, the Company’s proposed Lancaster plant is currently shovel ready and only requires minimal capital to maintain until funding is obtained for the construction. The preparation for the construction of this plant was the primary capital uses in prior years.

F-4

As of September 30, 2010 the Company’s proposed plant in Fulton, Mississippi was awaiting its storm water pollution prevention plan approval. This is one of the last permits to secure before ground can be broken on the Fulton project.

We estimate the total construction cost of the bio-refineries to be in the range of approximately $300 million for the DOE plant in Fulton, Mississippi and approximately $100 million to $125 million for the Lancaster, California plant. These cost approximations do not reflect any decrease in raw materials or any savings in construction cost that might be realized by the weak world economic environment. The Company is currently in discussions with potential sources of financing for these facilities but no definitive agreements are in place.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consist of normal recurring adjustments. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2009. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Loan Guarantee Program Costs

We submitted an application for a $250 million dollar loan guarantee for our planned biorefinery in Mississippi. The application provides federal loan guarantees for projects that employ innovative energy efficiency, renewable energy, and advanced transmission and distribution technologies, was submitted on February 15, 2010, and serves as a phase one application in a two phase approval process. If approved, the loan guarantee will secure a substantial portion of the total costs to construct the facility, although there is no assurance that the loan guarantee will be approved. We are in the detailed engineering phase for this project and expect to have all necessary permits for this facility by the end of the year, putting the Company on a path to commence construction shortly after the remainder of financing is secured. We estimate the total cost including contingencies to be in the range of approximately $300 million which includes an approximately $100 million biomass power plant as part of the facility.

We incurred costs directly related to the financing arrangement for this project of approximately $500,000. Such costs are capitalized and will be amortized to interest expense when, and if, the financing is completed. In the event the financing is unsuccessful, we will re-characterize these costs to expense.

Project Development

Project development costs are either expensed or capitalized. The costs of materials and equipment that will be acquired or constructed for project development activities, and that have alternative future uses, both in project development, marketing or sales, will be classified as property and equipment and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. To date, project development costs include the research and development expenses related to the Company's future cellulose-to-ethanol production facilities. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, and for the period from March 28, 2006 (Inception) to September 30, 2010, research and development costs included in Project Development expense were approximately $241,000, $957,000 and $18,196,000, respectively.

F-5

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification “ASC” 820 (“ASC 820”) Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The Company did not record an adjustment to retained earnings as a result of the adoption of the guidance for fair value measurements, and the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations.

Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The guidance also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

As of September 30, 2010, the Company’s warrant liability is considered a level 2 item, see Note 4.

Income (loss) per Common Share

The Company presents basic income (loss) per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS on the face of the consolidated statement of operations. Basic income (loss) per share is computed as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options, warrants, and other convertible securities. As of September 30, 2010, the Company had 3,287,159 options and 6,386,694 warrants outstanding, for which all of the exercise prices were in excess of the average closing price of the Company’s common stock during the corresponding quarter and thus no shares are considered as dilutive under the treasury-stock method of accounting. As of September 30, 2009, the Company had approximately 3,287,000 options and 7,487,000 warrants to purchase shares of common stock that were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their effects would have been anti-dilutive due to the loss.

Share-Based Payments

The Company accounts for stock options issued to employees and consultants under ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under ASC 718, share-based compensation cost to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee's requisite vesting period.

The Company measures compensation expense for its non-employee stock-based compensation under ASC 505 Equity. The fair value of the option issued or committed to be issued is used to measure the transaction, as this is more reliable than the fair value of the services received. The fair value is measured at the value of the Company's common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been reached or the counterparty's performance is complete. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to stock-based compensation expense and credited to additional paid-in capital.

F-6

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment, is recorded at cost. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight–line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to seven years, except for leasehold improvements which are amortized over the lease term. Depreciation for construction-in-progress does not commence until the asset is ready for use. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

Costs incurred relating to construction-in-progress for plant facilities are capitalized when those costs are for the active development of the facility. Those costs include interest when such costs qualify for capitalization. Interest capitalization ceases when the construction of a facility is complete and available for use. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, and 2009, the Company did not capitalize any interest costs related to construction-in-progress. When capitalized costs qualify for reimbursement under the DOE grant, the reimbursement on those costs reduces the value of construction-in-progress.

As of September 30, 2010, the Company had net construction-in-progress of $728,224 included in property, plant and equipment on the accompanying balance sheet.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

NOTE 3 – DEVELOPMENT CONTRACTS

Department of Energy Awards 1 and 2

In February 2007, the Company was awarded a grant for up to $40 million from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (“DOE”) cellulosic ethanol grant program to develop a solid waste biorefinery project at a landfill in Southern California, which is now located in Fulton, Mississippi. During October 2007, the Company finalized Award 1 for a total approved budget of just under $10,000,000 with the DOE. This award is a 60%/40% cost share, whereby 40% of approved costs may be reimbursed by the DOE pursuant to the total $40 million award announced in February 2007.

In December 2009, as a result of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the DOE increased Award 2 to a total of $81 million for Phase II of its DOE Biorefinery project. This is in addition to a renegotiated Phase I funding for development of the DOE Biorefinery of approximately $7 million out of the previously announced $10 million total. This brings the total eligible funds for DOE Biorefinery to approximately $88 million. The Company has completed negotiations with the DOE for Phase II of its DOE Biorefinery project and the funds have been obligated.

To date, the Company has received reimbursements of approximately $7,201,000 under these awards.

F-7

In 2009 and 2010, our operations have been financed to a large degree through funding provided by the U.S Department of Energy. We rely on access to this funding as a source of liquidity for capital requirements not satisfied by the cash flow from our operations. If we are unable to access government funding our ability to finance our projects and/or operations and implement our strategy and business plan will be severely hampered. Awards 1and 2 consist of a total reimbursable amount of $87,560,000, and through September 30, 2010, we have an unreimbursed amount of approximately $80,359,000 available to us under the awards. We cannot guarantee that we will continue to receive grants, loan guarantees, or other funding for our projects from the U.S. Department of Energy.

NOTE 4 - OUTSTANDING WARRANT LIABILITY

Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging. ASC 815 applies to any freestanding financial instruments or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock. As a result of adopting ASC 815, 6,962,963 of our issued and outstanding common stock purchase warrants previously treated as equity pursuant to the derivative treatment exemption were no longer afforded equity treatment. These warrants have an exercise price of $2.90; 5,962,563 warrants expire in December 2012, 426,800 expired August 2010, and 673,200 were cancelled in October 2009. As such, effective January 1, 2009, we reclassified the fair value of these common stock purchase warrants, which have exercise price reset features, from equity to liability status as if these warrants were treated as a derivative liability since their date of issue in August 2007 and December 2007. On January 1, 2009, we reclassified from additional paid-in capital, as a cumulative effect adjustment, $15.7 million to beginning retained earnings and $2.9 million to a long-term warrant liability to recognize the fair value of such warrants on such date.

On October 19, 2009, the Company cancelled 673,200 warrants for $220,000 in cash. These warrants were part of the 1,000,000 warrants issued in August 2007, and were set to expire August 2010. Prior to October 19, 2009, the warrants were previously accounted for as a derivative liability and marked to their fair value at each reporting period in 2009. The Company valued these warrants the day immediately preceding the cancellation date which indicated a gain on the change in fair value of $208,562 and a remaining fair value of $73,282. Upon cancellation the remaining value was extinguished for payment of $220,000 in cash, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of $146,718. In connection with the remaining 326,800 warrants that expired in August 2010, and the 5,962,963 warrants set to expire in December 2012, the Company recognized a loss of approximately $847,000 and a gain of approximately $1,349,000 from the change in fair value of these warrants for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.

These common stock purchase warrants were initially issued in connection with two private offerings, our August 2007 issuance of 689,655 shares of common stock and our December 2007 issuance of 5,740,741 shares of common stock. The common stock purchase warrants were not issued with the intent of effectively hedging any future cash flow, fair value of any asset, liability or any net investment in a foreign operation. The warrants do not qualify for hedge accounting, and as such, all future changes in the fair value of these warrants will be recognized currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised or expire. These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, we estimate the fair value of these warrants quarterly using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions:

	September 30,			December 31,
	2010			2009
Annual dividend yield		-			-
Expected life (years) of August 2007 issuance		N/A			0.64
Expected life (years) of December 2007 issuance		2.25			3.00
Risk-free interest rate		0.61	%		2.69	%
Expected volatility of August 2007 issuance		N/A			101	%
Expected volatility of December 2007 issuance		122	%		95	%

F-8

Expected volatility is based primarily on historical volatility. Historical volatility for the August 2007 and December 2007 issuances were computed using weekly pricing observations for recent periods that correspond to the expected life of the warrants. Management believes this method produces an estimate that is representative of our expectations of future volatility over the expected term of these warrants. The Company currently has no reason to believe future volatility over the expected remaining life of these warrants is likely to differ materially from historical volatility. The expected life is based on the remaining term of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities rates.

NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Professional Service Agreements

As of September 30, 2010, the Company has contracts with several engineering firms. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company paid approximately $1,905,000 to various engineering firms.

Related-Party Line of Credit

In February 2009, the Company obtained a line of credit in the amount of $570,000 from Arkenol Inc, its technology licensor, to provide additional liquidity to the Company as needed. In October 2009, $175,000 was utilized from the line of credit and in November 2009, the balance was paid in full along with approximately $500 interest. As of September 30, 2010, the line of credit is cancelled and thus no funds are available.

NOTE 6 - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Stock-Based Compensation under the Company’s Employee Stock Option Plan

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and for the period from March 28, 2006 (Inception) to September 30, 2010, the Company recognized stock-based compensation, including consultants, of approximately $0, $0, and $4,487,000 to general and administrative expenses and $0, $0, and $4,368,000 to project development expenses, respectively. There is no additional future compensation expense to record as of September 30, 2010 based on the previous awards.

On July 15, 2010, the Company renewed all of its existing Directors’ appointments, as well as electing a new Director and issued 6,000 shares to each and paid $5,000 to each of the three outside members. Pursuant to the Board of Director agreements, the Company's in-house board members (CEO and Vice-President) waived their annual cash compensation of $5,000. The value of the common stock granted was determined to be approximately $7,200 based on the fair market value of the Company's common stock of $0.24 on the date of the grant. The value was expensed upon the date of grant due to no future performance requirements.

Shares Issued for Services

On August 27, 2009, the Company entered into a six month consulting agreement with Mirador Consulting, Inc (the “Consulting Agreement”). Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, the Company received services in connection with mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance, corporate finance relations, introductions to other financial relations companies and other financial services. As consideration for these services, the Company made monthly cash payments of $3,000 and issued 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for $200. The Company valued the shares at $0.80 based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the Consulting Agreement. Under the terms of the Consulting Agreement, the shares did not have any future performance requirement nor were they cancellable. The Company expensed the entire value on the date of the Consulting Agreement and recorded to general and administrative expense. Under the terms of the Consulting Agreement the Company was to issue 100,000 shares upon execution of the agreement and November 15, 2009. On May 24, 2010, the Company issued the remaining 100,000 shares.

F-9

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company issued 118,000 shares of common stock for legal and professional services provided. In connection with this issuance the Company recorded $33,250 in legal and professional fees expense which is included in general and administrative expense. The Company valued the shares using the closing market price on the date of issuance. The Company expensed the shares on the date of issuance as the services had been provided and there were no future performance criteria.

NOTE 7 –SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 5, 2010, the Company announced that it has finalized and signed an Engineering, Procurement and Construction (“EPC”) contract for its planned DOE Biorefinery in Fulton, Mississippi. The facility will be engineered and built by Wanzek Construction, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of MasTec, Inc. (NYSE:MTZ - News), for a fixed price of $296 million which includes an approximately $100 million biomass power plant as part of the facility. The contract was negotiated in a manner to be appealing for non-recourse project bank financing and serves as a final key project contract agreement to move forward with both the DOE and USDA Loan Guarantee Programs.

On December 15, 2010, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) by and between Arnold Klann, the Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the board of directors and majority shareholder of the Company, as lender (the “Lender”), and the Company, as borrower. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Lender agreed to advance to the Company a principal amount of Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$200,000) (the “Loan”). The proceeds of the Loan were used to fund operations. The Loan Agreement requires the Company to (i) pay to the Lender a one-time amount equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the Loan (the “Fee Amount”) in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock at a value of $0.50 per share, at the Lender’s option; and (ii) issue the Lender warrants allowing the Lender to buy 500,000 common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.50 per common share, such warrants to expire on December 15, 2013. The Company has promised to pay in full the outstanding principal balance of any and all amounts due under the Loan Agreement within thirty (30) days of the Company’s receipt of investment financing or a commitment from a third party to provide One Million United States Dollars (US$1,000,000) to the Company or one of its subsidiaries (the “Due Date”), to be paid in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock, at the Lender’s option. The Company is currently determining the accounting impact of the transaction.

On December 23, 2010, the Company sold a one percent (1%) membership interest in its operating subsidiary, BlueFire Fulton Renewable Energy, LLC (“BlueFire Fulton”), to an accredited investor for a purchase price of $750,000 (“Purchase Price”). The Company maintains a 99% ownership interest in BlueFire Fulton. In addition, the investor received a right to require the Company to redeem the 1% interest for $875,000, or any pro-rata amount thereon. The redemption is based upon future contingent events based upon obtaining financing for the construction of the Fulton ethanol plant, The Company is currently determining the accounting impact of the transaction.

On January 19, 2011, the Company signed a $10 million purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“LPC”), an Illinois limited liability company. Upon signing the Purchase Agreement, BlueFire received $150,000 from LPC as an initial purchase under the $10 million commitment in exchange for 428,571 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 428,571 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.55 per share. The warrants contain a provision in which the exercise price will be adjusted for future issuances of common stock at prices lower than the current exercise price. We also entered into a registration rights agreement with LPC whereby we agreed to file a registration statement related to the transaction with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) covering the shares that may be issued to LPC under the Purchase Agreement within ten days of the agreement. The registration statement must be declared effective by March 31, 2011. After the SEC has declared effective the registration statement related to the transaction, we have the right, in our sole discretion, over a 30-month period to sell our shares of common stock to LPC in amounts up to $500,000 per sale, depending on certain conditions as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, up to the aggregate commitment of $10 million. There are no upper limits to the price LPC may pay to purchase our common stock and the purchase price of the shares related to the $9.85 million of future additional funding will be based on the prevailing market prices of the Company’s shares immediately preceding the time of sales without any fixed discount, and the Company controls the timing and amount of any future sales, if any, of shares to LPC. LPC shall not have the right or the obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock on any business day that the price of our common stock is below $0.15. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, closing conditions and indemnification and termination provisions by, among and for the benefit of the parties. LPC has covenanted not to cause or engage in any manner whatsoever, any direct or indirect short selling or hedging of the Company’s shares of common stock. In consideration for entering into the $10 million agreement, we issued to LPC 600,000 shares of our common stock as a commitment fee and shall issue up to 600,000 shares pro rata as LPC purchases up to the remaining $9.85 million. The Purchase Agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without any cost to us. Except for a limitation on variable priced financings, there are no financial or business covenants, restrictions on future fundings, rights of first refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages in the agreement. The proceeds received by the Company under the purchase agreement are expected to be used for general working capital purposes. The Company is currently determining the accounting impact of the transaction.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of BlueFire Renewables, Inc. and subsidiaries, a development-stage company, (collectively the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended and for the period from March 28, 2006 (“Inception”) to December 31, 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BlueFire Renewables, Inc. and subsidiaries, as of December 31, 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended, and for the period from Inception to December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BlueFire Renewables, Inc. and subsidiaries, as of December 31, 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

(A DEVELOPMENT-STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

BlueFire Renewables, Inc. (formerly BlueFire Ethanol, Inc.) (“BlueFire”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada on March 28, 2006 (“Inception”). BlueFire was established to deploy the commercially ready and patented process for the conversion of cellulosic waste materials to ethanol (“Arkenol Technology”) under a technology license agreement with Arkenol, Inc. (“Arkenol”). BlueFire’s use of the Arkenol Technology positions it as a cellulose-to-ethanol company with demonstrated production of ethanol from urban trash (post-sorted “MSW”), rice and wheat straws, wood waste and other agricultural residues. The Company’s goal is to develop and operate high-value carbohydrate-based transportation fuel production facilities in North America, and to provide professional services to such facilities worldwide. These “biorefineries” will convert widely available, inexpensive, organic materials such as agricultural residues, high-content biomass crops, wood residues, and cellulose from MSW into ethanol.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management’s Plans

The Company is a development-stage company which has incurred losses since inception. Management has funded operations primarily through proceeds received in connection with the reverse merger, loans from its majority shareholder, the private placement of the Company's common stock in December 2007 for net proceeds of approximately $14,500,000, the issuance of convertible notes with warrants in July and in August 2007, and Department of Energy reimbursements throughout 2008 and 2009. The Company may encounter difficulties in establishing operations due to the time frame of developing, constructing and ultimately operating the planned bio-refinery projects.

As of December 31, 2009, the Company has working capital of approximately $2,522,000. Management has estimated that operating expenses for the next 12 months will be approximately $2,200,000, excluding engineering costs related to the development of bio-refinery projects. During 2010, the Company intends to fund its operations with its current working capital, and proceeds from reimbursements under the Department of Energy contract. The Company expects the current resources available to them will be sufficient for a period in excess of 12 months. If necessary, management has determined that general expenditures will be reduced and additional capital will be required in the form of equity or debt securities. There are no assurances that management will be able to raise capital on terms acceptable to the Company

Additionally, the Company’s Lancaster plant is currently shovel ready and only requires minimal capital to maintain until funding is obtained for the construction. The preparation for the construction of this plant was the primary capital use in 2008.

We estimate the total cost of the bio-refinery, including contingencies to be in the range of approximately $100 million to $120 million for this first plant. This amount is significantly greater than our previous estimations communicated to the public This is due in part to a combination of significant increases in material costs on the world market from the last estimate until now, and the complexity of our first commercial deployment. At the end of 2008 and early 2009, prices for materials have declined, and we expect, that items like structural and specialty steel may continue to decline in price in 2010 with other materials of construction following suit. The cost approximations above do not reflect any decrease in raw mat erials or any savings in construction cost. The Company is currently in discussions with potential sources of financing for this facility but no definitive agreements are in place.

F-11

Changes in Reporting Entity

The acquisition of Sucre Agricultural Corp. by BlueFire Ethanol, Inc., as discussed in Note 1, was accounted for as a reverse acquisition, whereby the assets and liabilities of BlueFire are reported at their historical cost since the entities are under common control immediately after the acquisition in accordance with (“ASC”) No. 805 “Business Combinations” (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141 “Business Combinations." The assets and liabilities of Sucre, which were not significant, were recorded at fair value on June 27, 2006, the date of the acquisition. No goodwill was recorded in connection with the reverse acquisition since Sucre had no business. The reverse acquisition resulted in a change in the reporting entity of Sucre, for accounting and reporting pur poses. Accordingly, the financial statements herein reflect the operations of BlueFire from Inception and Sucre from June 27, 2006, the date of acquisition, through December 31, 2006. The 4,028,264 shares retained by the stockholders of Sucre have been recorded on the date of acquisition of June 27, 2006.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BlueFire Ethanol Fuels, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary, BlueFire Ethanol, Inc. BlueFire Ethanol Lancaster, LLC and BlueFire Fulton Renewable Energy LLC are wholly-owned subsidiaries of BlueFire Ethanol, Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purpose of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are reported net of allowance for expected losses. It represents the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Differences between the amount due and the amount management expects to collect are charged to operations in the year in which those differences are determined, with an offsetting entry to a valuation allowance. As of December 31, 2009, there have been no such charges.

Intangible Assets

License fees acquired are either expensed or recognized as intangible assets. The Company recognizes intangible assets when the following criteria is met: 1) the asset is identifiable, 2) the Company has control over the asset, 3) the cost of the asset can be measured reliably, and 4) it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company purchased a license (see Note 8) from Arkenol, Inc., a related party. The license fee was expensed because the Company is still in the research and development stage and cannot readily determine the probability of future economic benefits for said license.

Depreciation

The Company’s fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over a period ranging from one to five years.

F-12

Revenue Recognition

The Company is currently a developmental-stage company. The Company will recognize revenues from 1) consulting services rendered to potential sub licensees for development and construction of cellulose to ethanol projects, 2) sales of ethanol from its production facilities when (a) persuasive evidence that an agreement exists; (b) the products have been delivered; (c) the prices are fixed and determinable and not subject to refund or adjustment; and (d) collection of the amounts due is reasonably assured.

As discussed in Note 3, the Company received a federal grant from the United States Department of Energy, (“U.S. DOE”). The grant generally provides for payment in connection with related development and construction costs involving commercialization of our technologies. Revenues from the grant are recognized in the period during which the conditions under the grant have been met and the reimbursement is estimatable. The Company determined that the payment received from the U.S. Department of Energy should be accounted for as revenues. This determination was based on the fact the Company views the obtaining of future grants as an ongoing function of its intended operations. In addition, costs related to government grant revenues are not readily identifiable, and such costs are recorded in general and administrative expenses and project development costs and thus could not be offset.

Project Development

Project development costs are either expensed or capitalized. The costs of materials and equipment that will be acquired or constructed for project development activities, and that have alternative future uses, both in project development, marketing or sales, will be classified as property and equipment and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. To date, project development costs include the research and development expenses related to the Company's future cellulose-to-ethanol production facilities. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and for the period from March 28, 2006 (Inception) to December 31, 2009, research and development costs included in Project Development were approximately $1,307,185, $8,45 7,000, and $12,770,000 respectively.

Convertible Debt

Convertible debt is accounted for under the guidelines established by ASC 470 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” (formerly APB Opinion No. 14 “Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt issued with Stock Purchase Warrants” under the direction of Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 98-5, Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios, (“EITF 98-5”) EITF 00-27 Application of Issue No 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments “EITF 00-27”), and ASC 740 “Beneficial Conversion Features” (formerly EITF 05-8 Income Tax Consequences of Issuing Convertible Debt with Beneficial Conversi on Features). The Company records a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) related to the issuance of convertible debt that have conversion features at fixed or adjustable rates that are in-the-money when issued and records the fair value of warrants issued with those instruments. The BCF for the convertible instruments is recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds to warrants and as a reduction to the carrying amount of the convertible instrument equal to the intrinsic value of the conversion features, both of which are credited to paid-in-capital.

The Company calculates the fair value of warrants issued with the convertible instruments using the Black-Scholes valuation method, using the same assumptions used for valuing employee options for purposes of ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (formerly SFAS No. 123R), except that the contractual life of the warrant is used. Under these guidelines, the Company allocates the value of the proceeds received from a convertible debt transaction between the conversion feature and any other detachable instruments (such as warrants) on a relative fair value basis. The allocated fair value is recorded as a debt discount or premium and is amortized over the expected term of the convertible debt to interest expense. For a con version price change of a convertible debt issue, the additional intrinsic value of the debt conversion feature, calculated as the number of additional shares issuable due to a conversion price change multiplied by the previous conversion price, is recorded as additional debt discount and amortized over the remaining life of the debt.

F-13

The Company accounts for modifications of its Embedded Conversion Features (“ECF’s”) in accordance with ASC 470 “Modifications and Exchanges” (formerly EITF 06-6). ASC 470 requires the modification of a convertible debt instrument that changes the fair value of an embedded conversion feature and the subsequent recognition of interest expense or the associated debt instrument when the modification does not result in a debt extinguishment.

Equity Instruments Issued with Registration Rights Agreement

The Company accounts for these penalties as contingent liabilities, applying the accounting guidance of ASC 450 (formerly SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies”). This accounting is consistent with views established by the EITF in its consensus set forth in ASC 825 formerly EITF 05-04 and FASB Staff Positions FSP EITF 00-19-2 “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements”, which was issued December 21, 2006. Accordingly, the Company recognizes damages when it becomes probable that they will be incurred and amounts are reasonably estimable.

In connection with the issuance of common stock on for gross proceeds of $15,500,000 in December 2007 and the $2,000,000 convertible note financing in August 2007, the Company was required to file a registration statement on Form SB-2 or Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to register the resale of the common stock under the Securities Act. The Company filed that registration statement on December 18, 2007 and as required under the registration rights agreement had the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 27, 2008 and in so doing incurred no liquidated damages. As of December 31, 2008, the Company does not believe that any liquidated damages are probable and thus no amounts have been accrued in the accompanying financial statements.</f ont>

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 formerly Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes.” SFAS No. 109 requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset/liability equal to the expected future tax benefit/expense of temporary reporting differences between book and tax accounting methods and any available operating loss or tax credit carry forwards.

In July 2006, the ASC 740 formerly FASB issued Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. This Interpretation sets forth a recognition threshold and valuation method to recognize and measure an income tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The evaluation is based on a two-step approach. The first step requires an entity to evaluate whether the tax position would “more likely than not,” based upon its technical merits, be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority. The second step requires the tax position to be measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. In addition, previously recognized benefits from tax positions that no longer meet the new criteria would no longer be recognized. The application of this Interpretation will be considered a change in accounting principle with the cumulative effect of the change recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. This Interpretation was effective for the Company on January 1, 2007. Adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820 (“ASC 820”) Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The Company did not record an adjustment to retained earnings as a result of the adoption of the guidance for fair value measurements, and the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations.

F-14

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

As of December 31, 2009, the Company’s warrant liability is considered a level 2 item, see Note 6.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company's operations are subject to new innovations in product design and function. Significant technical changes can have an adverse effect on product lives. Design and development of new products are important elements to achieve and maintain profitability in the Company's industry segment. The Company may be subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. The Company does not anticipate expenditures to comply with such laws and does not believe that regulations will have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. The Company believes that its operations comply, in all material respects, with applicable federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash accounts in a commercial bank and in an institutional money-market fund account. The total cash balances held in a commercial bank are secured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000, although on January 1, 2014 this amount is scheduled to return to $100,000 per depositor, per insured bank. At times, the Company has cash deposits in excess of federally insured limits. In addition, the Institutional Funds Account is insured through the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”) up to $500,000 per customer, including up to $100,000 for cash. At times, the Company has cash deposits in excess of federally and institutional insured limits.

As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Department of Energy made up 100% of Grant Revenue and Department of Energy grant receivables. Management believes the loss of these organizations would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Income (loss) per Common Share

The Company presents basic income (loss) per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS on the face of the consolidated statement of operations. Basic income (loss) per share is computed as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options, warrants, and other convertible securities. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company had approximately 3,287,159 options and 6,813,494 warrants outstanding, for which all of the exercise prices were in excess of the average closing price of the Company’s common stock during the corresponding year and thus no shares are considered a s dilutive under the treasury-stock method of accounting. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company had approximately 3,287,159 options and 7,386,694 warrants, to purchase shares of common stock that were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their effects would have been anti-dilutive due to the loss.

F-15

Debt Issuance Costs

During 2007 debt issuance costs represent costs incurred related to the Company’s senior secured convertible note payable. These costs were amortized over the term of the note using the effective interest method and expensed upon conversion of senior secured convertible note. During 2009, debt issuance costs represent the fees related to the loan fee application filed under the Department of Energy (DOE) Program. (see Note 5).

Share-Based Payments

The Company accounts for stock options issued to employees and consultants under ASC 718 formerly SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment”. Under SFAS 123(R), share-based compensation cost to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee's requisite vesting period.

The Company measures compensation expense for its non-employee stock-based compensation under ASC 505 formerly EITF No. 96-18 “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services” (“EITF 96-18”). The fair value of the option issued or committed to be issued is used to measure the transaction, as this is more reliable than the fair value of the services received. The fair value is measured at the value of the Company's common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been reached or the counterparty's performance is complete. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to stock-based compensation expense and credited to additional paid-in capital.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855 “Subsequent Events” (formerly SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events). FASB ASC 855 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855 is effective for interim and annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009 with no impact on the accompanying finanacial statements.

NOTE 3 – DEVELOPMENT CONTRACTS

Department of Energy Awards 1 and 2

In February 2007, the Company was awarded a grant for up to $40 million from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (“DOE”) cellulosic ethanol grant program to develop a solid waste biorefinery project at a landfill in Southern California. During October 2007, the Company finalized Award 1 for a total approved budget of just under $10,000,000 with the DOE. This award is a 60%/40% cost share, whereby 40% of approved costs may be reimbursed by the DOE pursuant to the total $40 million award announced in February 2007. In October 2009 the Company received from the DOE a one-time reimbursement of approximately $3,841,000. This was primarily related to the Company amending its award to include costs previously incurred in connecti on with the development of the Lancaster site which have a direct attributable benefit to the DOE Biorefinery.

In December 2009, as a result of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the DOE increased the Award 2 to a total of $81 million for Phase II of its DOE Biorefinery project. This brings the DOE’s total award to the Fulton project to approximately $88 million. This is in addition to a renegotiated Phase I funding for development of the DOE Biorefinery of approximately $7 million out of the previously announced $10 million total. This brings the total eligible funds for DOE Biorefinery to approximately $88 million. The Company is currently in negotiations with the DOE for Phase II of its DOE Biorefinery project.

Purchase of Lancaster Land

On November 9, 2007, the Company purchased approximately 95 acres of land in Lancaster, California for approximately $109,000, including certain site surveying and other acquisition costs. The Company intends to use the land for the construction of their first pilot refinery plant.

NOTE 5 – NOTES PAYABLE

Convertible Notes Payable

On July 13, 2007, the Company issued several convertible notes aggregating a total of $500,000 with eight accredited investors including $25,000 from the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. Under the terms of the notes, the Company was to repay any principal balance and interest, at 10% per annum within 120 days of the note. The holders also received warrants to purchase common stock at $5.00 per share. The warrants vested immediately and expire in five years. The total warrants issued pursuant to this transaction were 200,000 on a pro-rata basis to investors. The convertible promissory notes were only convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock in the event of a default. The conversion price was determined based on one third of the average of the last-trade prices of the Company’s common stoc k for the ten trading days preceding the default date.

The fair value of the warrants was $990,367 as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted-average assumptions: volatility of 113%, risk-free interest rate of 4.94%, dividend yield of 0%, and a term of five years.

The proceeds were allocated between the convertible notes payable and the warrants issued to the convertible note holders based on their relative fair values which resulted in $167,744 allocated to the convertible notes and $332,256 allocated to the warrants. The amount allocated to the warrants resulted in a discount to the convertible notes. The Company amortized the discount over the term of the convertible notes. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company amortized $332,256 of the discount to interest expense.

F-17

In accordance with ASC 470 formerly EITF 98-05 “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios”, the Company calculated the value of the beneficial conversion feature to be approximately $332,000 of which $167,744 was allocated to the convertible notes. However, since the convertible notes were convertible upon a contingent event, the value was recorded when such event was triggered.

On November 7, 2007, the Company re-paid the 10% convertible promissory notes totaling approximately $516,000 including interest of approximately $16,000. This included approximately $800 of accrued interest to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.

Senior Secured Convertible Notes Payable

On August 21, 2007, the Company issued senior secured convertible notes aggregating a total of $2,000,000 with two institutional accredited investors. Under the terms of the notes, the Company was to repay any principal balance and interest, at 8% per annum, due August 21, 2009. On a quarterly basis, the Company has the option to pay interest due in cash or in stock. The senior secured convertible notes were secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. The total warrants issued pursuant to this transaction were 1,000,000 on a pro-rata basis to investors. These include class A warrants to purchase 500,000 common stock at $5.48 per share and class B warrants to purchase an additional 500,000 shares of common stock at $6.32 per share. The warrants vested immediately and expire in three years. The senio r secured convertible note holders had the option to convert the note into shares of the Company’s common stock at $4.21 per share at any time prior to maturity. If, before maturity, the Company consummated a Financing of at least $10,000,000 then the principal and accrued unpaid interest of the senior secured convertible notes would be automatically converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at $4.21 per share.

The fair value of the warrants was approximately $3,500,000 as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted-average assumptions: volatility of 118%, risk-free interest rate of 4.05%, dividend yield of 0% and a term of three years. The proceeds were allocated between the senior secured convertible notes and the warrants issued to the convertible note holders based on their relative fair values and resulted in $728,571 being allocated to the senior secured convertible promissory notes and $1,279,429 allocated to the warrants. The resulting discount was to be amortized over the life of the notes.

In accordance with ASC 470 formerly EITF 98-05 “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios”, as amended by EITF 00-27, the Company calculated the value of the beneficial conversion feature to be approximately $1,679,000 of which approximately $728,000 was allocated to the beneficial conversion feature resulting in 100% discount to the convertible promissory notes. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company amortized approximately $312,000 of the discount related to the warrants and beneficial conversion feature to interest expense and $1,688,000 to loss on extinguishment, see below for discussion.

In addition, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the holders of the senior secured convertible notes agreement whereby the Company was required to file an initial registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to register the resale of the maximum amount of common stock underlying the secured convertible notes within 120 days of the Exchange Agreement (December 19, 2007). The registration statement was filed with the SEC on December 19, 2007. The registration statement was then declared effective on March 27, 2008. The Company incurred no liquidated damages.

Modification of Conversion Price and Warrant Exercise Price on Senior Secured Convertible Note Payable

On December 3, 2007, the Company modified the conversion price into common stock on its outstanding senior secured convertible notes from $4.21 to $2.90 per share. The Company also modified the exercise price of the Class A and B warrants issued with convertible notes from $5.48 and $6.32, respectively, to $2.90 per share.

F-18

In accordance with ASC 470 formerly EITF 96-19 and EITF 06-6, the Company recorded an extinguishment loss of approximately $2,818,000 for the modification of the conversion price as the fair value of the conversion price immediately before and after the modification was greater than 10% of the carrying amount of the original debt instrument immediately prior to the modification. The loss on extinguishment was determined based on the difference between the fair value of the new instruments issued and the previous carrying value of the convertible debt at the date of extinguishment. Upon modification, the carrying amount of the senior secured convertible notes payable of $2,000,000 and accrued interest of approximately $33,000 was converted into a total of 700,922 shares of common stock at $2.90 and $2.96 per share, respective ly. Prior to the modification, during the quarter ended September 30, 3007, the Company satisfied its interest obligation of approximately $20,000 by issuing 3,876 shares of the Company’s common stock at $4.48 per share in lieu of cash.

The extinguishment loss and non-cash interest expense for the warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: volatility of 122.9%, expected life of 4.72 years, risk free interest rate of 3.28%, market price per share of $3.26, and no dividends.

Debt Issuance Costs

During 2007, debt issuance fees and expenses of approximately $207,000 were incurred in connection with the senior secured convertible note. These fees consisted of a cash payment of $100,000 and the issuance of warrants to purchase 23,731 shares of common stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $5.45, vested immediately and expire in five years. The warrants were valued at approximately $107,000 as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted-average assumptions: volatility of 118%, risk-free interest rate of 4.05%, dividend yield of 0% and a term of five years. These costs were amortized over the term of the note using the effective interest method and expensed upon conversion of senior secured convertible note. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company amortized approxi mately $32,000 of the debt issuance costs to interest expense and approximately $175,000 to loss on extinguishment, see above for further discussion.

During 2009, debt issuance costs of $150,000 have been incurred in connection with the Company submitting an application for a $58 million dollar loan guarantee for the Company's planned cellulosic ethanol biorefinery planned at Lancaster. The application, filed under the Department of Energy (DOE) Program DE-FOA-0000140, which provides federal loan guarantees for projects that employ innovative energy efficiency, renewable energy, and advanced transmission and distribution technologies.

NOTE 6 - OUTSTANDING WARRANT LIABILITY

Effective January 1, 2009 we adopted the provisions of Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”) formerly EITF 07-5, "Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” (“EITF 07-5”). ASC 815 applies to any freestanding financial instruments or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock. As a result of adopting ASC 815 , 6,962,963 of our issued and outstanding common stock purchase warrants previously treated as equity pursuant to the derivative treatment exemption were no longer afforded equity treatment. These warrants have an exercise price of $2.90; 5,962,563 warrants expire in December 2012 and 1,000,000 expire August 2010. As such, effective January 1, 2009 we reclassified the fair value of these common stock purchase warrants, which have exercise price reset features, from equity to liability status as if these warrants were treated as a derivative liability since their date of issue in August 2007 and December 2007. On January 1, 2009, we reclassified from additional paid-in capital, as a cumulative effect adjustment, $15.7 million to beginning retained earnings and $2.9 million to a long-term warrant liability to recognize the fair value of such warrants on such date.

The Company assesses the fair value of the warrants quarterly based on the Black-Scholes pricing model. See below for variables used in assessing the fair value.

In connection with the 5,962,963 warrants to expire in December 2012, the Company recognized a gain of $241,431 from the change in fair value of these warrants during the year ended December 31, 2009.

F-19

On October 19, 2009, the Company cancelled 673,200 warrants for $220,000 in cash. These warrants were part of the 1,000,000 warrants issued in August 2007, and were set to expire August 2010. Prior to October 19, 2009, the warrants were previously accounted for as a derivative liability and marked to their fair value at each reporting period in 2009. The Company valued these warrants the day immediately preceding the cancellation date which indicated a gain on the changed in fair value of $208,562 and a remaining fair value of $73,282. Upon cancellation the remaining value was extinguished for payment of $220,000 in cash, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of $146,718. In connection with the remaining 326,800 warrants set to expire in August 2010, the Company recognized a gain of $117,468 for the change in fair value of these warran ts during the year ended December 31, 2009.

These common stock purchase warrants were initially issued in connection with two private offerings, our August 2007 issuance of 689,655 shares of common stock and our December 2007 issuance of 5,740,741 shares of common stock. The common stock purchase warrants were not issued with the intent of effectively hedging any future cash flow, fair value of any asset, liability or any net investment in a foreign operation. The warrants do not qualify for hedge accounting, and as such, all future changes in the fair value of these warrants will be recognized currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised or expire. These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, we estimate the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions:

	December 31,			January 1,
	2009			2009
Annual dividend yield		-			-
Expected life (years) of August 2007 issuance		.64			1.6
Expected life (years) of December 2007 issuance		3.0			4.0
Risk-free interest rate		2.69	%		1.55	%
Expected volatility of August 2007 issuance		101	%		150	%
Expected volatility of December 2007 issuance		95	%		150	%

Expected volatility is based primarily on historical volatility. Historical volatility for the August 2007 issuance was computed using weekly pricing observations for recent periods that correspond to the expected life of the warrants. The Company believes this method produces an estimate that is representative of our expectations of future volatility over the expected term of these warrants. The Company currently has no reason to believe future volatility over the expected remaining life of these warrants is likely to differ materially from historical volatility. The expected life is based on the remaining term of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities rates.

NOTE 7 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Employment Agreements

On June 27, 2006, the Company entered into employment agreements with three key employees. The employment agreements are for a period of three years, which expired in 2009, with prescribed percentage increases beginning in 2007 and can be cancelled upon a written notice by either employee or employer (if certain employee acts of misconduct are committed). The total aggregate annual amount due under the employment agreements was approximately $586,000 per year. These contracts have not been renewed. Each of the executive officers are currently working for the Company on a month to month basis.

On March 31, 2008, the Board of Directors of the Company replaced our Chief Financial Officer’s previously existing at-will Employment Agreement with a new employment agreement, effective February 1, 2008, and terminating on May 31, 2009, unless extended for additional periods by mutual agreement of both parties. The new agreement contained the following material terms: (i) initial annual salary of $120,000, paid monthly; and (ii) standard employee benefits; (iii) limited termination provisions; (iv) rights to Invention provisions; and (v) confidentiality and non-compete provisions upon termination of employment. This employement agreement expired on May 31, 2009, and Mr. Scott currently serves the Company on a part-time basis as CFO o n a month to month basis.

F-20

Board of Director Arrangements

On July 23, 2009, the Company renewed all of its existing Directors’ appointment, issued 6,000 shares to each and paid $5,000 to the three outside member. Pursuant to the Board of Director agreements, the Company's "in-house" board members (CEO and Vice-President) waived their annual cash compensation of $5,000. The value of the common stock granted was determined to be approximately $26,400 based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock of $0.88 on the date of the grant. During the year 2009 the Company expensed approximately $41,400 related to these agreements.

Investor Relations Agreements

On November 9, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with a consultant. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is to receive investor relations and support services in exchange for a monthly fee of $7,500, 150,000 shares of common stock, warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock at $5.00 per share, expiring in five years, and the reimbursement of certain travel expenses. The common stock and warrants vested in equal amounts on November 9, 2006, February 1, 2007, April 1, 2007 and June 1, 2007. The Company accounted for the agreement under the provisions of ASC 505 formerly EITF 96-18.

NOTE 8 -STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Amended and Restated 2006 Incentive and Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan

On December 14, 2006, the Company established the 2006 incentive and nonstatutory stock option plan (the “Plan”). The Plan is intended to further the growth and financial success of the Company by providing additional incentives to selected employees, directors, and consultants. Stock options granted under the Plan may be either "Incentive Stock Options" or "Nonstatutory Options" at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The total number of shares of Stock which may be purchased through exercise of Options granted under this Plan shall not exceed ten million (10,000,000) shares, they become exercisable over a period of no longer than five (5) years and no less than 20% of the shares covered thereby shall become exercisable annually.

F-21

On October 16, 2007, the Board reviewed the Plan. As such, it determined that the Plan was to be used as a comprehensive equity incentive program for which the Board serves as the Plan administrator; and therefore added the ability to grant restricted stock awards under the Plan.

Under the amended and restated Plan, an eligible person in the Company’s service may acquire a proprietary interest in the Company in the form of shares or an option to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. The amendment includes certain previously granted restricted stock awards as having been issued under the amended and restated Plan. As of December 31, 2009, 3,307,159 options and 268,412 shares have been issued under the plan. As of December 31, 2009, 6,424,429 shares are still issuable under the Plan.

Stock Options

On December 14, 2006, the Company granted options to purchase 1,990,000 shares of common stock to various employees and consultants having a $2.00 exercise price. The value of the options granted was determined to be approximately $4,900,000 based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: volatility of 99%, expected life of five (5) years, risk free interest rate of 4.73%, market price per share of $3.05, and no dividends. The Company expensed the value of the options over the vesting period of two years for the employees. For non-employees the Company revalued the fair market value of the options at each reporting period under the provisions of ASC 505.

On December 20, 2007, the Company granted options to purchase 1,038,750 shares of the Company’s common stock to various employees and consultants having an exercise price of $3.20 per share. In addition, on the same date, the Company granted its President and Chief Executive Officer 250,000 and 28,409 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock having an exercise price of $3.20 and $3.52, respectively. The value of the options granted was determined to be approximately $3,482,000 based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: volatility of 122.9%, expected life of five (5) years, risk free interest rate of 3.09%, market price per share of $3.20, and no dividends. Of the total 1,317,159 options granted on December 20, 2007, 739,659 vested immediately and 27,500 i ssued to consultants vested monthly over a one year period, and 550,000 of the options vested upon two contingent future events. Management’s belief at the time of the grant was that the events were probable to occur and were within their control, and thus accounted for the remaining vesting under ASC 718 by straight-lining the vesting through the expected date on which the future events were to occur. At the time, management believed that future date was June 30, 2008. This determination was based on the fact that the Company appeared to be on track to receive the permits and the related funding was available. In June 2008, the Company determined that the June 30, 2008 estimate would not be met due to delays in receiving the necessary permits and thus modified the date to September 30, 2008. In September 2008, the Company determined that the September 30, 2008 deadline would not be met due to the difficulty in obtaining financing due to the pending collapse of the capital markets . At that point the remaining unamortized portion was immaterial and thus, the Company expensed the remaining amounts. Although the options were expensed according to ASC 718, the recipients are still not fully vested as the triggering events have not yet occurred.

The Company accounts for the stock options to consultants under the provisions of ASC 505. In accordance with ASC 505, as of December 31, 2008, the options awarded to consultants under the 2006 and 2007 Stock Option Grant were re-valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: volatility of 150%, risk free interest rate of 1.55%, no dividends, expected life for the 2006 stock option award of three years; and expected life for the 2007 stock option award of four years. As of December 31, 2009 stock options to consultants were fully expensed and vested.

F-22

In connection with the Company’s 2007 and 2006 stock option awards, during the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and for the period from March 28, 2006 (Inception) to December 31, 2009, the Company recognized stock based compensation, including consultants, of approximately $232,000, $1,691,000 and $4,487,000 to general and administrative expenses and $0, $2,078,000 and $4,368,000 to project development expenses, respectively. There is no additional future compensation expense to record at December 31, 2009 based on previous awards.

A summary of the status of the stock option grants under the Plan as of the years ended December 31, 2007, 2008, and 2009 and changes during this period are presented as follows:

	Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (Years)

Options exercisable at December 31, 2009		2,737,159		$	2.34		2.40

There were no amounts received for the exercise of stock options in 2008 or 2009.

As of December 31, 2009, the average intrinsic value of the options outstanding is zero as the exercise prices were in excess of the closing price of the Company’s common stock as of December 31, 2009.

Private Offerings

On January 5, 2007, the Company completed a private offering of its stock, and entered into subscription agreements with four accredited investors. In this offering, the Company sold an aggregate of 278,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $2.00 per share for total proceeds of $557,000. The shares of common stock were offered and sold to the investors in private placement transactions made in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933. In addition, the Company paid $12,500 in cash and issued 6,250 shares of their common stock as a finder’s fee.

On December 3, 2007 and December 14, 2007, the Company issued an aggregate of 5,740,741 shares of common stock at $2.70 per share and issued warrants to purchase 5,740,741 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $15,500,000. The warrants have an exercise price of $2.90 per share and expire five years from the date of issuance.

The value of the warrants was determined to be approximately $15,968,455 based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: volatility of 122.9%, expected life of five (5) years, risk free interest rate of 3.28%, market price per share of $3.26, and no dividends. The relative fair value of the warrants did not have an impact on the financial statements as they were issued in connection with a capital raise and recorded as additional paid-in capital.

F-23

The warrants are subject to “full-ratchet” anti-dilution protection in the event the Company (other than excluded issuances, as defined) issues any additional shares of stock, stock options, warrants or any securities exchangeable into common stock at a price of less than $2.90 per share. If the Company issues securities for less $2.90 per share then the exercise price for the warrants shall be adjusted to equal to the lower price.

In connection with the capital raise, the Company paid $1,050,000 to placement agents, $90,000 in legal fees and issued warrants for the purchase of 222,222 shares of common stock. The warrants were valued at $618,133 based on the Black-Scholes assumptions above as recorded as a cost of the capital raised by the Company.

Issuance of Common Stock related to Employment Agreements

In January 2007, the Company issued 10,000 shares of common stock to an employee in connection with an employment agreement. The shares were valued on the initial date of employment at $40,000 based on the closing market of the Company’s common stock on that date.

On February 12, 2007, the Company entered into an employment agreement with a key employee, and simultaneously entered into a consulting agreement with an entity controlled by such employee; both agreements were effective March 16, 2007. Under the terms of the consulting agreement, the consulting entity received 50,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. The common stock was valued at approximately $275,000 based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the agreement. The shares vest in equal quarterly installments on February 12, 2007, June 1, December 1, and December 1, 2007. The Company amortized the entire fair value of the common stock of $275,000 over the vesting period during the year ended December 31, 2007. No additional issuances were made in 2008 or 2009.</f ont>

Shares Issued for Services

On August 27, 2009, the Company entered into a 6-month Consulting Agreement with Mirador Consulting, Inc. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company will receive services in connection with mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance, corporate finance relations, introductions to other financial relations companies and other financial services. As consideration for these services, the Company will make monthly cash payments of $3,000 and has issued, or will issue, 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for $200. The Company valued the shares at $0.80 based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, the shares did not have any future performance requirement nor were they cancellable. The Company expensed the entire value on the date of the agreement and recorded to general and administrative expense. Under the terms of the agreement the Company was to issue 100,000 shares on execution of the agreement and November 15, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, the Company has yet to issue the remaining 100,000 shares due to the pending negotiation of a new agreement.

Throughout the year the Company issued 33,912 shares of common stock for legal services provided. In connection with this issuance the Company recorded $37,818 in legal expense which is included in general and administrative expense. The Company valued the shares using the closing market price on the date of issuance. The Company expensed the shares on the date of issuance as the services had been provided and there was no future performance criteria.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company entered into various placement agent agreements, whereby payments are only ultimately due if capital is raised.

As of December 31, 2008, the Company had not incurred any liabilities related to the agreement.

Related Party Line of Credit

In February 2009, the Company obtained a line of credit in the amount of $570,000 from Arkenol Inc, its technology licensor, to provide additional liquidity to the Company as needed. In October 2009 $175,000 was utilized from the line of credit and in November 2009 the balance was paid in full along with approximately $500 interest. As of December 31, 2009, there were no amount outstanding and the line of credit was deemed cancelled as the Company did not anticipate utilizing funds from the line of credit.

NOTE 10 – INCOME TAXES

Income tax reporting primarily relates to the business of the parent company Blue Fire Ethanol Fuels, Inc. which experienced a change in ownership on June 27, 2006. A change in ownership requires management to compute the annual limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The amount of benefits the Company may receive from the operating loss carry forwards for income tax purposes is further dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, the future earnings of the Company, and other future events, the effects of which cannot be determined.

The Company had an estimated state tax liability at December 31, 2009 of approximately $83,000. The prior net operating losses could not be applied due to the state of California’s suspension of net operating loss (NOL) deductions with net business income of $500,000 or more in 2009. There is no current provision or liability for federal reporting purposes, and no deferred income tax expense is recorded since the deferred tax assets have been recorded as discussed below.

F-26

The Company's deferred tax assets consist solely of net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $8,563,000 and $8,824,000 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. For federal tax purposes these carry forwards expire in twenty years beginning in 2026 and for the State of California purposes they expire in five years beginning in 2011. A full valuation allowance has been placed on 100% of the Company's deferred tax assets as it cannot be determined if the assets will be ultimately used to offset future income, if any. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, and for the period from March 28, 2006 (Inception) to December 31, 2009, the valuation decreased by approximately $261,000, and increase by approximately $5,477,000, and $8,563,000, respectively.

The difference between the California statutory rate of approximately 8.83% and the actual provision rate is due to permanent difference required to get to taxable income. These permanent differences relate primarily to the gain on derivative liability and the loss on repurchase of warrants. The Company has not provided a reconciliation to the provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2008 as the difference between the statutory rates and the actual provision rate relate to changes in the NOLs and the corresponding valuation allowance.

In addition, the Company is not current in their federal and state income tax filings due to previous delinquencies by Sucre prior to the reverse acquisition. The Company has assessed and determined that the effect of non filing is not expected to be significant, as Sucre has not had active operations for a significant period of time.

The Company has filed all other United States Federal and State tax returns. The Company has identified the United States Federal tax returns as its “major” tax jurisdiction. The United States Federal return years 2006 through 2008 are still subject to tax examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service, however, we do not currently have any ongoing tax examinations. The Company is subject to examination by the California Franchise Tax Board for the years ended 2005 through 2008 and currently does not have any ongoing tax examinations.

Convertible Notes Payable

On July 13, 2007, we issued several convertible notes aggregating a total of $500,000 with seven accredited investors, including $25,000 from our Chief Financial Officer. Under the terms of the notes, we are required to repay any principal balance and interest, at 10% per annum within 120 days of the note. The convertible promissory note is convertible only upon default. The holders also received warrants to purchase common stock at $5.00 per share. The warrants vest immediately and expire in five years. The total warrants issued pursuant to this transaction were 200,000 on a pro-rata basis to investors. The convertible promissory notes are only convertible into shares of our common stock in the event of a default. The conversion price is determined based on one third of the average of the last-trade prices of our common stock for the ten trading days preceding the default date. On November 7, 2007, we re-paid all of our 10% convertible promissory notes dated July 13, 2007, to all our private investors, totaling approximately $516,000, including interest of approximately $16,000. This private offering was completed as an offering exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.

Senior Secured Convertible Notes Payable

On August 21, 2007, we issued senior secured convertible notes (the “Convertible Notes”) aggregating a total of $2,000,000 with two institutional accredited investors. Under the terms of the Convertible Notes, we are required to repay any principal balance and interest, at 8% per annum, due August 21, 2009. On a quarterly basis, we have the option to pay interest due in cash or in stock. The Convertible Notes are secured by substantially all of our assets. The total warrants issued pursuant to this transaction were 1,000,000 on a pro-rata basis to investors. These include class A warrants to purchase 500,000 common stock at $5.48 per share and class B warrants to purchase an additional 500,000 shares of common stock at $6.32 per share. The warrants vest immediately and expire in three years. The holders of the Convertible Notes have the option to convert the Convertible Notes into shares of our common stock at $4.21 per share at any time prior to maturity. If, before maturity, we consummate a financing of at least $10,000,000, then the principal and accrued unpaid interest of the Convertible Notes shall be automatically converted into shares of our common stock at $4.21 per share. In addition, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the holders of the Convertible Notes whereby we are required to file an initial registration statement on Form SB-2 or Form S-3 with the SEC in order to register the resale of the maximum amount of common stock underlying the Convertible Notes within 120 days of the agreement (December 19, 2007). The registration statement must then be declared effective no later than 90 calendar days (March 18, 2008), in the event of a full or no review by the SEC, days from the initial filing date.

In the event that we fail to file a registration statement within the 120 day period, we must pay the holder 3% of the face amount as liquidated damages. In the event that we fail to have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC by the dates described above, or fail to maintain on the registration statement the effectiveness of the registration statement thereafter, then we must pay the holders an amount equal to 2% of the aggregate purchase price paid by each holder, for each month the registration statement remains uncured. In addition, if we do not complete a qualified financing within 120 days of the a (December 19, 2007), we must pay the holder an additional 1% of the face amount as liquidated damages. Liquidated damages cannot exceed 15% of the face amount of the Convertible Notes. No accrual has been made to the accompanying financial statements as management does not believe that such damages are probable of being incurred.

On December 3, 2007 and December 14, 2007, we consummated an agreement to issue up to 5,740,741 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 5,740,741 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $14,360,000 (the “December Private Placement”). The warrants have an exercise price of $2.90 per share and expire five years from the date of issuance.

In connection with the December Private Placement, we modified the conversion price of our previously issued 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes (“Convertible Notes”) from $4.21 to $2.90 per share. We also modified the exercise price of the class “A” and class “B” warrants issued with the Convertible Notes from $5.48 and $6.32, respectively to $2.90 per share.

On December 14, 2007, the holders of the Convertible Notes converted their outstanding principal balance of $2,000,000 and accrued interest of $33,333 into 700,922 shares of common stock.

Equity Offering

In addition, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the investors whereby the Company is required to file an initial registration statement on Form SB-2 (or another applicable registration form) with the SEC in order to register the resale of the above common stock and warrants to purchase common stock. The registration statement is required to be filed within 45 days from December 14, 2007. The registration statement must then be declared effective no later than 150 calendar days (May 12, 2008) from the initial filing date.

The Company also agreed to register the conversion shares and shares underlying the warrants issued in connection with its previously Convertible Notes. The details of the registration rights of the Convertible Notes can be found in the Company’s August 28, 2007 8-K.

In the event the Company fails to file its initial registration statement within the 45 day period or, in the event that the Company fails to have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC by the dates described above, then the Company must pay the investors certain liquidated damages.

Loan Agreement

Equity Purchase Agreement

On January 19, 2011, the Company signed a $10 million purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“LPC”), an Illinois limited liability company. Upon signing the Purchase Agreement, BlueFire received $150,000 from LPC as an initial purchase under the $10 million commitment in exchange for 428,571 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 428,571 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.55 per share. We also entered into a registration rights agreement with LPC whereby we agreed to file a registration statement related to the transaction with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) covering the shares that may be issued to LPC under the Purchase Agreement. After the SEC has declared effective the registration statement related to the transaction, we have the right, in our sole discretion, over a 30-month period to sell our shares of common stock to LPC in amounts up to $500,000 per sale, depending on certain conditions as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, up to the aggregate commitment of $10 million. There are no upper limits to the price LPC may pay to purchase our common stock and the purchase price of the shares related to the $9.85 million of future additional funding will be based on the prevailing market prices of the Company’s shares immediately preceding the time of sales without any fixed discount, and the Company controls the timing and amount of any future sales, if any, of shares to LPC. LPC shall not have the right or the obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock on any business day that the price of our common stock is below $0.15. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, closing conditions and indemnification and termination provisions by, among and for the benefit of the parties. LPC has covenanted not to cause or engage in any manner whatsoever, any direct or indirect short selling or hedging of the Company’s shares of common stock. In consideration for entering into the $10 million agreement, we issued to LPC 600,000 shares of our common stock as a commitment fee and shall issue up to 600,000 shares pro rata as LPC purchases up to the remaining $9.85 million. The Purchase Agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without any cost to us. Except for a limitation on variable priced financings, there are no financial or business covenants, restrictions on future fundings, rights of first refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages in the agreement. The Company accounts for these penalties as contingent liabilities. Accordingly, the Company recognizes damages when it becomes probable that they will be incurred and amounts are reasonably estimable. The proceeds received by the Company under the purchase agreement are expected to be used for general working capital purposes.

Undertakings.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

i. To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

ii. To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

iii. To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

i. Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

ii. Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

iii. The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

iv. Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
