Methanol is essentially wood alcohol, it's a very simple alcohol, it can be made from anything that contains carbon.

Methanol, we just found a lot of natural gas in this country; natural gas prices are very low; natural gas burns cleaner than oil. Why not make methanol from natural gas?

Methanol from natural gas sells today for about one dollar a gallon; clearly very competitive with oil.
