Cost of the entire process is equivalent to about 20 cents per gallon of
gasoline

Welp, that's the claim. One could hide an elephant in ir. Infrastructure,

Remember "electricity too cheap to measure". And remember that cars are not
the predominant cause of CO2 emissions.

A more interesting question is "What does it cost per ton of coal?"
