Analysts’ Views on Global Biofuels Market

Biofuels are transportation fuels produced from biomass-based renewable resources such as plants, microorganisms, or animal by-products. Biofuel is considered pure and the easiest available fuels on planet earth. Most biofuel production currently uses so-called conventional feedstocks, such as sugar cane, corns, and soybeans. Since such feedstock material can be replenished readily, biofuel is considered to be a source of renewable energy, unlike fossil fuels such as petroleum, coal, and natural gas. The two most common types of biofuels in use today are ethanol and biodiesel, both of which represent the first generation of biofuel technology.

Key Trends and Analysis of the Global Biofuels Market:

Rapid growth of the transportation sector is one of the key trends expected to augment the growth of the global biofuels market. For instance, worldwide, the transport sector is the largest emitter of greenhouse gases due to the combustion of fossil fuels in its internal combustion engines. Thereby, several countries across the globe are promoting the use of renewable energy resources to limit the greenhouse gas emission. Biofuels can be used as clean energy source for the transportation sector and help reduce greenhouse gas/carbon emissions. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), in 2022 biofuels represented over 3.5% of global transport energy demand, mainly for road transport. This trend is expected to continue over the forecast period.

Global Biofuels Market – Drivers

Increasing demand for biofuels to augment market growth

The high compatibility of biodiesel with existing diesel engine has increased demand for biodiesel. Furthermore, increasing global population and increasing number of vehicles around the world has increased demand for biofuels. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), percentage of biofuels blended into gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel is expected to increase from 7.3% in 2019 to a high of 9.0% in 2040. The United States, Europe, Indonesia, and Brazil are responsible for the majority of biodiesel, renewable diesel and bio-jet fuel consumption. Moreover, total global biofuel demand is estimated to increase more than 20% between 2020 and 2027.

Government mandates or support to propel market growth

Several governments across the world have adopted norms to promote the use of renewable energy resources (such as biofuels). For instance, primary blending mandates that drive the global demand for biofuels are set in North America, Europe, India, Indonesia, Brazil, and Malaysia. A ‘Roadmap for Ethanol Blending in India 2020-25’ (released by the Government of India in June, 2021) lays out an annual plan to increase domestic production of ethanol in line with target of the amended National Policy on Biofuels (2018) as well as with its Ethanol Blended Petrol (EBP) Programme to reach a blending of 20% of ethanol in petrol (E20) by 2025/26. Such measures are expected to highlight the increase in the use of biofuels across the country.

Global Biofuels Market – Restrain

Environmental concerns to hamper the market growth

One of the key factors expected to hamper the growth of the global biofuels market is the feedstock availability and competition and land use change and environmental concerns. The availability of cost-effective and sustainable feedstock for the production of biofuel is a significant challenge, as there is competition for land and resources between food production, biofuel feedstocks, and other agricultural commodities. Biofuel production can also lead to land use change, habitat destruction, and deforestation, especially if feedstocks are sourced from sensitive areas. These environmental concerns must be addressed to ensure the sustainability of biofuel production.

Global Biofuels Market – Opportunities

High demand for advanced biofuels is expected to offer significant growth opportunities for players in the global biofuels market.

Worldwide, the demand for advanced biofuels is on the rise, and thus, market players are focusing on the development and commercialization of advanced biofuels, such as cellulosic ethanol, bio-butanol, renewable diesel, and renewable jet fuel. Unlike ethanol, advanced biofuels can replace gasoline, diesel, and jet fuels in today's combustion engines on the gallon-for-gallon basis with no loss of performance. Moreover, advanced biofuels help reduce carbon emissions, offer high energy density, and reduce competition with food crops compared to first-generation biofuels. In February 2023, Portugal’s largest producer of biofuels, PRIO, announced the launch of a new 30% advanced biofuel blend, ECO Bunkers B30 biofuel.

Global Biofuels Market - Key Developments

In February 2023, Green Biofuels Limited launched Ireland's first renewable biofuel terminal in a built facility in Cork Harbour. Through its Irish business Green D Project Ltd., a new terminal is a major commitment by GBF to Ireland's cleaner energy infrastructure for transport and generator power, further accelerating the transition to Net Zero.

In February 2023, Indonesia launched higher blend of palm oil-based biodiesel. The government has launched a mandatory biodiesel with 35% palm oil content, B35, aimed at reducing reliance on imported diesel and propping up demand for the versatile vegetable oil.

In October 2022, India planned to pitch for a Global Alliance on Biofuels among members of the group of 20 major economies. The Global Biofuels Alliance (GBA) will work towards enhancing global collaboration and cooperation for adoption of biofuels and to identify global best practices for their development and deployment.
