- An estimate of market size and analyses of global market trends, with data from 2022, estimates for 2023, and projections of compound annual growth rates (CAGRs) through 2028
- An evaluation of the market potential for biofuels based on biofuel type and region
- Coverage of technical and commercial developments in advanced biofuels, and an assessment of manufacturing methods, feedstock options, typical plant costs, operating margins, and the emerging technologies in the biofuel sector
- A look at the regulatory framework regarding the use of biofuels, incentives for fuel production, and the number and capacity of manufacturing plants; and information on the Paris Climate Accords, investments in biofuel technologies, and collaborations between companies
- Analysis of significant patent activity in biofuels
- A market outlook for the major companies, including a market share analysis and assessment of the competitive landscape
- Company profiles of major players within the industry, including ADM, Chevron Renewable Energy Group, Green Plains Inc., and HF Sinclair Corp.
Executive Summary
Summary:
According to BCC Research, the global biofuel market is expected to grow in the forecasted period. The global biofuel market will increase from $REDACTED billion in 2023 to $REDACTED billion in 2028, representing a REDACTED% CAGR. North America accounted for REDACTED% of all market revenue in 2022, followed by South America's REDACTED% and Europe's REDACTED% market share. Based on the type of biofuels, ethanol constituted REDACTED% of the market share in 2022.
In terms of volume, 2022 saw approximately a REDACTED% increase in biofuel consumption compared to 2021. The U.S. and EU biofuel policies mainly derived the market. The ethanol market increased by REDACTED%, while the biodiesel increased by REDACTED% for the same period. However, biodiesel is expected to grow at a higher CAGR than the ethanol market in the forecast period. This is because the demand for renewable diesel is increasing as companies focus on producing low-carbon intensity fuels. Renewable diesel is made from waste and residue, unlike conventional biodiesel and ethanol from food-based feedstock.
