Global Biofuels Outlook to 2025

Hart’s Global Biofuels Center (GBC) recently completed its Global Biofuels Outlook, 2012-2025: Projecting Market Demand by Country, Region and Globally, providing insight and analysis about the global biofuels market. A comprehensive analysis of the global ethanol & biodiesel market with focus on key developments in North America, Latin America, Asia Pacific, EU-27, Africa, Russia & the CIS countries, and the Americas, broken down at country level. Covering predominantly ethanol and biodiesel, but also covering ETBE (ethyl tertiary butyl ether), cellulosic ethanol and renewable diesel (also known as non-ester biodiesel) where applicable, the study captures the current and near-term biofuels supply and demand picture in 20 countries in five key regions. This presentation will provide an overview of the results of the study focusing on:

• Key policies, market developments and trends driving supply and demand development in these regions;
• A review of next generation biofuels and how projects are progressing globally;
• The supply outlook through the 2025 period, reviewing biofuels production facilities and production trends;
• The demand outlook through the 2025 time period reviewing policies that are expected to be implemented in this timeframe, hindrances that could serve to delay some programs and relevant technology developments; and
• Findings and “take-aways” that provide new insight into the global biofuels marketplace.
