The liquid biofuels market is estimated to be valued at USD 89.18 Bn in 2024, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4% from 2024 to 2031. Liquid biofuels are an alternative fuel made from biomass feedstock like vegetable oils, animal fats, sugar cane, corn, etc. They include fuels like biodiesel, ethanol, bioethanol, biomethanol, bio-butanol, etc. Liquid biofuels are considered environmentally sustainable and a renewable source of energy as they are produced from biomass. They serve as alternatives to conventional fossil fuels and help reduce dependence on petroleum. Usage of liquid biofuels also contributes to lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil fuels.
Market Dynamics:
Increasing support through favorable government policies promoting the use of renewable and clean fuels is a key driver for the liquid biofuels market. Many nations have mandated blending targets for liquid biofuels to be mixed with gasoline and diesel. Rising crude oil prices and supply security concerns also motivate the usage of liquid biofuels. Technological advancements in the production process of biofuels along with second and third generation biofuel feedstock present lucrative opportunities. However, high production and infrastructure costs restrain the market growth. Fluctuations in agricultural commodity prices of feedstock also impact the liquid biofuels market.
