“In terms of the long-term outlook for biomass and biofuels, the largest proportion of our industry survey respondents (47%) thought that biofuels would account for 5-10% of total global fuel production by 2017. ”

Over 80 per cent of the world’s primary energy supply is currently derived from fossil fuels. Concerns around energy security, climate change and rising oil prices are driving the search for cheaper and more environmentally friendly alternatives. However, it is only recently that technological advances and reduced production costs have meant biofuels can fulfil this need.
The Biofuels Market Outlook: Market drivers, growth opportunities and regulatory change provides forecasts for the biodiesel and ethanol markets, analyses the predicted growth of the biofuel economy, and how it is likely to influence fuel and biofuel prices. It details the strategies, incentives and legislation intended to boost the production and consumption of biofuels. It also contains the results of our proprietary industry survey detailing attitudes and perceptions towards biofuels.

Biomass is a renewable energy resource derived from the carbonaceous waste of various human and natural activities. It is derived from numerous sources, including the by-products from the timber industry, agricultural crops, raw material from the forest, major parts of household waste and wood.

Scientists are trying to explore the advantages of biomass energy as an alternative energy source as it is renewable and free from net CO2 (carbon dioxide) emissions, and is abundantly available on earth in the form of agricultural residue, city garbage, cattle dung, firewood, etc. Bio-energy, in the form of biogas, which is derived from biomass, is expected to become one of the key energy resources for global sustainable development. A new research report from Energy Business Reports looks at the potential of using biofuels to combat the energy crisis.

Biomass, the renewable energy resource derived from waste, comes from both human and natural activities and uses by-products from the timber industry, agricultural crops, raw material from forests, household trash, and wood. Like wind, solar and other forms of renewable energy, biomass produces fewer emissions than its fossil fuel counterparts. After fossil fuels, biomass is the most widely used fuel in the world.

Biofuel is any fuel that is derived from biomass – recently living organisms or their metabolic byproducts, such as manure from cows. It is a renewable energy source, unlike other natural resources such as petroleum, coal, and nuclear fuels. These biofuels do not give rise to greenhouse gas emissions to the same extent as non-renewable energy sources.
