In addition, the growing government initiatives is driving the growth of renewable fuel market in Asia-Pacific region. By 2022, the Indian government wants to install 175 GW of renewable fuel capacity, with 100 GW of solar, 10 GW of biopower, 60 GW of wind, and 5 GW of small hydropower. In addition, by 2022, the Indian Ministry of New and Renewable Energy aims to fund $15 billion in renewable fuel.

North America is expected to develop at the fastest rate during the forecast period. The U.S. dominates the renewable fuel market in North America region. The renewable fuel market in North America region is growing due to the surge in demand for biofuel in the region. Biofuels, such as biodiesel and biogasoline, produced 623 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day in the North American region in 2020. Ethanol contributed substantially more to output than biodiesel, contributing for over 500 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day.

Growth Factors

One of the key factors driving the growth of global renewable fuel market is technological advancements and adoption of innovative technologies.

Moreover, continuous research into the commercialization of second and third generation biofuels will support the growth of global renewable fuel market throughout the projection period.

The key market players are focusing even more on long term values, and several of the region’s biggest market players have established sustainable sourcing techniques for evaluating long term contracts. To acquire market share, the leading players in the global renewable fuel market are likewise adopting a stable and low risk strategy. To meet the increased demand, firms have been expanding their operations through various acquisitions and mergers. In addition, government all around the world is collaborating with market players.

Report Scope of the Renewable Fuel Market

Type Insights

The biofuel segment dominated the renewable fuel market in 2022. Biofuels are fuels made from animal, plants, and waste. They are classified as renewable fuels because the feed substance used can be regenerated more quickly than traditional fossil fuels. Some of the elements that are projected to boost the market include the limited supply of fossil fuel-based resources and increased awareness of the need to reduce carbon emissions. Furthermore, the availability of various supporting regulatory regulations and financial incentives on the use of biofuels around the world is expected to boost their demand, particularly in the transportation industry.

The wind power segment is fastest growing segment over the forecast period. The wind turbine turns wind energy into mechanical energy, which is then transformed into electrical energy by the generator. The offshore and onshore wind energy can be generated. The onshore wind power is linked with land-based turbines, while offshore wind turbines are located in the ocean. The offshore wind turbines, on the other hand, are well-organized than onshore wind turbines due to the stable wind flow.

End Use Insights

The industrial segment dominated the renewable fuel market in 2022. The rising demand for clean energy is predicted to boost the number of utility projects and boost the market for renewable fuel in the industrial sector. The growing industrial projects are also driving the growth of the industrial segment.

The commercial segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The growing power demand in communication base stations and data centers, combined with increasing acceptance of renewable fuel in hotels, corporate offices, and hospitals, is likely to stimulate product demand across the commercial sector.

Key Developments

• Engie teamed with Eocycle-XANT in April 2021 to sell small wind turbines to its Belgian customers as part of its range of localized green energy systems. The former is supposed to handle customer requests and forward them to Eocycle-XANT based on needs. The latter is intended to be in charge of the turbine’s permit, turnkey installation, and maintenance. During the initial phase of their agreement, both firms plan to deploy 10 SWTs to create clean energy for farms, SMEs, and organizations with cooling systems by 2022.
• Malaysia’s Palm Oil Board said in January 2022 that it plans to execute the B20 palm oil biofuel scheme countrywide by the end of the year. The mandate to produce biodiesel with a 20% palm oil component known as B20 for the transportation sector was first put out in January 2020, but because of the pandemic, it was delayed.
• Shell PLC introduced its 25 MW Qabas solar facility in January 2021. The factory, which spans 50 acres in the Sohar Free Zone in Oman, is made up of approximately 88,000 solar modules. It helps to avoid around 25,000 tons of CO2 emissions each year.
• The burgeoning geothermal energy sector in the UK scored a major milestone in July 2021, when a proof-of-concept power station in Cornwall began producing geothermal steam. For power generation, the project is expected to be operational in 2022.
• The South Korean government announced a $43 billion transaction in 2021. As the country strives to attain carbon neutrality by 2050, it is anticipated to be the global largest offshore wind power complex. The agreement brings together 33 diverse parties, including regional governments, KEPCO, and large commercial companies like Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction and SK E&S.
