Milica Folić, director for clean fuels and chemicals at Topsoe, takes a closer look at the biofuels market, which, at its core, is a compliance-driven landscape. Regulations, whether in the form of greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets, blending mandates or tax incentives, are the primary force shaping both demand and supply.
While the specifics vary by region and fuel... [Read More]

Global biofuel demand is expected to surge, with the IEA projecting a 23% increase by 2028.
Renewable diesel and ethanol are expected to account for two-thirds of this growth with new regulations such as FuelEU stimulating uptake.
However, the domestic outlook for US ethanol appears more uncertain due to the acceleration of electric vehicle (EV) adoption — despite... [Read More]

Ronald Backers, advisor business intelligence, Port of Rotterdam, looks back at how the strategic port has been dealing with biofuels’ logistics over the past 12 months.
Two years ago I paraphrased the Beatles ‘It was 20 years ago today’, referring to the birth of Directive 2003/30/EC and the push for biofuels blending in the European Union in 2003.
Today, I... [Read More]

Manshu Agarwal, CEO, HutanBio, has outlined what he sees are the critical factors that will drive growth in the biofuels sector over the coming year.
My prediction for the year ahead is that it will not be a breakout year for biofuel volumes, but more a period of strategic sorting in which resilience matters more than ambition and where costs and hard constraints finally... [Read More]

The search for sustainable and scalable biofuel feedstocks has intensified. Recognising this opportunity, the potential of the Pongamia tree, a subtropical species native to countries such as India and Australia, has emerged as a highly promising and sustainable new feedstock for the production of advanced biofuels.
The tree is a carbon-sequestering, perennial crop well... [Read More]

Across North America, biodiesel mandates have become a key tool for governments seeking to cut greenhouse gas emissions, enhance energy security, and support rural economies.
These rules require a minimum share of biodiesel or renewable diesel to be blended into conventional diesel supplies, creating a guaranteed market for low-carbon fuels.
Yet, despite their apparent... [Read More]

Malaysia Airlines is pushing hard to make sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) a regular part of its operations and not just a one-off PR flight.
The carrier has moved from trial runs to formal partnerships, corporate offerings and involvement with national policy work, signalling it sees SAF as central to cutting its carbon footprint rather than a symbolic gesture.
Demo... [Read More]

In the race toward a sustainable energy future, renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) are emerging as pivotal biofuels.
These fuels, derived from hydrogenated oils and fats, known as HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) and HEFA (Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids), offer a cleaner alternative to traditional fossil fuels.
However, with the potential of... [Read More]

Biofuels are emerging as one of the most promising green alternatives to conventional marine fuels. Their production from renewable feedstocks significantly reduces lifecycle greenhouse-gas emissions compared with fossil fuel alternatives, and many biofuels are “drop-in” compatible.
Stringent regulations like the European Union’s FuelEU Maritime directive are... [Read More]
