越来越多地使用替代燃料是全球顶级和新兴生物燃料市场的一个关键因素。 原材料供应链波动已成为限制全球市场增长的关键因素。
全球越来越多地使用替代燃料
由于石油和天然气等主要能源的价格波动,世界各国都面临着能源危机。 石油和天然气是用于运输的主要燃料。 油价因各种经济和地缘政治事件而波动。 印度等新兴经济体是世界石油和天然气的主要进口国。 原油价格的波动增加了每个国家的燃料进口成本。 高原油价格可能会耗尽外汇储备并引发经济危机。
因此,各国正在减少石油和天然气进口,并促进使用替代燃料来稳定其财政状况。 近年来,电动汽车的普及程度可圈可点,但并不被认为是替代传统汽车的理想燃料。 生物燃料越来越受欢迎,因为它们无需修改即可用于传统车辆。 各国正在通过提高乙醇与汽油的混合比例来促进□□生物燃料的使用。
例如,2022年10月,印度石油天然气部在新闻发布会上宣布,将在年底前向消费者提供20%的乙醇混合汽油。 欧盟 (EU) 采用 EN15376 标准,强制要求在汽油中混合 5% 的乙醇。 从 2021 年开始,一些欧洲国家正在开展试点计划,为消费者提供 10% 的乙醇混合汽油燃料。 越来越多地使用替代燃料是世界顶级和新兴生物燃料市场增长的关键因素。
原材料供应链波动
生物燃料主要由天然植物原料製成,例如玉米、甘蔗、大豆、植物油、纤维素、草和生物质。 生物燃料生产供应链特别容易受到衝击,因为农作物是原材料的主要来源。 作物产量低、作物病害和极端天气事件等多种因素都会影响产量,从而导致原料材料减少,进而减少生物燃料产量。
在印度等发展中国家,农业机械化程度不高,劳动力短缺对作物产量影响较大。 产量下降总是导致价格上涨。 波动的产量使生物燃料製造商难以增加产量以满足不断增长的需求。 此外,由于各种因素,还有一定量的农作物在储运过程中发生损失。 原材料供应链的波动已成为全球市场增长的主要挑战。
COVID-19 影响分析
由于 COVID-19 大流行,世界顶级和新兴生物燃料市场受到了重大影响。 政府实施了严格的封锁和旅行限制,以阻止 COVID-19 病例的增加。 因此,个人和企业大幅减少了不必要的旅行,交通部门的燃料使用量在 2020 年大幅下降。
在大流行的早期阶段,世界上许多国家的燃料需求急剧下降。 生物燃料的主要用途是在运输部门,用作汽油添加剂。 燃料需求下降导致生物燃料生产商出现产能过剩危机。
自 2021 年年中以来,疫苗接种的大流行限制已经解除,全球需求已经恢復。 然而,即使在大流行之后,全球市场仍在遭受大流行的余波。 由于大流行的影响,劳动力短缺持续存在,新兴国家在收穫原材料作物方面遇到困难。 预计各种全球供应链的持续复杂性将加剧这一问题。
疫情不会损害世界顶级和新兴生物燃料市场的长期增长前景,因为各国政府可能会在未来几年扩大对替代燃料的采用。 预计未来几年对顶级和新兴生物燃料的需求将显着增长。
Top & Emerging Biofuels Market size was worth US$ XX million in 2021 and is estimated to reach US$ XX million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period (2022-2029).
Biofuels are liquid or gaseous fuels primarily used for transportation applications and are produced from biomass within a short period. Bioethanols and biodiesels are the two main types of biofuels. Bioethanol is an alcohol produced through the fermentation of sugars in corn and sugarcane. Biodiesel is produced through the transesterification of vegetable and animal oils and fats. Top and emerging biofuels are mainly produced using second and third-generation feedstock materials such as grass and waste vegetable oils.
The rising usage of alternative fuels mainly drives the global top and emerging biofuel market. The supply chain volatilities in feedstock material are a key factor in limiting the growth of the global market.
Countries globally face an energy crisis due to the volatile prices of major energy sources such as petroleum and natural gas. Oil and gas are the primary fuels used in transportation. The price of oil fluctuates according to various economic and geopolitical events. Emerging countries, such as India, are major global oil and gas importers. The fluctuation in oil prices increases the fuel import bill for countries. Sustained high oil prices can create an economic crisis due to the depletion of foreign currency reserves.
Therefore, countries are promoting the usage of alternative fuels to reduce oil and gas imports and ensure fiscal stability. Although the usage of electric vehicles has increased tremendously in recent years, it is not considered an ideal substitute for conventional vehicles. Biofuels have gained popularity since they can be used in conventional vehicles without needing modification. Countries are promoting biofuel usage by increasing the blending of ethanol with petrol.
For instance, in October 2022, the Petroleum and Natural Gas Ministry of India announced during a press conference that 20% ethanol-blended petrol would be available to consumers by the year-end. The adoption of EN 15376 standards in the European Union (EU) has led to a mandatory blending of 5% ethanol in gasoline. Starting in 2021, many European countries are piloting programs to deliver 10% ethanol blended gasoline fuels to consumers. The growing usage of alternative fuels is a major driver for the growth of the global top and emerging biofuels market.
Biofuels are mainly manufactured from natural plant-based feedstock materials such as corn, sugarcane, soybean, vegetable oils, cellulose, grass and biomass. Since crops are the main source of feedstock materials, the biofuel production supply chain is uniquely vulnerable to shocks. Various factors such as low crop yields, crop diseases and extreme weather events can affect harvest, leading to a decrease in feedstock material and, subsequently, biofuel production.
In developing countries such as India, where there is low mechanization of agricultural processes, labor shortages can have a major impact on crop yields. A drop in harvest invariably leads to higher prices. The volatility in harvest makes it difficult for biofuel manufacturers to increase output to cater to growing demand. Furthermore, a certain amount of crop is lost during storage and transportation due to various factors. The supply chain volatilities in feedstock materials are key challenges to the growth of the global market.
The global top and emerging biofuels market experienced a major impact due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Governments imposed strict lockdowns and movement restrictions to stem the rising COVID-19 cases. Therefore, fuel usage by the transportation sector witnessed steep declines in 2020 as individuals and businesses drastically cut down on non-essential travel.
The initial phase of the pandemic led to a sharp decrease in demand for fuel across many countries globally. The primary application of biofuels is within the transportation sector for usage as a gasoline additive. The decline in fuel demand led to a crisis for biofuel manufacturers since they were saddled with excess production capacity.
Global demand witnessed some recovery starting from mid-2021 onwards, as vaccination drives led to the lifting of pandemic restrictions. Even in the post-pandemic period, the global market still faces challenges from the aftereffects of the pandemic. A persistent labor shortage caused during the pandemic has hampered the harvest of crops used as feedstock material in emerging countries. Various ongoing global supply chain complications are expected to exacerbate this problem further.
The pandemic will not mar the long-term growth prospects of the global top and emerging biofuels market since governments will likely increase their uptake of alternative fuels in the coming years. The demand for top and emerging biofuels is expected to grow significantly during the coming years.
The global top and emerging biofuels market is segmented into type, product, composition and region. The global top and emerging biofuels market by product is further segmented into ethanol and biodiesel. Ethanol is leading within this segmentation since it is the most widely used biofuel. Ethanol or ethyl alcohol, is a compound denoted by the chemical formula C2H6O.
Ethanol is a flammable, volatile, colorless liquid with a characteristic pungent odor. It is the main active ingredient in various types of alcoholic beverages. Different methods are used for ethanol production depending upon the application. The major modern application for ethanol is as a biofuel additive in gasoline. Various countries have stepped up the usage of biofuels to curb emissions and reduce petroleum imports.
North America is an industrialized, high-income region with a population leading high quality of life. The region generates a significant chunk of global energy demand. North America has a well-developed agricultural industry and is a leading producer of cash crops such as rye, corn, barley, wheat and sugarcane. Major conglomerates mainly carry out agricultural activities in North America with thousands of hectares of land. All major cash crops produced in North America can be used as ethanol production feedstock.
The major application of ethanol in North America for usage as an alternative fuel. Almost all types of gasoline sold in U.S. contains some amount of blended ethanol. E10, E15 and E85 are the common types of ethanol-blended gasoline grades available in U.S. The U.S. government has passed several acts, such as the renewable fuel standards act (RFS), to encourage the adoption of alternative biofuels.
Various U.S. state governments have also rolled out tax credits for businesses and consumers utilizing ethanol-blended gasoline. According to data from the U.S. energy information administration (EIA), nearly 13.9 billion gallons of ethanol fuel were consumed in U.S. in 2021. Due to a well-developed biotechnology industry, many companies are actively involved in researching and developing new sources of feedstock material for biofuel production.
