Lignocellulosic Feedstock-based Biofuel Market Highlights 2020-2029
The lignocellulosic feedstock-based biofuel market is estimated to attain a robust CAGR over the forecast period, i.e., 2021-2029. The growth of the market can be attributed to the growth of transportation industry, as transportation industry is heavily dependent upon fossil-based fuels, such as gasoline and natural gas that causes an extensive increase in greenhouse gas emissions over the years. Therefore, the transportation industry is steadily moving towards low-carbon alternatives such as biofuel to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Biofuels can significantly enhance energy security and reduce petroleum import dependence. Presently, renewable energy accounts for around 14% of global energy demand and 73% of which comes from biofuels. Several countries, including Brazil, and China, are increasingly adopting bioethanol to curb rising air pollution concerns. New developments and governments' incentives will further boost the production and adoption of biofuels. As per the International Energy Agency (IEA), global biofuel production in 2019 was 162.8 billion litres.
The market is segmented based on type into biochemical and thermochemical out of which, the biochemical segment is anticipated to grab the largest share by the end of 2021 on account of efficient and cost-effective conversion process.
On the basis of application, the automotive segment in the lignocellulosic feedstock-based biofuel market is projected to grow with a significant CAGR over the forecast period. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the increasing consumers of fuel-based vehicles in the world, and government policies and norms that mandated countries to use biofuels.
