Summary:

According to BCC Research, the global biofuel market is expected to grow in the forecasted period. The global biofuel market will increase from $REDACTED billion in 2023 to $REDACTED billion in 2028, representing a REDACTED% CAGR. North America accounted for REDACTED% of all market revenue in 2022, followed by South America's REDACTED% and Europe's REDACTED% market share. Based on the type of biofuels, ethanol constituted REDACTED% of the market share in 2022.

In terms of volume, 2022 saw approximately a REDACTED% increase in biofuel consumption compared to 2021. The U.S. and EU biofuel policies mainly derived the market. The ethanol market increased by REDACTED%, while the biodiesel increased by REDACTED% for the same period. However, biodiesel is expected to grow at a higher CAGR than the ethanol market in the forecast period. This is because the demand for renewable diesel is increasing as companies focus on producing low-carbon intensity fuels. Renewable diesel is made from waste and residue, unlike conventional biodiesel and ethanol from food-based feedstock.
