Bioethanol Market Share

ID: MRFR//5710-CR | 185 Pages | Author: Chitranshi Jaiswal| January 2019

Introduction: Navigating the Competitive Landscape of Bioethanol

Bioethanol is going through a process of change, which is due to the rapid spread of technology, the change in the regulatory framework, and the demand for sustainable energy solutions from consumers. These factors are driving the competition between the key players, such as the car manufacturers, the operators of the charging stations, and the new players, which are mainly the original equipment manufacturers, the operators of the charging stations, and the new players, to use the latest technology, such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and green infrastructure. The car manufacturers are focused on increasing production efficiency and reducing the carbon footprint. The IT service providers are focusing on developing advanced data management systems to optimize the supply chain. The new players, especially the operators of charging stations, are mainly focused on deploying the latest automation and biometric solutions. The new players are focusing on using these solutions to create new opportunities for differentiation. Strategic development is increasingly oriented towards local production and distribution models, especially in North America and Europe, to take advantage of the growing demand for bioethanol as a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels in the coming years.

Emerging Players & Regional Champions

  • Green Plains Inc. (US): This company has specialized in a new method of producing ethanol and has recently signed a contract with a major oil company to supply a blending percentage of ethanol. The new fermentation processes are competing with the established suppliers and are yielding higher yields.
  • Brazil - Razen: A leading company in the sugarcane bio-ethanol industry, Razen has expanded its production capacity and entered into a partnership with automobile companies to promote the use of flex-fuel vehicles. The goal is to offer a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, in competition with existing petroleum products.
  • Novozymes (Denmark): Novozymes is a Danish company which produces enzymes for the manufacture of bioethanol. These enzymes are used to improve the fermentation process. Recent deals with several European bioethanol producers have established Novozymes as a technology partner and a competitor to traditional enzyme suppliers.
  • The Poet LLC (USA) is a well-known bio-ethanol producer with large-scale production capacity. Poet has recently launched a new initiative to convert agricultural waste into bio-ethanol, thereby complementing existing production methods and challenging conventional feedstocks.
  • ABENGOA BIOENERGY (Spain): a company developing second-generation biofuels from non-food crops. In recent projects in Europe and North America, it has demonstrated its leadership in the development of sustainable biofuels, and is now a serious rival to producers of first-generation bioethanol.

Regional Trends: In 2024, the bioethanol market is growing rapidly in some regions, especially in North America and Brazil, mainly due to government subsidies and the reluctance to switch to other energy sources. The technological focus is on advanced fermentation and the use of non-food feedstocks, which are gaining in importance as consumers and governments become more concerned about the issue of sustainability.

Collaborations & M&A Movements

  • Green Biofuels and BioEnergy Corp entered a partnership to develop advanced bioethanol production technologies aimed at reducing carbon emissions and enhancing sustainability in response to increasing regulatory pressures.
  • Renewable Energy Group (REG) acquired Biofuels Innovations in early 2024 to expand its bioethanol production capacity and strengthen its position in the North American market amidst rising demand for renewable fuels.
  • Cargill and Novozymes announced a collaboration to optimize enzyme solutions for bioethanol production, aiming to improve efficiency and reduce costs in light of competitive pricing pressures in the biofuels sector.
