A new report by Acumen Research & Consulting reveals that the global biofuels market is forecast to grow from $184.21 billion in 2025 to $326.46 billion by 2035, expanding at a compound annual growth rate of 5.95%.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe growth of the biofuels market is being driven by increasing demand for low-emission transportation fuels and stringent decarbonisation policies, making ethanol, biodiesel and renewable diesel core components of the future energy mix,\u201d according to the report\u2019s author, Simone Lamb, consultant, Acumen Research & Consulting<\/p>\n
Increased investment<\/strong><\/p>\n Growth is being driven by decarbonisation policies and fuel mandates accelerating adoption of ethanol, biodiesel and renewable diesel with transportation represents the dominant end-use segment, highlighting the growing relevance of biofuels to maritime fuel supply chains and port bunkering operations.<\/p>\n For ports and terminals, increased uptake of alternative fuels is expected to require targeted investment in handling, storage and distribution infrastructure.<\/p>\n Existing bunkering facilities may need modification to accommodate higher volumes of biodiesel, renewable diesel and blended fuels, alongside systems to support regulatory compliance linked to blending mandates and emissions-reduction targets.<\/p>\n Biofuels offer ports a near-term pathway to support maritime decarbonisation, given their compatibility with existing engines and fuel delivery systems. However, large-scale deployment will depend on coordinated infrastructure development across port estates and associated logistics networks.<\/p>\n As national and regional policies continue to prioritise cleaner transport fuels, ports capable of integrating biofuels into marine bunkering and hinterland distribution are likely to play a central role in supporting the transition to alternative fuels within the maritime sector.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ports and terminals face rising demand for biofuels as global energy markets shift toward lower-carbon transportation fuels through 2035.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":6043,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,74],"tags":[40,1729,853],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-6042","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-alternative-fuels-greenport","category-insight-opinion-greenport","tag-alternative-fuels","tag-biofuels","tag-insight"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6042","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6042"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6042\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6044,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6042\/revisions\/6044"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6043"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6042"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6042"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6042"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=6042"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
