Sustainable Biofuels & E-Fuels Market Report 2026-2036 Algae Biofuels, Green Ammonia, And Carbon Capture Highlight Next Wave Of Innovation
Dublin, Aug. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Sustainable Biofuels & E-Fuels Market 2026-2036" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global sustainable biofuels and e-fuels market represents one of the most rapidly expanding sectors in the energy transition landscape, driven by urgent decarbonization imperatives and ambitious net-zero commitments worldwide. The traditional biofuels segment continues to dominate the sustainable fuels landscape. Advanced biofuels are experiencing particularly strong growth, with renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) leading the charge. E-fuels represent the fastest-growing segment within sustainable fuels, albeit from a smaller base.
Several critical factors are propelling market growth. Environmental regulations and carbon reduction mandates are primary drivers, with over 80 countries implementing liquid biofuel policies. Policy support remains crucial, with initiatives like the EU's Renewable Energy Directive, the US Inflation Reduction Act providing USD 9.4 billion in biofuel support to 2031, and various SAF mandates driving adoption. Corporate sustainability commitments from airlines, shipping companies, and automotive manufacturers are creating substantial demand for sustainable fuel alternatives. The sector is witnessing rapid technological advancement across multiple production pathways. For biofuels, this includes second-generation technologies like pyrolysis, gasification, hydrothermal liquefaction, and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, alongside innovative feedstock utilization from waste materials and algae. E-fuel production is advancing through improvements in electrolyzers, carbon capture technologies, and power-to-liquid synthesis processes.
Despite impressive growth, significant scaling is required to meet climate targets. While renewable fuel uptake would need to nearly double by 2030 to be on track with a net zero trajectory, it is set to expand only near 20% under existing market conditions. This gap presents both challenges and opportunities, suggesting the market's potential extends far beyond current projections as supportive policies, technology costs, and infrastructure development accelerate the transition to sustainable transportation fuels.
