Abstract
Report Description
The limited availability of petrol and its surging prices have brought about
the development of alternative fuels such as biodiesel, bioethanol, and
biogas. The major advantages of biodiesel are that it enhances engine life,
and unlike petroleum, it does not pollute the environment.
The biodiesel market is slated for a huge growth in the next few years not
only because of the growing environmental concerns, but also because of the
surging prices for non-renewable sources of energy, especially petroleum.
Governments across the globe are encouraging the use of biodiesel; and many
countries have initiated blending of conventional diesel with a percentage of
biodiesel.
This report analyzes the markets for the major feedstock currently used for
biodiesel production, such as vegetable oils, waste oils, and animal fats; as
well as potential feedstock such as algae, jatropha, and sunflower oil. The
report includes an in-depth analysis of transesterification, the technology to
convert oils to biodiesel, and a comparative analysis between conventional
petrol diesel and biodiesel on parameters such as pricing, feedstock
availability, and the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The report extensively analyzes the automotive, aerospace, railways, and
heating applications of biodiesel. Each of the major and micro biodiesel
markets include detailed analysis of the factors influencing the market,
trends and forecasts, competitive landscape, and in-depth geographic analysis
of the biodiesel markets in the Americas, Europe, Asia and Rest of the World.
The report identifies factors that drive or inhibit market growth in order to
support the market trends and forecasts made herein for each sub-segment. More
than 38 company profiles are provided for a deeper insight into the
competitive landscape. The market tables are categorized as per geographies
and feedstocks.
The intended audience of this report includes:
- Biodiesel producers
- Feedstock suppliers
- Automotive manufacturers
- Aerospace companies and organizations
- Government authorities
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Calculation of the biodiesel market size
- Estimated through price ($) per gallon (pump price) and production
capacity in the four geographies.
- Verified the production capacity through primaries with CEO/ VP/ Director
of Marketing of the key players.
- Estimated the pricing trends (2007-2009) and forecasts (2009-2014) by
interviewing manufacturers about the percent change in prices from 2007 to
2009 and expected percent price changes from 2009 to 2014.
