India's ambitious push towards ethanol blending has seen a significant shift, with maize emerging as a central feedstock. The government's E20 program, aiming for a 20% ethanol blend in petrol by 2025, has accelerated this transformation.

Brazil’s long-standing biofuel industry has been built around sugar-cane ethanol via the Proálcool programme. Now, corn-based ethanol is rapidly growing, and analysts project that by around 2034, corn ethanol production capacity in Brazil could reach ≈ 24.7 billion litres, nearly matching sugar-cane ethanol’s projected ~25 billion litres.

ethanol production in the United States has reached a new record high, reflecting strong domestic demand for biofuels. Analysts attribute the rise to steady gasoline consumption, improved refinery output, and favorable government policies supporting renewable fuels.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark – Novonesis has reported robust sales momentum, largely driven by its bioenergy business including ethanol and biodiesel solutions, underscoring the company’s expanding footprint in renewable fuel markets.
