❗ REMINDER 👉 Free #IEABioenergy Webinar on 12 November. Scaling up advanced #biofuels production is a global challenge in terms of environmental, social, and economic sustainability, which can benefit from international collaboration and knowledge exchange. This Task 39 (Biofuels to Decarbonize Transport) webinar gives an overview on the status of demonstration plants and commercialization progress of advanced biofuels, introduces the BioTheRoS EU Project project and highlights two thermochemical conversion routes for the production of #SAF or maritime fuels. Task 39 is monitoring and tracking demonstration plants and commercialization progress of advanced biofuels in the member countries and worldwide for several years now. The status of facilities for the production of advanced liquid and gaseous biofuels for transport are mapped and developments are highlighted. Through the use of thermochemical conversion technologies, the BioTheRoS EU Project aims to develop a comprehensive approach that will accelerate the production of sustainable biofuels. Two thermochemical biofuel production technologies form the core value chains of the BioTheRoS EU Project: pyrolysis and gasification. Register 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dV3Ji_nh

🚨 Germany 2025: New Bio Ticket Rules could be a Boost for Biofuels 🚨 With the potential change in 2025 that could restrict the transfer of current bio tickets under the updated ETS2, Germany’s industries may need to shift strategies for immediate CO₂ reductions. This could result in increased reliance on high-impact biofuels, like HVO 100 (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil). HVO offers fast and cost-effective CO₂ reductions, making it an even more attractive alternative if bio tickets are unavailable. HVO is already in use across various sectors, offering a sustainable way to significantly lower emissions without extensive operational changes. Supporting biofuels like HVO could accelerate Germany’s path toward emissions targets, providing an easy adaptable, low-cost solution that aligns with long-term climate goals.

Paola Rodriguez-Masiu, Head of Research and Trade Analytics, and Thomas Hoogsteden, biofuels trader at STX Group, recently discussed the growing interest in sustainable fuels in the marine market in a Bunkerspot article. With uncertainties around new regulations, there's a noticeable trend of bundling bunker supplies with EUAs, and bunker firms are increasingly eager to offer related services. While transitioning from inexpensive to more sustainable fuels poses a challenge, it's crucial for companies to start preparing for upcoming changes.

🌏 At the BBEST-IEA Bioenergy conference in São Paulo, IEA Bioenergy Task 39 (Biofuels to Decarbonize Transport) launched the report "Biofuels in emerging markets of Africa and Asia – An overview of costs and greenhouse gas savings" assessing the greenhouse gas (GHG) savings, fuel costs, and land demands for biofuels in China, Ethiopia, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, South Africa, and Thailand. 💡 Key Findings: Biofuels in Africa and Asia offer significant GHG reductions, with potential decreases of up to 78% for biodiesel and 87% for ethanol, particularly in South Africa, where sugarcane ethanol benefits from the high carbon intensity of the country’s synthetic fossil fuels. To prevent negative environmental impacts, countries are advised to enforce policies against biofuel crop expansion into high-carbon areas. Flex-fuel technologies may ease the transition to biofuels where electrification is challenging, and strategic partnerships for land use could support production in land-scarce regions.
