Alternative Fuels Market, Global, 2024–2030


Oil and Gas Companies are Driving Transformational Growth by Developing Low Emission Fuels to Address Industrial Sector Decarbonization

Alternative fuels will play a major role toward achieving global decarbonization pathways, and the market is poised for a period of extremely strong growth. This detailed study analyzes three main segments: biofuels, biogas, and eFuels. The industry sometimes refers to eFuels as synthetic fuels and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) as bio-jet fuel. Alternative fuels use non-petroleum feedstocks, such as tallow oil, corn, soyabean oil, rapeseed oil, used cooking oil (UCO), fatty acid methyl esters, hydroprocessed esters and fatty acids (HEFAs), and hydrotreated vegetable oils (HVOs) in the case of biofuels; organic waste, animal waste, and wood in the case of biogas; and water, electricity, and biogenic or direct air capture CO2 in the case of eFuels. These fuels are substitutes for more carbon-intensive energy sources, such as diesel, gasoline, and jet fuel in the transportation sector, contributing to the broader decarbonization and net-zero targets of COP 28.

This analysis of the global alternative fuels market covers both production and end market revenues. The study looks at all main trends and innovations occurring worldwide, as well as evaluates the strategies of leading suppliers. The research calculates the market value for each segment using the production cost of each subsegment, applying appropriate currency conversions and US dollar normalization where necessary. The regions covered are Europe, Asia-Pacific (APAC), the Americas, and the rest of world (RoW).

This study provides a detailed analysis of the industry’s growth trajectory, competitive landscape, and most dynamic growth opportunities from 2023 to 2030.
