Global Alternative Fuels Database & Market Intelligence
Find High-Value Projects in a Rapidly Shifting Energy Landscape
Access the leading global database for ethanol, biodiesel, renewable diesel, SAF, and biogas projects, built for enterprise teams who need trusted data to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving energy market.
Alternative fuels are entering a defining decade. Global demand for low-carbon fuels is accelerating, but the path forward is shaped by shifting incentives, feedstock constraints and high technology costs. In North America, the recently updated 45Z tax incentive continues to support project economics, whilst tightening biomass feedstock supply poses challenges to some renewable diesel and Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) project timelines. Overall, the global capital expenditure outlook for alternative transportation fuels indicates a significant, but uneven, increase in investment, heavily influenced by government policy and the maturity of different fuel technologies.

VP of North America Chemical ProcessingWhat’s Fueling the Next Wave of Alternative Fuels?
From shifting tax credits to global SAF momentum, supply chain bottlenecks, and waste-to-fuel innovation, discover the trends shaping tomorrow’s bioenergy landscape.
Biofuels Face Shifting Incentives
New guidance on 45Z tax credits is reshaping the economics of low-carbon fuels, prompting developers to rework project timelines and technology strategies.
Feedstock Access Becomes a Bottleneck
Limited supply of used cooking oil, tallow, and other key inputs is slowing progress, especially in renewable diesel and SAF development across North America.
SAF Investments Gain Global Momentum
Sustainable aviation fuel projects are expanding across Europe, Asia, and the U.S., fueled by growing airline demand and international emissions mandates.
Waste-to-Fuel Projects Scale Up
Biogas, RNG, and waste conversion investments are accelerating, driven by landfill diversion policies, carbon goals, and emerging regional incentives.
