Key Challenges to Widespread algae based biofuels commercialization

Algae-Based Biofuels

Algae-Based Biofuels

Demand Drivers, Policy Issues, Emerging Technologies, Key Industry Players, and Global Market Forecasts

In the face of petroleum scarcity, increasing oil prices, market volatility, and climate change, a number of national governments are enacting strong mandates to develop domestic biofuels markets. Meanwhile, as concerns over the sustainability of first generation biofuels intensify, innovative startup companies, strategic partnerships led by large multinationals, and university-led research consortiums are spearheading efforts to develop low-cost and replicable production pathways for advanced biofuels derived from renewable biomass like algae. With no alternative to liquid fuel, the commercial aviation sector and U.S. military are looking to renewable fuel sources such as algae-based biofuels to reduce expenses and mitigate their acute vulnerability to petroleum supply chains.

Yielding 2 to 20 times more oil per acre than leading oilseed crops, algae's productivity and scalability are its greatest advantages. On paper, algae could displace worldwide petroleum use altogether, however, the industry has yet to produce a drop of oil for commercial production. Although the algae-based biofuels market will grow rapidly once key cost hurdles are overcome, widespread scale-up will be hampered by a number of difficult challenges, including access to nutrients, water, and private capital. With the cost of production still a key obstacle to widespread production, many companies are refocusing production efforts on low-volume, high-value co-products to develop revenue streams over the next decade.
