Advanced biofuels planned capacity to reach 1.38 billion gallons by 2013
The Lanzatech pilot-scale advanced biofuels project in New Zealand
In Florida, based on new commercial-scale, demonstration and pilot project announcements, global advanced biofuels planned capacity will increase to 1.38 billion gallons in 2013, up from 6.71 million in 2009 capacity, according to the Biofuels Digest advanced biofuels tracking database.
The Digest’s free, downloadable Advanced Biofuels project list includes annual capacity by company for 2009-13, and includes notes on individual planned projects, locations and capacity. The table can be downloaded here.
Planned capacity is expected to increase to 199.17 million gallons in 2011, primarily from the launch of 75 Mgy Dynamic Fuels project in Louisiana, the 20 Mgy Range Fuels demonstration in georgia, and the 10 Mgy cellulosic ethanol component of the AE Biofuels project in California, which transforms the old Cilion facility. Capacity increases to 217.10 million gallons in 2011, and 785 million gallons in 2012. In total, 52 companies have pilots, demos or commercial facilities open during the 2010-13 period, as tracked in the Digest database.
Note: Top executives representing 77 percent of global planned capacity (in 2009 as well as 2012) will be attending the Digest’s Advanced Biofuels Leadership Conference, April 27-29, 2010, in Washington DC. More on the conference here.
