Biofuels Unlocked: Emerging Innovation, Markets and Opportunities

by Innovation Pipleine

Peak oil—the point at which global petroleum production maxes out and begins to fall—is expected to arrive in the next 10 to 30 years. Some experts argue that peak oil has already hit.

So is this the last chance for gas?

It could be. But if it is the end for petroleum, it's just the beginning for the various biofuels in the running to replace it.

The biofuels market is exploding, with both early-stage innovation and investment growing at an unprecedented rate. Innovation Pipeline's Biofuels Report will get you up to speed.

We've talked with a wide range of executives at biofuels companies and with the VCs backing them. We've listened to the bold proclamations and dug deep into the market to understand and assess the drivers and dynamics. These include shifting economics of production, technological innovations and smart companies.

This report includes complete examination and analysis of these factors to help new investors, marketers and experienced players sort out and better understand the technology and innovation that will shape the market in the years ahead.

We organized the report in various sections to help give investors, bankers, VCs and entrepreneurs intelligence about the emerging market of biofuels. Our first section is an overview that lays out the big picture of innovation and market. It provides the following analytical elements: the customer and market needs, the value creation, some market-sizing data points and the innovative early-stage companies that are setting business and technological objectives not obvious in much of today's piecemeal coverage.

But what makes this report different is that it looks at the very early drivers in the market, developments taking place within corporate and university research labs. Some may think these developments are still uncertain and that basing conclusions on them is risky. We believe there's a lot of insight to glean from the early developments and innovations that will shape the trajectory of this important market.
