Bioenergy Breakthrough: From Waste to Fuel

Agricultural residue, municipal waste and used cooking oil can be converted into ethanol, biogas and sustainable aviation fuel. The opportunity spans transport, industry and waste management, though commercial viability varies by technology and feedstock. Projects need reliable feedstock supply, proven technology and long-term offtake. Collection and logistics often matter as much as the production plant itself, and scaling depends as much on finance and common standards as on the technology. The discussion will focus on technology readiness across pathways, the finance and offtake structures that make projects bankable, and the standardisation of feedstock, fuel specifications and certification needed to scale.
