Rising mandatory blending mandates and government support drive significant biofuel production and consumption in Brazil.
The rapid growth of corn-based ethanol production positions Brazil as a global biofuel leader.
Advancements in feedstock and technology are optimizing biofuel production efficiency and sustainability in Brazil.
Expanding investments in biofuel infrastructure are enhancing Brazil's production, distribution, and global competitiveness.
Brazil’s biofuel market offers opportunities for energy independence, reducing imports, and leading climate-aligned growth.
According to a new report by UnivDatos, the Brazil Biofuel Market is expected to reach USD million in 2033 by growing at a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period 2025-2033. The Brazil biofuel sector is growing fast, with the help of positive government policies, increasing energy requirements, and climate decarbonization targets worldwide. Brazil is ranked among the largest producers of ethanol and biodiesel due to sugarcane and corn as the most significant feedstocks. The industry is also enjoying growth in investments in facilities and technological innovation that are more energy efficient and sustainable. The complexity of the Brazilian economy involves biofuels in ensuring the economy is less dependent on fossil fuels and also enhances energy security. The spiking energy demand for renewable energy both within the country and on the international scene is another competitive advantage of Brazil as a global center of clean energy solutions.

On the basis of type, the market is segregated into ethanol, biodiesel, biogas, and others. These have been occupied mostly by ethanol, which has had a large market share. The growing demand for ethanol for vehicle fuel has extensively supported its market rise. The fuel blending has also played a key part in facilitating, in turn, the increasing demand for ethanol. Additionally, positive government policies, technology in the manufacturing process of ethanol, and the increased pressure on limiting carbon emissions are boosting its uptake in various industries. The increase in consciousness of cleaner fuels, in addition to positive laws requiring ethanol mixing with gasoline, is likely to fuel growth to even greater proportions soon.
According to the report, rising mandatory blending mandates have been identified as a key driver for market growth. Some of how this impact has been felt include:
The main force of the Brazilian biofuel market is the gradual ramp-up of blending requirements regarding biofuel ethanol, as well as biodiesel. Such policies have a direct benefit on the domestic demand, lessen the dependence on fossil fuels, and improve the long-run energy security of the country. Increased production to ensure that more biofuels make their way into the transport fuel mix would give biofuels producers and investors the comfort they need to expand their production capacities, increase adoption of new feedstocks, and advance in technologies. Moreover, it makes Brazil a world champion in renewable energy, which means that the country will be able to be in line with the Brazilian energy policy regarding low-carbon emission targets in the framework of the Paris agreement.
As an example, in June 2025, the Ministry of Mines and Energy of Brazil revealed that its requirement was to raise the blend levels of ethanol in gasoline on August 1, 2025, to 30 %, as well as the biodiesel mix in diesel to 15 %. The latter is expected to end with this step alone, marking the end of Brazil's gasoline deficit import over the next 15 years.
