Report: algae biofuels technologies market at $1.6B in 2015

MarketResearch.com has announced the addition of the new report “SBI Bulletin: Algae Biofuels Technologies - Global Market and Product Trends 2010-2015,” to its collection of market reports.

The primary factors for algae biofuels technology market growth include trends in the prices and commodity markets for fossil fuels, regulatory support and incentives available to the algae biofuels industry for industry growth, growing investment in the algae biofuels industry, and contemporary industry activity focused around reducing the operational and capital costs associated with algae biofuels production. The potential of algae biofuels technology markets is greatly determined by ongoing trends in technology pricing and industry trends. These include algae biofuels industry development, trends in investment into the algae biofuels industry, technology research and development, project financing trends, biofuels production facility construction rates, biofuels crop demand, and petroleum demand.

Algae biofuels companies must gauge the prospects of their technology under development or value of their algae biofuels projects through market and product trends. This SBI Bulletin outlines pertinent trends affecting the real and prospective value of algae biofuels (along with the associated technologies) compared to alternative biofuels and petroleum.

The primary factors that affect the size and growth of algae biofuels technology markets can be categorized as industry factors relating to investment, technological advancement and business development or market factors that spur demand for algae biofuels. These have been buoyed by various factors including public and private R&D, industry investment from the public sector and other industries, fossil fuel prices, and general regulatory support for biofuels. These factors combine to indicate a total global market for algae biofuels technologies with double-digit growth potential over the short-term future for a projected annual average growth of 43.1 percent that will lead the market volume from $271 million in 2010 to $1,627 million ($1.6 billion) in 2015.

博主快评：市场是有的，就是看技术上能否突破，实现藻类燃料的低成本，毫无疑问，在未来3-5年，全球范围的这个领域，要么就是一将功成万骨枯，能做成的就是可能的有限几家公司巨头和实验室，然后其他的，乌泱泱地全死掉；要么还是现在这样群魔乱舞，甚至靠忽悠也能拿到钱，尽管会越来越难。

而在国内，这方面都应该还能热火一阵子，不管是忽悠还是实干。再过几年，就不好说了。
