IEA: India Bioenergy Market Report | 2026

Abstract

As demand for renewable energy grows in India, liquid and gaseous biofuels are expected to be one of the fastest-growing markets, driven by significant feedstock potential and supportive policies. These fuels can provide low-emission energy in heat, electricity and transport. They can also be produced domestically reducing reliance on imported fossil fuels, improve energy security, and create economic development and employment opportunities.

This report examines the current supply and demand of liquid and gaseous biofuels in India and their forecasted growth to 2030. It provides a detailed assessment of existing policy and regulatory frameworks, feedstocks, production capacity, and identifies key considerations that may influence future development. It also outlines a set of policy priorities, drawing on international best practices, that India could consider to accelerate the deployment of liquid and gaseous biofuels in India.
