DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Biofuel Industry in the United States 2018" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The report helps assess the feasibility of production of biofuels and the potential of biofuels in the US. Strategies undertaken by the US industry to make biofuels viable enough to deploy them to the pump are discussed in great details in the report. We also analyze several of the leading biofuel industry players in this in-depth in the report.

In 2017, the new US Renewable Fuels Standard came into effect as part of the revised Energy Bill. The revised bill calls for increasing the production of biofuels in the US to 36 billion gallons yearly by 2022. The focus will be on ethanol and biodiesel, with advanced biofuels accounting for 21 billion gallons. 16 billion gallons is also expected to come from cellulosic biofuels.

US production of biodiesel in the month of January 2018 stood at 124 million gallons. The production of ethanol averaged 1.02 million barrels per day in the first six months of 2017. Experts are questioning how realistic the new biofuel targets are. The biggest challenge facing the US biofuel industry at present is to expand the biofuel market beyond the farm states.
