Truth to Power - Episode 59

On this week's episode of #TruthtoPower, IntelStor's Founder & CEO, Philip Totaro presents the generation and efficiency of the global solid #biofuels market from the IntelStor Future of Renewables #marketresearch Report.

Generation of solid biofuels has accelerated globally in the past 25   years with a 415.6% growth or 16.6% average annual growth rate. A total of 463 terawatt hours is  provided across the globe with the Asia Pacific leading as of 2025 with 45% of the generation total.

Europe now enjoys a 52.8% capacity factor for solid biofuels, while the Asia Pacific region follows at 41.8%. The Americas region also sports a   38.7% capacity factor which reflects the age and performance of the   systems which were mainly  installed up to 2018.

The Asia Pacific region has improved from ~35% capacity factor in the   year 2000 to 41.8% by 2025, but they have seen more peaks and troughs over the years. Africa & Middle East has also remained mostly flat since the year 2000 with some years showing modest fluctuations above the long-term average of 23% capacity factor.

This show examines data driven insights for the energy sector, with a focus on renewables. To subscribe to IntelStor Research Notes and get early access to our latest content as well as these Truth to Power weekly editorials, visit https://lnkd.in/e98Z9qs3
