Asia
Ethanol (Beverage)
Updated to Q3 2020
Supply will depend on margins of both ethanol and sugar. Supply may further decline if more producers change to produce sugar, on more attractive margins. But if margins of beverage ethanol recover, supply may increase accordingly.
Demand is expected to remain constant as there is no significant improvement in the pandemic. Downstream users will continue to search for affordable b-grade ethanol for their production.
Ethanol (Fuel)
Updated to Q3 2020
Supply may increase with the further easing of lockdown measures and expectations of a market recovery after the pandemic. Higher oil markets will be another driver for producers to improve supply.
Demand may stay muted in Asia, as the pandemic will remain an issue for a while and travel restrictions will not be totally removed. It may take longer for demand to recover.
We offer the following regional Ethanol analysis and news coverage to keep you informed of factors and developments affecting prices in the Asia Ethanol marketplace.
