Regional Outlook

Updated to Q2 2021

The industrial 99% and beverage 96% segments of the non-fuel ethanol market are expected to remain relatively balanced through Q2, although concerns remain surrounding French supply capabilities due to the subpar sugar beet harvest. Bioethanol fuel availability is anticipated to remain ample throughout Q2, with several grains-based producers expected to conduct planned maintenances without impacting supply. Imports arriving predominantly from South America are expected to add to overall bioethanol availability in Europe.

Bioethanol fuel buying interest will rely on the success of coronavirus vaccination rollouts across Europe. Bioethanol demand recovery is set to get a boost from the upcoming peak summer driving season and the EU Renewable Energy Directive (EU RED II) mandates. Stable demand stemming from the industrial 99% segment is expected to continue through Q2. Demand for beverage 96% is also expected to hold steady until the hospitality avenue is permitted to resume operations again.

Methodology

ICIS price assessments are based on information gathered from a wide cross-section of the market, comprising consumers, producers, traders and distributors from more than 250 reporters world-wide. Confirmed deals, verified by both buyer and seller, provide the foundation of our price assessments.

Our in-depth market knowledge drives our specialist focus, as we recognise the importance of individual market dynamics and not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Over 25 years of reporting on key chemicals markets, including Ethanol, has brought global recognition of our methodology as being unbiased, authoritative and rigorous in preserving our editorial integrity. Our global network of reporters in Houston, London, Singapore, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Mumbai, Perth and Moscow ensures unrivalled coverage of established and emerging markets.

Ethanol Methodology

There are two main types of ethanol – fermentation and synthetic. The major outlets for industrial ethanol are as a solvent and in chemical synthesis.

Price reporting

The ICIS European ethanol report assesses domestic prices for two grades of ethanol across four countries. These two grades are 96% beverage, which is typically based on molasses, and industrial 99% which can be fermented or produce from ethylene.

The report also discusses the market for 96% rectified neutral (REN) grade which is typically used in the highly seasonal screen wash sector.

The main downstream sectors are reviewed as well. These include: industrial applications, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and food grades. This provides an overall view fore both buyers and sellers.

Regulatory changes and significant developments in the fuel ethanol market are also covered. The ICIS pricing report is thus a valuable tool for both contract and spot players in the ethanol market.

Price history

ICIS collects pricing data on a wide range of chemical, energy and fertilizer products, including Ethanol. Our extensive experience in price reporting means we can offer you access to historical data dating back more than 20 years for certain commodities.

Our time series of pricing data enable you to build and model trends, to get a view of where markets might be heading. The data service includes charting functionality, allowing you to chart and download multiple data series for manipulation in your own internal models. You can also export data to Excel via the ICIS dashboard service.
