      Competitive Landscape Brief

      Demand is driven by federal legislation and regulations that establish a government-mandated market for biofuels. The profitability of biofuel production facilities depends on prices of gasoline and diesel, which fluctuate based on world petroleum demand and domestic refinery utilization. Economies of scale in ethanol production are limited due to the transportation costs associated with gathering feedstocks (corn and other biomasses) and transporting the ethanol to blending sites. As a result, large companies operate multiple production facilities. Small companies can compete effectively by developing business relations with distributors and by delivering consistently. Ethanol imports account for about 3 percent of the US market and come mainly from Brazil, the second largest producer of ethanol after the US. Ethanol exports, mainly to Canada and the Netherlands, account for about 2 percent of US production.The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per employee in ethanol production facilities is about $2 million per year. Biofuels is a young industry that has grown rapidly. New entrants join the field constantly and new technology breakthroughs are frequent. Federal and state government subsidies and loan guarantees keep barriers to entry relatively low.
