leading biofuel producing country in the world. Biofuels are alternative motor fuels derived from crops, cooking fats, and other biomass waste. They are considered a renewable energy source due to the relatively short time span needed to regrow plant material. However, their combustion does release carbon dioxide and they are only deemed carbon neutral if the associated crops are grown responsibly.
The United States produced 728 thousand barrels of oil equivalent biofuels per day in 2022. This was a daily average increase of over 43,000 barrels compared to the previous year. The U.S. is the Biofuel production in the United States from 2009 to 2022 (in 1,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day)
