South America Biomass Pellets  COVID 19 Insights:

In 2021, the COVID-19 outbreak will have a significant impact on the biomass pellets market. As a result of the significant increase in Covid-19 cases in the south America region, as well as strict lockdowns and limitations, demand for biomass pellets has decreased in various end-use sectors. In early 2021, a series of government initiatives aimed at promoting economic development re-ignited demand. Once the crisis is resolved, industrial production and economic growth are expected to return to normal. In the future years, this will assist the biomass pellets market's huge growth.

 

South America Biomass Pellets  Market Dynamics:

Market Drive  

Considering the benefits of biomass, biomass pellets can become one of the most important sources of energy. Pellets made from biomass are sustainable, carbon-neutral, and, most significantly, abundantly available. As a result of these considerations, governments in most south America regions have implemented a variety of schemes and subsidies to encourage the use of biomass-derived energy, such as biomass pellets.

 

A growing public awareness of the importance of environmental conservation is a major driver of the trend. As a result of this shift, biofuels and other renewable energy sources such as wind and solar have seen a significant increase in demand.

 

Market Opportunity

The demand for biomass pellets is driven by an increase in demand for low-carbon fuels, government initiatives for renewable energy, easy availability of raw materials, and the rapid depletion of fossil fuels. To reduce carbon emissions from factories, biomass pellets are utilized in coal-fired boilers. Biomass pellets have several advantages, including ease of storage and transportation, low carbon emissions, and efficient, reliable, and scalable combustion. These variables all contribute to the market's growth.

 

Treetops coconut shells, palm kernel shells, and fruit bunches are all used to produce biomass pellets. They are the most essential long-term source of energy as fossil fuel sources decrease and carbon emission regulations increase. To reduce carbon emissions from factories, biomass pellets are utilized in coal-fired boilers. Biomass pellets have several advantages, including ease of storage and transportation, low carbon emissions, and efficient, reliable, and scalable combustion. These pellets are getting a lot of traction among end-users who want to reduce carbon emissions while also improving their financial situation.

 

Brazil is a major player in the wood pellet sector. Even though sugarcane bagasse provides the majority of its energy, the potential for producing wood pellets from manufacturing companies and forests has not been entirely out. As a result, the production of wood pellets is expected to increase in the future. There is also legislation requiring farmers to manage their waste, which is a huge boost to the country's future wood pellet production.

 

Chile’s Long-term wood pellet production has a big potential in this country. Chile's future potential for wood pellet production is highly promising, with over 40 million cubic meters of industrial wood annually. Because a lot of firewood is used for heating in the winter, wood pellet burners are needed to reduce the dependency on fuel. The country's major drawback is that its products have a small domestic market; as a result, the main motive for growing production levels is to export to Asian markets and beyond.

 

Market Restraints

Biomass pellets made from wood or sawdust are the most popular among industrialists in the region. Wood is in high demand, yet the availability of good quality wood is debatable. To meet their needs, several regions depend heavily on wood imports. This raises the cost of the wood and sawdust available to wood pellet makers. As a result, the cost of producing wood pellets is comparable. As a result, a shortage of wood acts as a significant restraint on the growth of the biomass pellets market, as it limits the volume of wood pellets produced and raises the end product's cost

 

South America Biomass Pellets Market Segment Analysis:

By Source,

Agriculture contributes significantly to GDP in the South American region, including Argentina, Brazil, and others. In these areas, the surplus availability of agricultural residue is extremely high, which is subsequently used to make biomass pellets

 

 

By End Use,

 

One of the most common uses for biomass pellets is industrial heating. Biomass pellets can be used in a variety of industries, including pharma, leather, brick manufacture, thermal plants, and tire manufacturing because they can effectively replace coal in boilers. Governments are placing stricter laws and limitations on manufacturing and industrial units to control carbon emissions in order to satisfy the region's specific sustainable development goals. Manufacturers are using sustainable and environmentally friendly energy sources like biomass pellets to comply with these criteria. As a result, one of the primary drivers boosting biomass pellet demand is government pressure to reduce carbon emissions from sectors.
