The Philippines is a sugar-producing country, and sugarcane is grown mainly in the islands of Negros, Luzon, Panay and Mindanao. Despite growing demand for sugar, there are still an estimated 90,750 hectares (224,000 acres) of sugarcane available that can be used for ethanol production, and high-yielding varieties of sugarcane are available.
This volume was 96% of the total petroleum supply, reflecting the country's tremendous dependence on imported fossil fuel. The Philippines’ total indigenous local energy production (including coal, oil, natural gas, geothermal, hydropower, biomass, solar and wind) was 139.72 MMBFOE, which in 2004 translated to energy self-sufficiency level of ...

The Philippines Biofuel Act of 2006, RA 9376 mandates an increase of the minimum 5% bioethanol blend (E5) in gasoline to 10% ethanol blend (E10). In 2011, 600 million liters of gasoline was consumed by car owners in the Philippines, if the 10% bioethanol blend would be followed, this would be equivalent to 1 million metric tons of sugar.
The efficiency of the bioethanol compared with standard gasoline; The amount of carbon dioxide produced at the tail pipe. The benefits due to the production of useful bi-products, such as cattle feed or electricity. The graph on the right shows figures calculated by the UK government for the purposes of the Renewable transport fuel obligation. [78]
At lower quantities of production, Wang finds it appropriate to credit corn ethanol based on the input energy requirement of the feed product or good that the ethanol by-product displaces. [8] In 2004, a USDA report found that co-products accounting made the difference between energy ratios of 1.06 and 1.67.

For comparison, the total U.S. production capacity for biodiesel reached 2,240 million US gallons per year (8.5 × 10 ^ 6 m 3 /a) in 2007, although poor market conditions held 2007 production to about 450 million US gallons (1.7 × 10 ^ 6 m 3), according to the National Biodiesel Board (NBB).
