What is Biofuels?
LEUM
OR N
Biofuels are fuels derived from recently living organisms (biomass).
C
P O R A T IO
They can be divided into three categories:
a) First-generation Biofuels: produced from energy crops e.g.
Sugarcane, Cassava, Corn, Oil Palm, etc
b) Second-generation Biofuels: produced from ligno-cellulosic plant
materials from organic wastes, food crop wastes and specific
biomass crops
c) Third-generation Biofuels: produced from genetically modified
energy crops such as algae and microbes
Examples of Biofuels include:-
Liquid: Fuel-Ethanol and Biodiesel;
Solid: wood, sawdust, grass cuttings, domestic refuse, charcoal,
agricultural waste, non-food energy crops, dried manure;
Gaseous: —Biogas from anaerobic digestion or gasification of
biomass 3

for the development of the oil and gas industry in Nigeria
• By 2006, Oil and Gas contributed about 37% of GDP, while Agriculture
contribution to GDP declined from 54.99% in 1966 to 32%

Natural Gas is estimated at 185 trillion cubic feet of proven reserve as at (-

Coal and Lignite Reserves are estimated at 2.75 billion tons.
The 35.9 billion barrels of oil in reserve will be depleted by 30 – 36

Maximizing the poverty-reducing effects of a Biofuels
industry in Nigeria requires engaging and improving the
productivity of small-holder farmers.
Our Feasibility Study shows that Sugarcane/Cassava/Oil
Palm-based Biofuels production is more profitable than
other feedstock options.
Our findings also indicate that a combination of Out-grower
Scheme approach and yield improvements rather than
expanded cultivation will address both poverty alleviation
and land-use issues

Food & Fuel NOT Food Vs Fuel
The National Biofuels Programme excludes staple crops such as:
millet, corn, rice, yam and grain sorghum, but plans to use Sugarcane, Cassava,
Sweet Sorghum, Palm Oil and Jatropha as feedstock for Biofuels production
Proposed Biofuels Projects are all integrated (Plant & Plantation) and as such will
not distort current food supply
Currently no commercial scale Biofuels production in Nigeria, hence the rising costs
of food in Nigeria is due to causes other than Biofuels production
The Programme is intended to boost Agriculture and add to food production through
improved farming techniques and high-yielding varieties
By 2020, the projected peak of Biofuels production would require about 500,000 ha
– using less than 2% of the arable land (33million ha) in Nigeria for JV Plantations
and Out-growers scheme
The Programme is modelled to integrate the Agric sector with the Oil and Gas
