5 Asia Ethanol Summit March 2013 JW Marriott Bangkok, Thailand Rising demand in Asia is expected to drive up Thailand's ethanol exports by 111% to 300 million litres this year, from 142 million litres in Demand is strong in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and the to serve their industrial and transport sectors. Asia has moved into the limelight of the world ethanol industry. While it is expected that demand in the region will continue to grow, it should not be forgotten that the structure of the sector is completely different. Not only are the markets much smaller and fragmented, the product mix between fuel and non-fuel varieties varies quite significantly from country to country. In contrast to Europe and Brazil, the non-fuel segment is still bigger than fuel applications, and what is more it is still expanding at a rapid pace. The inaugural Asia Ethanol Summit is staged to discuss updates for Ethanol supply and demand in the region, outlook on the raw materials as well as a look at the key drivers in Asia. Hear from ethanol leaders and network with key decision leaders in the conference. Who will you meet? WHY ATTEND?
