In the last few years, the Argentine press has published a number of articles regarding investment taking place in the nascent biodiesel industry in the country, indicating potential investor groups, estimated investment amounts, and installed capacity, present and future. But few of the myriad projects announced and described in these press releases and articles actually come to fruition, lending to significant confusion regarding the country’s actual and future biodiesel production capacity. Many of these projects continue seeking sponsors, especially in light of a difficult year between the farm sector and the Argentine government; many remain on standby. Some also appear duplicated under different names, resulting in even greater confusion. This study represents a summary of the full analysis which will be published by year end 2008 in Spanish and English under the name "The State of the Argentine Renewable Energies Industry: 2008" and will include a detailed analysis of the biodiesel, bioethanol, wind, solar and biomass industries in Argentina, which also have great potential for development.
