The official presentation of the Global Biofuel Alliance (GBA) took place at the G20 summit in New Delhi on September 9, 2023. Countries such as India, USA, China, Brazil, Singapore, Bangladesh, Italy, Argentina, Mauritius and the United Arab Emirates launched GBA.

GBA is an initiative to develop an alliance of governments, international organizations, and industry to facilitate the adoption of biofuels. GBA Members constitute both major producers and consumers of biofuels – combined, the United States (52 percent), Brazil (30 percent), and India (3 percent), account for about 85 percent of production and about 81 percent of consumption of ethanol.
