Biofuels are a significant contributor to renewable energy, accounting for 70 % of the global renewable energy supply. This contribution is heavily influenced by the formulation and implementation of policies that favour the development and consumption of biofuels. This study adopts a systematic literature review of biofuel polices, production and utilisation in Nigeria. The study examines the influence of policies from 2007 to 2025 on Biofuel production in Nigeria. Some key challenges and opportunities for scaling up biofuel production in Nigeria were identified. Unfortunately, despite the numerous policies, over the past decades, they have not attracted sufficient attention to facilitate notable growth in the sector. The study shows that Nigeria possesses significant bioresource potential that could contribute substantially to meeting its growing energy demand, particularly through effective implementation of the 2007 Biofuel Policy. To be a self-sufficient energy-generating country, biofuel production should be sustainable through substantial investment in research to keep pace with global technological advances
