PART

If

the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule

12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)



[X]

(a)

The

reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;





(b)

The

subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form N-SAR or Form N-CSR,

or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject

(c)

PART

III — NARRATIVE



State

below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion

thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.



BLUEFIRE

RENEWABLES, INC. (the “Registrant”) was unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March

31, 2017 (the “Quarterly Report”) within the prescribed time period because of technical connectivity

difficulties between the Registrant’s filing server and the Commission’s EDGAR server. The Quarterly Report was completed,

executed and ready to be filed with the Commission prior to the 5:30 p.m. Eastern time deadline for acceptance of filings on May

15, 2017, the due date for the filing, and the Registrant attempted to commence transmission of the Quarterly Report on the SEC’s

EDGAR system prior to such deadline. In spite of the Registrant’s best efforts to submit the Quarterly Report with the Commission

on a timely basis, the Registrant’s filing server was unable to do so due to such connectivity issues. The Registrant intends

to submit a written request for a date adjustment for the filing date to the Commission for the acceptance date to be changed

from May 16, 2017 to May 15, 2017. However, as a precautionary matter, the Registrant is submitting this Form 12b-25 to ensure

that the Registrant remains timely in its periodic filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
