Executive Summary
Summary:
Regarding market demand, Europe is the largest biodiesel market. However, Asia-Pacific (APAC) is expected to see the strongest growth rate in the coming years, followed by South America. North America is the second-largest market. Demand for biodiesel in EMEA is negligible and is not expected to grow significantly in the coming years. EMEA's meager market share and growth are mainly due to its large production and usage of fossil fuels, including fossil diesel.
Classification by feedstock shows that rapeseed oil is currently the major market segment. Rapeseed oil is followed by soybean oil and palm oil. However, usage of these feedstocks widely varies by region. For example, rapeseed is the most common feedstock in Europe, while soybean oil is the most common feedstock in the Americas (both North America and South America). APAC continues to use palm oil heavily for biodiesel production. In terms of growth, used cooking oils and animal fats are expected to grow gradually. Due to its low price and easy availability, the used cooking oil segment is expected to grow most robustly in the coming years in the developed world.
Transport is the significant segment by application. Transport's share was estimated at REDACTED% in 2022 and is expected to increase to REDACTED% by the end of 2028. Automotive fuel is expected to be the major segment within transport, followed by aviation fuel. Power generation also has a demand for biodiesel.
