Market Research Future (MRFR) has published a cooked research report on the “Biodiesel Market” that contains information from 2019 to 2035.
The Biodiesel Market is estimated to register a CAGR of 7.3% during the forecast period of 2025 to 2035.
Biodiesel Market Highlights
The Biodiesel Market was valued at USD 42.35 Billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 91.95 Billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 7.3% during the forecast period. This growth is attributed to rising environmental concerns, increasing demand for renewable fuels, and supportive government policies promoting cleaner energy alternatives.
Biodiesel is emerging as a sustainable and efficient alternative to fossil fuels, offering lower greenhouse gas emissions and a reduced carbon footprint. North America continues to dominate the market, driven by stringent environmental regulations, strong blending mandates, and a well-established renewable energy infrastructure. Europe follows closely, supported by the European Union’s renewable energy directives, while Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region due to the rising adoption of biofuels and increasing investments in renewable energy infrastructure.
The economic viability of biodiesel has improved significantly as technological advancements have lowered production costs and enhanced efficiency. The availability of abundant feedstocks, including vegetable oils, animal fats, and waste cooking oils, has contributed to the cost-effectiveness and scalability of biodiesel production.
Technological innovations such as advanced catalysts, enzyme technologies, and the utilization of alternative feedstocks like algae and cellulosic biomass are expanding the market potential. Moreover, growing environmental awareness and government initiatives supporting cleaner energy transitions are accelerating biodiesel adoption across transportation, industrial, and power generation sectors.
Leading companies in the global biodiesel market are investing heavily in research and development to optimize production processes, expand product portfolios, and form strategic partnerships. MRFR recognizes Biodiesel Industries (Italy), Neste (Finland), Renewable Energy Group (US), Cargill (US), Bunge (Brazil), ADM (US), Green Plains (US), Valero Energy (US), and World Energy (US) as the key players operating in the market.
Segment Analysis
The Biodiesel Market has been segmented based on Type, Application, and Region.
By Type, the market is segmented into Methanol, Biohydrogen, and Cellulosic Ethanol. The Cellulosic Ethanol segment held the largest market share in 2024, attributed to its use of non-edible plant materials, higher energy efficiency, and lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional biodiesel.
By Application, the market is divided into Transportation and Off-Grid Electricity Supply. The Transportation segment dominated the market in 2024 and is projected to remain the fastest-growing category through 2035, driven by the adoption of biodiesel as a drop-in fuel compatible with existing diesel engines, particularly in the commercial vehicle segment.
Regionally, North America accounted for the largest share of the global biodiesel market in 2024, supported by favorable government policies and renewable fuel standards. Europe ranked second, led by countries such as Germany and the UK with strict emission regulations and high biofuel adoption rates. Meanwhile, Asia-Pacific emerged as the fastest-growing region, fueled by population growth, rapid industrialization, and rising awareness of environmental sustainability.
