Global Renewable Diesel Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029
Renewable diesel is made from the same renewable resources as biodiesel but uses a different production process. The result is a renewable fuel that is chemically identical to petroleum diesel and meets the same ASTM specification. Renewable diesel is one of the newer alternative fuels on the market but has quickly become popular because it effectively reduces emissions, delivers strong performance and has up to 85% less sulfur than ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD). As clean air regulations and sustainability goals become more common, this fuel will continue growing in popularity.
Market Overview:The latest research study on the global Renewable Diesel market finds that the global Renewable Diesel market reached a value of USD 22877.43 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 58345.88 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 16.89% during the forecast period.
Market Development ConstraintsDemand and prices for raw materials ranging from soybean oil to fats and animal fats are soaring. According to data from pricing services company Jacobson, used cooking oil is worth 51 cents per pound, which is about half the price last year.
Tallow made from beef or sheep fat sells for 47 cents per pound in Chicago, which is more than 30% higher than a year ago. This boosted the wealth of refiners such as Darling Ingredients in Texas and meat packers such as Tyson Foods. Darling's stock price has doubled in the past six months.
Renewable diesel producers increasingly rely on soybeans and canola oil to operate new plants. As the production capacity of renewable diesel continues to expand, the supply of raw materials has also become a huge problem. According to data from BMO Capital Markets, by 2023, if half of the proposed new renewable diesel capacity is built, the demand for US soybean oil may exceed US production by as much as 8 billion pounds per year.
