The Global Renewable Diesel Market was valued at USD 25.8 billion in 2025 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.7% to reach USD 57.9 billion by 2035.

Rising global demand for fuels with lower lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions is continuing to accelerate their adoption. Renewable diesel gains strong momentum due to its compatibility with existing diesel engines and fuel distribution systems, which supports a smooth transition without requiring large capital investments. Governments, industries, and fleet operators increasingly prioritize energy solutions that balance emissions reduction with operational reliability. Renewable diesel is positioned as a strategic option for enhancing fuel security while addressing climate commitments. Supportive regulatory frameworks, combined with volatile crude oil markets and geopolitical uncertainty, reinforce the need for diversified and domestically sourced fuel alternatives. The market also benefits from growing interest among energy producers due to renewable diesel’s strong performance characteristics and its ability to meet regulatory and corporate sustainability requirements without compromising efficiency. These combined factors establish renewable diesel as a central component of the global transition toward lower-carbon energy systems.

Renewable diesel is described as a low-carbon fuel produced from biomass-based resources and offers chemical equivalence to conventional diesel. This allows immediate use across existing infrastructure while supporting emissions reduction and energy resilience goals. Policy support and regulatory incentives continue to strengthen development activity and encourage adoption across multiple end-use sectors seeking to reduce dependence on petroleum-based fuels.

The vegetable oil feedstock segment accounted for 88.3% share in 2025 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.9% through 2035. Rising demand for renewable and sustainable inputs supports the continued dominance of this segment, as such feedstocks align with decarbonization objectives and deliver performance characteristics comparable to traditional diesel when processed through advanced refining technologies.

The transportation segment held 73.6% share in 2025 and is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 8.5% from 2026 to 2035. Fleet operators increasingly adopt renewable diesel to meet emissions targets while maintaining reliability and performance standards. Regulatory compliance and corporate sustainability commitments continue to strengthen demand within this application segment.

United States Renewable Diesel Market held 90.3% share in 2025 and is expected to generate USD 26.3 billion by 2035. Strong policy support and regulatory frameworks continue to incentivize low-carbon fuel adoption across multiple industries, reinforcing renewable diesel’s role as a practical alternative to petroleum-based fuels.
