Biodiesel consumption showed a clear upward trend for the 2025 calendar and quota year compared to the historically weak previous 12 months.
HVO volumes fell short of the previous year's level because quota obligations could be met more cost-effectively using biodiesel within the technical cap – the fuel standard for diesel (B7).
It is noticeable that, at the same time, sales of the pure HVO…

Renewable methanol is one of the few molecules that sits at the intersection of biofuels and chemicals. It can be produced from biomass and waste, certified under advanced biofuel frameworks, and used as a fuel in its own right or converted into the chemical building blocks that underpin modern manufacturing. That flexibility makes it strategically important. It also means that decisions being…
