Nevertheless, post the pandemic, the market recovered again with increased usage in the transportation sector.

  • Over the short term, the South-East Asia biodiesel market is expected to grow more due to the global drift towards low-carbon emission fuels and the initiatives on behalf of the governments of South-East Asian countries to promote the use of biofuels for various applications.
  • On the other hand, owing to the issues, such as food security, land use, and deforestation, the threat still subsides for the biodiesel market.
  • Nevertheless, the ongoing trade of biodiesel and bioethanol among South-East Asian countries like Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand etc., creates lucrative opportunities for the market, as it promotes the use of biodiesel for various applications.
  • Indonesia is expected to dominate the market due to the country's efforts to promote the use of biodiesel, and high palm oil production (the main raw material for biodiesel production).
