<br>Renewable diesel manufacturers used 77% of their total operable capability in October, the highest since July 2024, the information revealed. [Biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) plant utilization rose to 89%, the highest because June 2023.<br>
<br>[Rising utilization](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) rates and improving margins are a welcome relief for the biofuels market, after operators withstood a rough start to 2024 as need growth slowed, leaving the marketplace oversupplied and requiring a number of [biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) plant closures.<br>
<br>Both [sustainable diesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) and [biodiesel](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) are more costly to produce than diesel, making suppliers based on government incentives such as tax credits. Among the 2, sustainable diesel has actually [emerged](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) as the preferred fuel for suppliers, as it gains better incentives and can [replace diesel](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) entirely.<br>
<br>Total biodiesel production capacity fell 4.2% year-over-year to about 2 billion [gallons](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) in October, according to data released by the U.S. Energy Information Administration on Tuesday.<br>
<br>Renewable diesel output capability increased almost 19% [year-over-year](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) to 4.58 billion gallons in October, the EIA information showed, as many new [biofuel plants](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) opened in the previous three years were geared towards it.<br>
