Biodiesel and renewable diesel (RD) played a noticeable role in the credit increase, with adoption of the two fuels rising from 0.40% of the distillate volume to 74.2% of the volume halfway through 2024.

RD consumption has risen every year and currently accounts for 67% of the distillate market share.

Biodiesel consumption peaked at 7.7% in 2021, tapering off to a 7.4% market share in 2023, and has been 7.2% through the second quarter of 2024.
