In 2023, France's gross inland consumption of blended biodiesels stood at a value slightly below the 2024 forecast of 8.71 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent. The forecast indicates a steady yearly increase of about 2.4% through 2028 as demand consistently rises to reach 9.53 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent. Observing the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) projected over 2024 to 2028, the biodiesel market in France is experiencing moderate but sustained growth, driven by policy support and increasing environmental awareness.
Future trends to watch for include shifts in regulatory frameworks impacting renewable energy, advancements in biodiesel technology increasing efficiency, and fluctuations in crude oil prices influencing biodiesel attractiveness compared to fossil fuels.
