The North America Oil Based Biofuel Market was valued at USD 20.5 billion in 2025 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 9.1% to reach USD 49.4 billion by 2035.

Growth across the region is supported by stable, multi-year federal volume requirements that provide long-term demand visibility for oil based biofuels. These regulatory frameworks allow producers and refiners to plan feedstock sourcing strategies more effectively, optimize co-processing operations, and justify capital investment in pretreatment and conversion capacity. The structured nature of fuel standards enables biodiesel and renewable diesel to contribute toward broader advanced fuel targets, ensuring high utilization across production assets. Ongoing updates to compliance mechanisms reinforce regulatory continuity and oversight, which further strengthens investor confidence. In parallel, regional low-carbon fuel programs are accelerating deployment of diversified feedstock strategies and encouraging long-term supply agreements linked to carbon intensity performance. As carbon reduction targets become more stringent, credit economics continue to favor fuels with lower lifecycle emissions, supporting increased production of renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel derived from waste-based inputs. In addition, clean fuel regulations across North America are reinforcing demand for low-carbon diesel by requiring lifecycle emission reductions and enabling tradable credit mechanisms tied to compliant fuel supply.

The biodiesel segment held 54.2% share in 2025 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.4% through 2035. Consistent blending requirements and standardized fuel quality specifications continue to support stable demand across core U.S. markets. Industry-led quality assurance initiatives and ongoing technical standard enhancements have improved compatibility with modern engine systems, addressing concerns related to performance, fuel stability, and long-term equipment reliability. This combination of policy enforcement and technical validation has reinforced biodiesel’s role within regional fuel supply chains, supporting distribution across rail, trucking, and agricultural logistics networks while maintaining competitiveness against conventional diesel and alternative renewable fuels.

The transportation application segment accounted for 74% share in 2025 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 10% through 2035. Transportation remains the primary end-use sector for oil based biofuels in North America due to continued reliance on liquid fuels across freight movement, fleet operations, and heavy equipment usage. Fleet operators are increasingly adopting higher biofuel blends and renewable diesel to meet internal emissions targets while maintaining operational flexibility and refueling convenience. As electrification adoption remains limited for long-distance and off-road use cases, oil based biofuels continue to serve as an immediately deployable and scalable decarbonization solution, reinforcing transportation’s dominant contribution to overall market demand.

United States Oil Based Biofuel Market accounted for 93% share in 2025, generating USD 19.1 billion. Market growth in the country is underpinned by a combination of federal policy consistency and large-scale industrial deployment. Performance-based tax incentives have shifted industry focus toward lower-carbon feedstocks and operational efficiency improvements across refining assets. The U.S. market is further characterized by widespread refinery conversions that utilize existing petroleum infrastructure to produce renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel at commercial scale, reinforcing the country’s leadership position within the regional market.
