Chile`s renewable diesel import market continues to thrive, with the USA, Japan, South Korea, Areas, nes, and Marshall Islands being the top exporters in 2024. Despite a slight decline in growth rate from 2023 to 2024, the industry maintained a high concentration level, as reflected by the high HHI. The impressive compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.9% from 2020 to 2024 underscores the growing demand and importance of renewable diesel in Chile`s energy sector. The country`s reliance on imports for renewable diesel highlights opportunities for market expansion and diversification in the coming years.

Renewable diesel, produced from renewable feedstocks such as vegetable oils, animal fats, and waste oils, offers a low-carbon alternative to conventional diesel fuel, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants. In Chile, the renewable diesel market is expanding, driven by government mandates, environmental regulations, and investments in renewable energy and biofuels infrastructure.
The need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels drives the demand for renewable diesel in Chile. Government mandates and incentives promoting the use of biofuels further stimulate market growth, with renewable diesel offering a cleaner and more sustainable alternative to conventional diesel.
In the Renewable Diesel market, feedstock availability and regulatory incentives present challenges. As governments promote renewable fuels to reduce carbon emissions and dependence on fossil fuels, securing sustainable feedstock sources and complying with blending mandates becomes essential. Additionally, overcoming technical barriers and ensuring compatibility with existing infrastructure and engines requires collaboration across the supply chain.
Policies related to the renewable diesel market in Chile may focus on renewable fuel standards, tax incentives for biofuel producers, and regulations governing the blending and distribution of renewable diesel fuels. Additionally, there may be initiatives to promote investment in renewable diesel production infrastructure and support for research into advanced biofuel technologies.
