In 2024, Ireland continued to rely on imports of second-generation biofuels, with Belgium, Netherlands, and the UK being the top exporters. The market remained highly concentrated, indicating limited diversification. Despite a negative Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) from 2020-24, the sharp decline in growth rate from 2023-24 suggests a challenging environment for the sector. Monitoring shifts in import trends, regulatory landscapes, and technological advancements will be crucial for stakeholders navigating this evolving market.
