As described previously, biodiesel (FAME) and bioethanol remain the predominant forms of renewable fuel distributed in the UK. Although they are dominant, other types of renewable fuels are also blended into the fuel supply. For the most part, supply of biofuel products decreased in 2020 across major product types. Off road biodiesel, biomethanol, biopetrol, and biomethane supply increased by 22.5%, 172.5%, 40.1%, and 172.5%, respectively. The top three supplying countries of biofuel feedstocks to the UK market – China, the US, and the UK – have remained the same in 2020. While the UK has remained a top three supplier, the volume supplied decreased by 17.5% year-on-year. The most significant gain in the top 10 feedstock suppliers was Malaysia which increased its supply by 52% to 157 Mleq in 2020.
