<br>NEW YORK CITY, Jan 3 (Reuters) - U.S. [renewable](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) diesel and [biodiesel](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) manufacturers ramped up [operations](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) in October to [multi-month](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) highs, helped by [stronger margins](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) for the biofuels, according to data put together by advisory group AEGIS Hedging.<br> |

<br>Renewable diesel producers used 77% of their total [operable capacity](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) in October, the greatest since July 2024, the data showed. [Biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) plant to 89%, the highest since June 2023.<br> |
|||
<br>[Rising usage](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) rates and enhancing margins are a welcome relief for the biofuels market, after operators endured a rough start to 2024 as demand growth slowed, leaving the market oversupplied and forcing a number of biodiesel plant closures.<br> |
|||
<br>Both eco-friendly diesel and biodiesel are more costly to produce than diesel, making providers depending on [federal](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) government incentives such as tax credits. Among the 2, sustainable diesel has actually emerged as the favored fuel for suppliers, as it reaps much better rewards and can [replace diesel](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) totally.<br> |

<br>Total [biodiesel](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) [production capacity](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) fell 4.2% year-over-year to about 2 billion gallons in October, according to information released by the U.S. Energy Information Administration on Tuesday.<br> |
|||
<br>Renewable diesel output capacity increased nearly 19% year-over-year to 4.58 billion gallons in October, the EIA information showed, as a lot of brand-new [biofuel](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) plants opened in the previous three years were geared towards it.<br> |
|||
<br>Still, oversupply pushed sustainable diesel output [capacity](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) 6% lower in October from a record 4.90 billion gallons in June.<br> |
|||
<br>In addition to plant closures, success for the market in October was boosted mainly by a rise in the value of credits required for compliance with federal biofuel mandates, stated Zander Capozzola, vice president of eco-friendly fuels at AEGIS.<br> |

<br>D4 Renewable Identification Numbers, released for [biodiesel](https://www.abnnewswire.net/companies/en/31347/%E0%B8%9A%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B4%E0%B8%A9%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%97-Mission-NewEnergy-%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B3%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%94.html/4) and eco-friendly diesel production, increased from a low of 56 cents each in September to over 71 cents in October, enhancing success for making the fuels, Capozzola stated.<br> |
|||
<br>Margins were likewise helped by stronger need for diesel, which struck an one-year high in October, [raising](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) prices for both the [conventional fuel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) and its options, he stated.<br> |

<br>Prices for credits under the [Low Carbon](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) Fuel Standard program of California, where most biofuels are [consumed](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) in the U.S., also rose from below 60 cents each in Sept to over 70 cents each in October, according to AEGIS.<br> |

<br>"You actually had everything rowing in the best direction in October," Capozzola stated. (Reporting by [Shariq Khan](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) in New York |
