European countries imported roughly 6.1 million metric tons of biodiesel in 2021. This was a decrease compared to the previous year and likely a fallout from the coronavirus pandemic. Biodiesel is the most commonly sold biofuel type on the European motor fuel market. The 2021 import quantity translated into an estimated biodiesel import value of 8.5 billion U.S. dollars.
