HVO from UCO Prices, Demand and Supply Overview

In the United States, the highest-cost reporting region, HVO from UCO prices rose just above 3.2% in Q3 2026, moving from roughly USD 3,000/MT in Q2 to close to USD 3,095/MT in Q3, and it was higher used cooking oil costs, strong biodiesel margins, and firm demand from quota buyers that most plausibly shaped the move. Across the tracked regions, the global average rose from about USD 2,780/MT in Q2 to near USD 2,871/MT in Q3, a gain of just under 3.3%. For Q4 2026, a global average of just above USD 2,760 to 3,100/MT is expected, with used cooking oil prices, import flows, and blend caps guiding the range.

HVO from UCO is a renewable diesel produced by hydrotreating used cooking oil, a waste feedstock collected from restaurants and food processors, which qualifies for double counting and low carbon intensity treatment in many schemes. It is used as a blending component in road diesel, in fleets with sustainability targets, and as a feed for sustainable aviation fuel, with quota driven road fuel blending taking the largest share of demand. Used cooking oil prices and collection, import flows and fraud checks, blend caps for Annex IX feedstock, biodiesel margins, and shipping costs all feed into the price.

HVO from UCO Price Forecast for 2026

The balance of supply and demand for HVO from UCO through the end of 2026 leans firm. Used cooking oil in Northwest Europe traded near 1,280 to 1,290 euros per tonne in the week to 10 September 2026, up 1 to 3 percent on the week, and the spread between UCO biodiesel and the oil stayed above 400 dollars per tonne. Demand is still strong ahead of blend caps.

The main upside risk is further tightness in used cooking oil supply or a spike in gasoil prices that lifts prices above the forecast range. The main downside risk is that blend caps are reached or that buyers wait for lower prices in the fourth quarter, which would pull prices below the forecast.

Region 2026 Price Range (USD/MT) Outlook
Global Average 2,760 - 3,100 Feedstock gains guide the range
Singapore 2,580 - 2,900 Regional feedstock keeps Singapore lowest
Netherlands 2,680 - 3,010 Hub imports hold a lower middle
Germany 2,800 - 3,150 Annex IX demand holds an upper middle
United States 2,970 - 3,340 Imports and credits hold the top
