The following snippet is from the introductory section of this paid report from early 2022. I don’t have the report but it gives some cues around capacity building of bio-diesel in the country.
-
Emami Group has a capacity of 350 tons of Biodiesel (B-100) per day = 12.5 Crore Litres annual
-
HRPL (McDonald’s in West/South India) planned 7 Lakh tonnes (per Jan 2022) in a couple of years. This equates to 70 Crore Litres annually. Not sure how much of this is materialized.
For comparison, the capacity of Kotyark is 18 Crore Litres annually.
India needs 660 Crores for 5% blending by 2030. This gives ample headroom for companies like Kotyark, there are others who are equally active. Especially Food Business Operators (FBOs) are better placed to use the opportunity. Reason: UCO (used cooking oil) as a substitute for imported palm stearin oil
