+<br>NEW YORK CITY, Jan 3 (Reuters) - U.S. eco-friendly diesel and biodiesel manufacturers increase operations in October to [multi-month](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) highs, [assisted](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) by stronger margins for the biofuels, according to information put together by advisory group AEGIS Hedging.<br>
+<br>Renewable diesel [producers](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) used 77% of their overall operable capacity in October, the highest considering that July 2024, the data showed. [Biodiesel](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) plant usage rose to 89%, the highest considering that June 2023.<br>
+<br>[Rising usage](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) rates and improving margins are a welcome relief for the biofuels industry, after [operators sustained](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) a rough start to 2024 as demand development slowed, leaving the market oversupplied and forcing a number of [biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) plant closures.<br>
+<br>Both renewable diesel and  are more pricey to produce than diesel, making providers depending on government [rewards](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) such as tax credits. Among the 2, sustainable diesel has become the preferred fuel for providers, as it gains better incentives and can substitute diesel totally.<br>
+<br>Total [biodiesel](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) production capacity fell 4.2% [year-over-year](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) to about 2 billion [gallons](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) in October, according to data launched by the U.S. Energy Information Administration on Tuesday.<br>
+<br>Renewable diesel output capacity rose almost 19% year-over-year to 4.58 billion [gallons](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) in October, the EIA data revealed, as many brand-new [biofuel](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) plants opened in the past three years were geared towards it.<br>
+<br>Still, oversupply pressed renewable diesel output capacity 6% lower in October from a record 4.90 billion gallons in June.<br>
+<br>In addition to plant closures, profitability for the industry in October was increased mainly by a rise in the worth of credits needed for compliance with federal [biofuel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) mandates, [stated Zander](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) Capozzola, vice president of eco-friendly fuels at AEGIS.<br>
+<br>D4 Renewable Identification Numbers, issued for [biodiesel](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) and renewable diesel production, [increased](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) from a low of 56 cents each in September to over 71 cents in October, improving profitability for making the fuels, Capozzola said.<br>
+<br>Margins were also helped by more powerful demand for diesel, which struck an one-year high in October, raising costs for both the traditional fuel and its options, he stated.<br>
+<br>Prices for credits under the Low Carbon [Fuel Standard](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) program of California, where most biofuels are consumed in the U.S., likewise [increased](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) from listed below 60 cents each in Sept to over 70 cents each in October, according to AEGIS.<br>
+<br>"You really had everything rowing in the best instructions in October," Capozzola said. (Reporting by [Shariq Khan](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) in New York City
