Platts to hold Asia Biofuels and Feedstocks Workshop Sept. 6

Used cooking oil from Asia supplies the EU and US markets, and has become the dominant biofuel waste feedstock globally. Asian UCO is key for production of biodiesel, sustainable aviation, renewable diesel and in turn blended fuels such as biobunkers.

To discuss the latest updates, Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, is holding a biofuels and feedstock technical workshop with a focus on used cooking oil. This event, to be held Sept. 6, 2023, will review the current methodology for Platts UCO and used cooking oil methyl ester (UCOME).

During this workshop, we will cover the following topics:

  • In-depth view of UCO/UCOME markets and price drivers
  • Discussion on MOC counterparty review process
  • Overview of eWindow and potential UCO updates
  • What's next for Platts global bio and renewable fuels coverage

This online workshop is a good opportunity for you to discover more on the addition of UCO and UCOME to the Platts Market on Close eWindow communication tool.
