N2 - Green diesel as a second-generation biofuel has received enormous attention owing to the huge demand for renewable fuel for addressing the net zero target in 2050. This study examines the development of green diesel research through a bibliometric analysis. The state-of-the-art green diesel research is studied based upon 1285 documents (1153 articles and 132 reviews) retrieved from the Scopus database related to the used keywords. The analysis focused on three categories: publication outcomes, most cited papers, and research area identification. The VOSviewer and RStudio (bibliometrix) were applied to analyse the data, rationalized within the framework of author, affiliation, country, citation analysis, cross-dimensional keyword analysis, research streams, and research gaps. The general result of the study highlighted a continuous incline in article numbers classified into three stages: initiation, exploration, and elevation. Those articles were mainly published in bioenergy-themed journals, including Fuel, Energy & Fuels, and Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews. Taufiq-Yap Yun Hin is the highest contributor with 41 articles, and Fuel published 110 articles. The rapid growth of green diesel was also inferred by the extensive spread of research maps worldwide. Amid those swift developments, the state of the art on green diesel through bibliometric analysis is not available to the best of our knowledge as far. Subsequently, this review aims to display the state of the art, research gap, and future forecast of green diesel research.
