Indonesia's Incoming Leader Hopes to Implement 50% Palm Based Biodiesel in 2025

BIODIESEL - JAKARTA. Indonesia president-elect Prabowo Subianto hoped to implement mandatory 50% palm oil-based biodiesel blending by early next year, which he said would cut fuel imports by $20 billion per year.

Indonesia last week said it planned to raise the blending to 40% in January 2025, from the present 35% concentration in an effort to reduce fuel imports and lower emission from fossil fuels.
