Indonesia plans to resume its biodiesel programme, with state firm Pertamina producing an experimental 40% blend (B40) containing 30% FAME, 10% green diesel and 60% fossil diesel. Pertamina also ran a three-day trial producing 1,000 barrels per day of green diesel.
Indonesia continues its WTO complaint against EU restrictions on palm-based biofuels.
Revival of the B40 programme would raise domestic palm oil use for biofuel, supporting palm oil prices.
