  • Which biodiesel feedstock is used in Indonesia?
  • From 2008¨C2016, the mandatory program for the transport sector only applied to the public service obligation (PSO). Under the program, the Government of Indonesia explored several kinds of biodiesel feedstock, including jatropha, crude palm oil (CPO), and used cooking oil (UCO) (EBTKE, 2019).
  • Can used cooking oil make Indonesia's biodiesel?
  • In a 2018 ICCT study, Kharina et al. assessed the opportunity of used cooking oil (UCO) to make Indonesia¡¯s biodiesel and found that UCO is inexpensive and abundant, but underutilized.
  • Who facilitates palm biodiesel development in Indonesia?
  • Several key institutions and governmental bodies which facilitate the palm biodiesel development in Indonesia include (1) the government represented by the MEMR, (2) Indonesian Oil Palm Estate Fund Agency (BPDPKS), (3) the biodiesel industry, and (4) Pertamina as the state-owned oil and gas company.
  • How does Indonesia finance biodiesel?
  • Regarding the financial incentives, virtually all of Indonesia¡¯s biodiesel is produced from palm oil, and in 2015, the government established a funding mechanism whereby a levy on exports of palm oil and derivatives provides a revenue stream to ofset the price diference between palm biodiesel and fossil diesel.
  • Can biodiesel be used as a drop-in fuel in Indonesia?
  • At the same time, Indonesia is actively seeking opportunities in renewable diesel, a more advanced biofuel that can be produced from the same oil and fat feedstocks as biodiesel, but which possesses superior compatibility properties as a drop-in fuel.
  • Can biofuels be produced in Indonesia?
  • Studies of the second and third-generation feedstock for biofuel production are interesting since Indonesia has abundant waste materials such as waste oil and agricultural biomass. Of course, there is also a need to perform comprehensive studies in terms of LCA and techno-economic analysis of palm and other feedstocks for biofuel production.
