VIEW PROFILE
Indonesia’s Biodiesel program has been considered as one of the main drivers of Palm Oil market in last 3 years. After the establishment of CPO Fund in 2015, the mandatory blending program in Indonesia has gone partly smooth, at least for diesel fuel for PSO (Public Service Obligation) sector. Although the other half of demand, the non-PSO, has not picked up significantly, the PSO quantity of 2.5 to 2.7 million Kilo Liters has enough to maintain the prices at this current level.
With better productions since a very dry season in 2015, crude oil prices has been improving in past years and market disturbance overseas, the Biodiesel policies in Indonesia would have to play another important part in near future to maintain or improve the price level. Indonesia, and maybe Malaysia too, need to produce another policy on Biodiesel to make sure market can absorb the growing production in Indonesia and Malaysia.
