Indonesia announced the abandonment of its B50 fuel project, a blend containing 50% palm oil-based biodiesel and 50% conventional diesel. The world’s top palm oil producer will maintain its current B40 mandate, composed of 40% biodiesel. According to government officials, this decision stems from technical concerns and funding constraints.
