DescriptionIndonesia has made a revolutionary breakthrough in the energy sector: President Prabowo Subianto officially announced the launch of B50 fuel, which contains 50 percent palm oil-based biofuel [INDEX, INDEX]. This radical move by its neighbor has intensified competitive pressure on Malaysia—the world’s second-largest palm oil producer [INDEX]. A fierce debate is underway in the CIS and Asian energy markets: will Kuala Lumpur decide to respond in kind and urgently raise its own mandatory standard (currently B20) to B30 by the end of December?
ConditionsYes: if, during the period from August 1 to December 31, 2026, the Malaysian Ministry of Plantations and Commodities or the Malaysian government officially publishes a regulatory act introducing a mandatory national B30 biodiesel standard (with a 30 percent palm oil content). No: if, during the period from August 1 to December 31, 2026, no official decisions are made to increase the mandatory biofuel blend level in Malaysia to B30 or higher.
