Biodiesel mandatory expansion program is a government’s policy encouraged by President Joko Widodo. Under this policy, biodiesel B20 mandatory program is compulsory both for Public Service Obligation (PSO) and non-PSO sector, including heavy machinery, power plant, military vehicles, etc. Formerly, biodiesel use is only mandatory for subsidized diesel users (PSO).
At least, there are two benefits could be received by implementing mandatory biodiesel. Firstly, to support new and renewable energy policy by implementing Indonesian energy mix targets to encourage national energy security. Secondly, to stabilize crude palm oil (CPO) price by managing palm oil and its derivatives supply and demand.
