VIEW PROFILE
In 2013 I have thought that biodiesel is one of the most important factor in maintaining CPO price stability. This is evidenced by the weakening of prices in 2015. The Government of Indonesia initiative to implement mandatory biodiesel program for Public Service Obligation (PSO) through the establishment of CPO Fund and its supporting regulations resulted in a rise in CPO price throughout 2016. The fund was obtained from the palm oil industry through the palm oil export levy. It is collected for the benefit of the oil industry itself.

In the early year of 2017 there was a slight decrease in price due to the increasing supply of CPO more rapidly than market demand. Efforts are needed to increase demand further. The potential way is going through mandatory biodiesel in the Non-Public Service Obligation (Non-PSO) market sector.

It should be ensured that biodiesel raw material, the CPO, are sustainable. This is required to support market expectations for environmentally friendly renewable energy and reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. In this case, intensification is the key to increasing Indonesian CPO production.

In this presentation, it will be discussed how the process occurs, the challenges and strategies for the future to ensure that this mechanism works well.
