+<br>JAKARTA, July 24 (Reuters) - Indonesia, the world's most significant palm oil producer, is checking fuel with a view to increasing to 40% from 35% the share of palm-oil combined into [biodiesel](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) next year, the energy ministry stated.<br>
+<br>If [carried](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) out, the B40 [mandate](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) could increase biodiesel consumption to as much as 16 million kilolitres (KL) next year, the ministry stated, from 13 million KL estimated to be consumed in 2024.<br>
+<br>"We hope the trials might be ended up in December, so that complete execution of B40 might be performed in 2025," [energy ministry](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) senior official Eniya Listiani Dewi stated in a statement on Tuesday.<br>
+<br>The Indonesian [Biofuel](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) Producers Association (APROBI) said the industry had the capability to satisfy B40 demand, with installed capacity [expected](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) to rise to 20 million [KL yearly](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) next year from 18 million KL now.<br>
+<br>"However we will require more raw materials to satisfy B40 demand," Ernest Gunawan, the secretary general of APROBI informed  on Wednesday.<br>
+<br>The [biodiesel](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) industry would need 13.9 million metric lots of [unrefined palm](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) oil to produce 16 million KL [biodiesel](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) next year, from the estimated 11 million tons needed this year, he included.<br>
+<br>Indonesia's greatest palm oil association GAPKI stated a decline in exports implied there would be sufficient raw products to supply the B40 mandate for now.<br>
+<br>But the [industry](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) would require to examine "which one would be more important", GAPKI chairman Eddy Martono stated, describing the possibility an increase in exports would make supplying the domestic market less [feasible](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb).<br>
+<br>Indonesia's palm oil output is [approximated](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) to reach 54.4 million loads in 2024, a 2.26% increase from in 2015, while exports are expected to decline by 2.47% to 29.5 million loads as [domestic consumption](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) rose, driven by [biodiesel required](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/).<br>
+<br>The ministry had actually [evaluated](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) the [biodiesel](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/), [blended](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) with 40% of palm oil, on a train for the very first time previously today, while preparing to test the B40 mix on agriculture machinery, power plants and in the shipping industry, it stated.
