Malaysia: Biofuels Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

With full implementation of a 7 percent blend in 2015, biodiesel production is forecast to reach 537 million liters, up from 359 million liters in 2014. A 10 percent blend is expected to be introduced in October 1, 2015, which, if successfully implemented, could further spur production to 703 million liters in 2016. Nonetheless, expectations for widespread use of the 10 percent blend are clouded by initial resistance from manufacturers of cars that utilize diesel.
