Who regulates and funds the biodiesel programme?

The blending mandate and volume allocations are set by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), including fuel specifications through the Directorate General of Oil and Gas and the Directorate General of New, Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation (EBTKE). Biodiesel incentives for the PSO (subsidised) sector are disbursed by the Plantation Fund Management Agency (BPDP, formerly BPDPKS), whose funds come from levies on palm product exports.
