Malaysia delays B10 blending indefinitely due to high CPO prices

In Malaysia, the government announced that it will delay the implementation of its B10 blending mandate yet again after the most recent December 1 deadline was found to be unrealistic due to the price difference between fossil diesel and palm oil-based biodiesel. A new date has not been set yet as the government doesn’t want the policy to become a financial burden for consumers. Compliance by the industrial sector with the existing B7 mandate was expected for December 1 as well.
