Indonesia trialing B40s blends in cold temps in the mountains of Java

In Indonesia, Bloomberg reports B40 vehicles trials are moving to the island of Java over the next few weeks where six Toyota Innova minivans will be tested at higher altitudes. Since palm oil-based biodiesel tends to solidify in colder temperatures, the aim is to see if the higher blend can keep the vehicles running up in the mountains. The road tests are trialing both 40% palm oil-based FAME as well as 30% FAME with 10% HVO.
