Indonesia: After a Decade Indonesia is Updating Its Biofuel Roadmap

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   ID2025-0006
Indonesia’s new biofuel roadmap shows the government’s 10-year plan for higher biodiesel blending rates, bioethanol’s inclusion in non-subsidized gasoline, and drop-in biofuels. The roadmap draft also recognizes organic waste as a biofuel feedstock. Although the roadmap shows lofty blending goals for bioethanol, it lacks the additional regulations that provide subsidies to cover the price spread between bioethanol and gasoline like the ones that prop up the biodiesel blend mandate. Without these subsidies, fuel retailers and biofuel producers will remain disincentivized to meet the new bioethanol blend mandates. The roadmap does not address tariff rate reductions for imported bioethanol.
