The Indonesian government began enforcing the 50 percent biodiesel blend mandate (B50) for all diesel fuel on 1 July 2026. The Institute for Essential Services Reform (IESR) called for a recalculation of the policy's costs and risks.
PT Elnusa Petrofin has distributed the first batch of Biosolar Industri B50 from Fuel Terminal Indonesia Bulk Terminal Pulau Laut in South Kalimantan. The move supports the government's program to strengthen national energy resilience.

INDEF executive director Esther Sri Astuti said B50 implementation risks raising vehicle maintenance costs.
