+<br>JAKARTA, Jan 3 (Reuters) - Indonesia Energy and Mineral Resources Minister signed a decree on Friday designating 15.6 million kilolitres (KL) of [biodiesel](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) for 2025 distribution, while giving the industry until the end of next month to adjust to the higher level of the fuel in the mix.<br>
+<br>Indonesia, the [world's largest](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) exporter of palm oil, had actually planned to release the mandatory requirement of 40% palm oil fuel in biodiesel on Jan. 1, up from 35% now.<br>
+<br>"The ministerial policy has actually been signed," the minister Bahlil Lahadalia told reporters, adding the federal government was working to increase the compulsory biodiesel mix to 50% next year.<br>
+<br>[Eniya Listiani](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) Dewi, a ministry senior authorities, said [biodiesel](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) manufacturers and fuel sellers will be offered till Feb. 28 to adjust to the B40 mix. She said the [hold-up](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) was since of technical difficulties connected to aids for the fuel.<br>
+<br>The non-implementation on Jan. 1. had actually led to a 2.6% drop in the Malaysian palm oil benchmark contract on Thursday. On Friday, it recuperated by around 1%.<br>
+<br>Fuel sellers and [biodiesel manufacturers](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) had actually stated they were not able to draw up contracts for [biodiesel circulation](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) without the decree.<br>
+<br>The biodiesel allowance for 2025 showed an increase from 2024['s approximated](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) biodiesel intake of 12.98 KL, ministry information showed on Friday.<br>
+<br>Of the total [allocation](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) for this year, 7.55 million KL is for the public service  (PSO), which covers sectors such as public transport, whose sales will be subsidised by the nation's palm [oil fund](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited).<br>
+<br>"The remaining allocations will be sold at market price. The non-PSO allowance is set at 8.07 million KL," Bahlil stated, adding the fund might not subsidise the rate gap between the palm oil and [nonrenewable fuel](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) sources for the general allocation.<br>
+<br>BPDPKS, the company in charge of gathering and handling the palm oil funds, estimated in November B40 would need a 68% [subsidy increase](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL).<br>
