What is Palm Biodiesel?

Derived from diesel blended with Palm Methyl Ester (PME), widely used in Southeast Asia and marketed in blends such as B7, B10 and B20
Higher biodiesel content helps reduce carbon emissions¹
Supports carbon footprint reduction and aligns with sustainability targets²
Compatible with most diesel engines³

Used in common blends in the market such as B7, B10 and B20.

¹National Energy Transition Roadmap (2023), Ministry of Economy – Biodiesel (B20, B30) identified as a key GHG mitigation measure, contributing to lifecycle emission reductions.

²National Energy Transition Roadmap (2023), pp. 41–43 – Biofuel blending mandates (B10, B20, B30) support Malaysia’s pathway to net zero emissions and industry sustainability goals.
³Biodiesel in Malaysia is produced to MS 2008:2014 standards, which set fuel quality and engine compatibility requirements.

PETRONAS Biodiesel Offering

Each blend contains a different percentage of biodiesel, tailored to meet operational and regulatory requirements. PETRONAS, the first provider to introduce B20 in the market, supports both nationwide and sector-specific mandates — helping your business stay compliant and environmentally responsible.
