Malaysian Palm Oil Industry
• Currently one of the largest palm oil producer
• Largest palm oil exporter in the world
• Oil palm cultivation in 2008: 4.48 mil. Ha
• Palm oil (crude) production in 2008: 17.73 mil. T
• About 50% of the world palm oil production
• Export more than 90% of palm oil products
• Export earnings in 2008: RM 65.2 billion
• Current crude palm oil price: RM2,350.00 (USD 660.00)
• Malaysian palm oil exported to more than 150 countries.

World Scenario• About 20 countries involved in oil palm
cultivation.• Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Nigeria are
4 significant producers of palm oil.• Account for more than 80% of world palm oil
production.• 80-90% of palm oil used as food and 10-20%
used in non-food applications (oleochemicals & biofuel)
• Palm oil has to compete with 16 other oils and fats for its market share.

Potential of Palm based Renewable Energy
• Substitute to fossil fuel (diesel & medium fuel oil)
• Palm oil complex – supply steam and electricity to refinery & kernel crushing plant
• Major feedstock for Small Renewable Energy Programme (SREP) & Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects
![Page 16: NEXT GENERATION BIOFUELS: MALAYSIAN EXPERIENCE Sabri Ahmad and Choo Yuen May International Conference on Green Industry in Asia, Manila, Philippines, 9-11.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062806/5697bfda1a28abf838cb0487/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Small Renewable Energy Programme (SREP)
• Launched on 11th May 2001 in conjunction with country’s fifth fuel policy (8th Malaysian Plan, 5% of total national generating capacity to be generated from the RE sources)
• 9th Malaysian Plan (2006 – 2010): Target of Electricity to be Generated• 300 MW in West Malaysia • 50 MW in East Malaysia
• Implementation Agency : Ministry of Energy, Green Technology & Water.
• Objective: to allow small power producers which utilize RE sources to sell their electricity to Tenaga Nasional Bhd. – maximum power export limited to 10MW
• Biomass waste generated from Palm Oil Mills, in particular Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) and Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) was identified as a main RE fuel for biomass based power plant

Clean Development Mechanism
• Involves the trading of emission reductions resulted from a specific project (called CERs once such reductions are certified) to countries that can use these CERs to meet their targets. In return for the CERs, there will be a transfer of money to the project that actually reduces the greenhouse gases.
• January 2009 – 36 projects registered
• 28 projects – Palm based Biomass / Biogas projects
• CER issued : 4 projects

Biofuels from Jatropha & Algae
• Some activities including R&D are on-going in Malaysia.
![Page 35: NEXT GENERATION BIOFUELS: MALAYSIAN EXPERIENCE Sabri Ahmad and Choo Yuen May International Conference on Green Industry in Asia, Manila, Philippines, 9-11.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062806/5697bfda1a28abf838cb0487/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Conclusions• Next generation biofuels can be produced from
various palm sources.
• Biomass-to-Liquid (BTL) is an emerging bioenergy for future generation.
• Algae & jatropha are two potential feedstocks for biofuels production.
• Sustainable palm resources management is required to move the 2nd generation biofuels industry forward.
• Development of green fuels will contribute significantly to reduction of GHG emissions and mitigate climate change.

MPOB LCA Programmes
• Aim is to improve carbon footprint and GHG emissions of the entire production chain of palm oil and related products
• LCA Programmes include- Upstream (nursery, plantation)- Midstream (CPO, RBD Palm Oil, RBD Palm Olein production, margarine, etc.)- Downstream (biodiesel)
• Address to international issues on GHG emissions and climate change mitigation
