Looks like all the Oil Companies in the Philippines have already expressed their capability to implement the 1% mixing of biodiesel in diesel come May 2007 when the Philippine Biofuel Act takes effect.
No mention however on their capability to implement the mixing of ethanol in gasoline which is also a requirement in the Law.

Creating such a low biodiesel blend seems a little ridiculous. While this seems like a regulation with the intentions of spurring domestic investment in biofuel technology, I wonder if the Philippines have looked at all feedstock sources or blending processes to maximize the B# blend.
In the end though, I must praise them on going “green”.
Cheers,

Since its still in its infancy, I’m assuming that that is what the Dept of Energy and Dept of Science and Technology are going to work on…
Thanks for dropping by Francesco
