InfoSAWIT, JAKARTA – Director of Holding Perkebunan Nusantara PTPN III, Muhammad Abdul Ghani mentioned, there would be some massive projects for PalmCo.

One of them is constructing biodiesel industries within 450.000 tons with the basic material, refined bleached deodorized palm oil (RBDPO) and should be operating in 2025. He thought, this is the role of the company in 35 percent - biodiesel mandatory program (B35) and the plan to realize B40.

Then the next project is to construct bio compressed natural gas (CNG) at six palm oil mills that PalmCo would manage. Ghani thought, this would have been finished by 2024 by having cooperation with other parties.

He continued, PalmCo would conduct smallholders replanting program (SRP) for about 60.000 hectares and should be realized until 2026. As part of national strategic program, PTPN through PalmCo would get strategic initiative to support some other programs, such as, palm oil downstream industries by constructing one palm cooking oil mill.

He also said, palm cooking oil mill construction would be in partnership that would last in 2025 - 2026. It could escalate bulk palm cooking oil in this country and escalate crude palm oil (CPO) production. “By establishing PalmCo, in 2026 it is hoped PTPN could produce 1,8 million tons of palm cooking oil,” Ghani said.

He also predicted palm cooking oil production of the company could increase from 460.000 tons in 2021 to be 1,8 million tons per year up to 2026. “It means, palm cooking oil production would escalate four times in 2026,” Abdul Ghani said.

Ghani continued, PalmCo would try to escalate palm oil plantation downstream products, such as, to be the biggest palm oil company in the world from plantation side. “Our palm oil plantations would be more than 600 thousand hectares in 2026, and would be the key player in palm oil industry in the world,” he said.
