概要

論文の詳細を見る
Indonesia sets a nation's plan to expand the use of biofuels by 3% in 2015 and 5% in 2025, because biofuel industry expands domestic fuel supply and opportunity of employment. On-site energy production from biomass is important for rural community, especially for remote area. However, we should keep attention about the prospect that fuel ethanol and biodiesel will become global market products like crude oil. This means that commercial exploitation of biomass plantation just for pursuit of company's and nation's interest may cause negative impacts such as deforestration, decrease in biodiversity, changes in regional cultures, and limitation of forest utilization rights for local communities. To control the use of land, biomass and human resources for the new industry, international, regional and local framework is necessary.
