Why Indonesia Is a Key Country for Palm Kernel Shell Supply Indonesia is the world’s largest palm oil producing country, supported by an extensive oil palm plantation and processing industry. This large production base also creates significant volumes of palm biomass, including Palm Kernel Shell (PKS). PKS is generated during the processing of palm nuts,…
The expansion of the palm oil industry is creating new opportunities for palm kernel shell in Latin America, as countries such as Colombia, Brazil and others strengthen their position in the global palm sector. For many years, the international palm oil industry has been dominated by Southeast Asia, particularly Indonesia and Malaysia. The same concentration…
Sustainable biomass, including appropriately sourced PKS, can contribute to a more diversified and resilient renewable energy portfolio in Korea.
Unlocking Renewable Energy: The Role of Palm Kernel Shells in Korea’s Power Sector Understanding Palm Kernel Shells (PKS) Palm kernel shells (PKS) are the hard, woody outer coverings of palm seeds. These versatile biomass materials are gaining popularity as a renewable energy source globally, especially in power generation. For Korean power plants striving for sustainable…
