Mission NewEnergy Limited (Nasdaq:MNEL) (ASX:MBT), is pleased to announce that it has commenced selling biodiesel into the Malaysian biodiesel mandate.

This represents another major milestone towards the full implementation of the Malaysian mandate, which Mission expects to be a significant new market opportunity for Mission’s refined biodiesel.

On 2 June 2011, Mission announced the official launch of the Malaysian B5 Palm Oil Biodiesel blending mandate and flagged its expectation to commence sales into the mandate in July 2011.

The mandate obligates all oil majors in Malaysia, namely Petronas, Shell, Esso, Chevron and Boustead Petroleum Marketing to reach a 5% biodiesel blend by 1 November 2011 for the central region of Malaysia. This ramp up period will allow the supply chains to be finalized and optimize logistics. During this ramp up period Mission will supply approximately 2,500 tonnes of biodiesel.

Mission has commenced early sales via direct purchase orders ahead of anticipated longer term sales contracts in November 2011.

“As a biodiesel industry leader in Malaysia, we are delighted to participate in the implementation of the mandate and look forward to the expected sales volume increase over time, which in turn will improve our capacity utilization, increase our revenue and provide a positive impact to our bottom line,” said Nathan Mahalingam Group CEO of Mission NewEnergy Limited.
