Abstract
Abstract Malaysia is endowed with abundant supplies of non-renewable energy resources, especially oil and gas. However, its current oil and gas reserves are expected to be depleted within 17 and 37 years, respectively. With the future prospect of energy prices likely to soar when the level of use of these non-renewable fossil fuel resources exceeds their threshold capacity, there is an urgent need for Malaysia to optimize the use of its huge quantities of palm oil biomass wastes as a renewable energy source. Against this background, this article aims to empirically and quantitatively analyze the potential of recovering renewable energy from palm oil wastes, which contributes substantially to harnessing a sustainable resource management system in Malaysia.
