摘要：

Japan’s palm kernel shell (PKS) imports have dramatically increased since 2012, when biomass-generated power became eligible for a feed-in-tariff program (FIT). In 2019, Japan imported approximately 2.5 million metric tons of PKS and other palm residues, which were almost entirely consumed by medium and large FIT-eligible biomass power plants. Japan’s use of palm kernel meal for feed was minimal.
