It is projected that by 2027, the national carbon emissions trading market will essentially cover major emitting industries in the industrial sector, expanding its coverage to high-emission industries such as chemicals, petrochemicals, civil aviation, and papermaking. The carbon market is expected to cover approximately 80% of the nations greenhouse gas emissions.According to Fox News: The U.S. Senate continued to advance the Russia sanctions bill today.July 29th, Futures News – According to foreign media reports, Malaysias Ministry of Plantation Industries and Commodities (KPK) anticipates that increasing the biodiesel blending ratio in Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah from B10 to B12 or B15 will reduce diesel consumption by approximately 334,139 tons (386.73 million liters) annually, equivalent to extending the domestic diesel supply cycle by up to 20 days. 1. Strengthening National Energy Security Resilience: KPK points out that increasing the biodiesel blending ratio in the national transportation sector is a proactive measure in the face of geopolitical uncertainties and the global energy crisis. This move will reduce dependence on fossil fuels and enhance Malaysias overall resilience to global energy market supply disruptions and price fluctuations. 2. Idle Capacity Expected to Be Released: Malaysia currently has 20 biodiesel plants with a total capacity sufficient to support B30 blending demand. However, current actual demand is mainly for B10 at gas stations and B7 in some industrial sectors, with most plants not yet operating at full capacity. Increasing the blending ratio will directly improve this situation. 3. Smooth Transition to End-User Status and Long-Term Planning: B15 biodiesel is blended from 15% palm oil methyl ester (PME) and 85% petrochemical diesel, allowing end-users to directly replace B10 fuel without incurring additional costs. The Malaysian government plans to further advance the blending standards to B20, B30, and even B50 in the future.On July 29th, the General Office of the Ministry of Commerce issued a notice on further strengthening the construction of convenient living circles in cities within 15 minutes.

WTI struggles to surpass $85.00 despite the fact that hurricane Fiona and US President Biden favor bulls

After declining for three consecutive weeks, WTI crude oil prices posted modest gains around $85.30 during Monday's Asian session as traders prepared for the Fed's monetary policy decision. In addition to price-positive news from China and the United States concerning Hurricane Fiona, the price of black gold remains positive. In addition, statements from Vice President Joe Biden appeared to have supported oil prices during a lackluster session.

 

Recent information from the National Hurricane Core (NHC) indicates that the center of hurricane Fiona will approach the northern shore of the Dominican Republic tonight. The Reuters update also stated, "Hurricane Fiona is currently traveling west of Puerto Rico and is headed for the eastern Dominican Republic, producing devastating flooding."

 

The news that Dalian, a city in the Chinese province of Liaoning, will remove the citywide lockdown on Monday also seems to have supported the WTI recovery. On the same line, US President Biden is quoted as saying, "I'm more positive than I've been in a very long time." The national leader also claimed that inflation will be brought under control.

 

Nonetheless, the oil bears are optimistic due to the Fed's hawkish wagers and the economic concerns emanating from China and Europe. Initial September Consumer Sentiment readings from the University of Michigan came in at 59.5, up from 58.6 the previous month but below market expectations of 60.0. With the stronger US statistics, the probability of a 75 basis point (bps) rate hike by the Federal Reserve increased to over 80%, or 82% at the time of publication, while the market's estimates of a complete one percentage point increase in the Fed rate jumped to 18%.

 

In the future, demand concerns are likely to continue exerting downside pressure on the energy market, despite the fact that the absence of important data/events on Monday and hurricane updates are likely to assist the black gold in recouping recent losses.
