Global partnerships are always a beautiful thing, especially when it comes to creating cleaner sources of energy. The Korean Institute of Industrial Technology has the research and the technology to process seaweed into biofuel, and Indonesia has heaps of seaweed at their disposal. It would only make sense for South Korea and Indonesia to form a partnership.
This new joint venture will go a long way in adding to the diversification of global biofuel productions and help these massive Asian markets meet their energy needs.
