Dear Levy Aaron,

I response to your previous email, I received some figures as I wrote down below

- What percent of palm oil mills in Indonesia are currently capturing
  POME biogas? ------ 3.5%

- What percent are in the process of constructing projects to capture
  POME biogas? ---- 2%

- What percent are planning to construct POME biogas capture projects
  between now and the 2022? --- depends on CER price after 2012 Kyoto Protocol

- Of the mills that currently capture POME biogas, what percent use
  covered lagoons and what percent use closed tank digesters? -- all projects use lagoons covered

- Of the mills that currently capture POME biogas, how are they using
  the biogas? For example, is it flared, used for electricity, used for
  steam or used for electricity and steam? -- all used for electricity

Regards,
Achmad Rachman
