Abstract: A short-term performance test of blended biodiesel (FAME), green diesel (HVO), and diesel was experimentally assessed in a 100 kW Cummins 6BTAA5.9-G12 diesel engine under multiple load conditions. The objective was to determine the technical feasibility, operational trade-offs, and optimal blend formulations for renewable energy deployment in diesel power plants. All tested blends operated stably without engine modification, confirming the "drop-in capability" of FAME–HVO mixtures for existing diesel engines. Specific fuel consumption (SFC) increased notably at high loads, with penalties up to 15.15% for B30D20 and B35D15 relative to neat diesel, although overall efficiency improved with load. Among the ternary fuels, B30D10 and B30D20 provided the most balanced compromise between combustion reactivity and flow properties. Exhaust gas temperatures rose with load for all fuels, with FAME-rich blends exhibiting higher temperatures than neat diesel, while coolant-side analysis showed D100 and D50 as thermally favorable and B50–B100 imposing the highest cooling demand. The results emphasize the need for injection system recalibration on an energy basis for HVO-rich fuels, and for strengthened filtration and maintenance practices for FAME-rich blends to avoid filter clogging and injection instability. Considering performance, operability, and system stability up to 100 kW, B30D10 and B35D15 are identified as optimal compromise blends. The study highlights the necessity of future work on long-term durability, fuel system compatibility, supply chain robustness, and techno-economic viability to safely scale green diesel use in Indonesian stationary power generation.
