Using Pongamia for Biodiesel production has the two-fold environmental benefit of growing trees that store carbon while producing oil for fuel. Pongamia will grow on land not fit for food crops and does not need nitrate fertilizers like most other bio fuels crops.

Pongamia as a confident source of Biodiesel has high oil content (approx. 40%) and can grow on malnourished soils with low levels of nitrogen and high levels of salt; it is fast becoming the focus of a number of Biodiesel research programs.

The main advantages of Pongamia are that the higher recovery and quality of oil than other crops, no direct competition with food crops as it is a non-edible.
Pongamia has no direct competition with existing farmland as it can be grown on degraded and marginal land.

Whilst there are marked advantages in the use of Pongamia for Biodiesel, also as it a legume Pongamia could able to fix its own nitrogen from the soil, minimizing the need for added fertilizers.
