5,000 Mangrove Seedlings from PLN Nusantara Renewables Ready to Enhance and Protect Coastal Areas Around Jawa 7 Power Plant
5,000 Mangrove Seedlings from PLN Nusantara Renewables Ready to Enhance and Protect Coastal Areas Around Jawa 7 Power Plant Banten, July 26, 2024 – Every year, July 26 is celebrated as the International Day for the Conservation of the Mangrove Ecosystem. Marking this occasion, PLN Nusantara Renewables, with its subsidiary, PT Shenhua Guohua Pembangkitan Jawa Bali (SGPJB), continued their mangrove conservation program around the Jawa 7 Power Plant. The event featured not only the symbolic planting of mangroves but also a drawing competition for children and a site tour around the power plant and jetty, coinciding with Indonesia’s National Children’s Day. The Jawa 7 Power Plant, a 2 x 1,050 MW coal-fired power plant, stands as one of the most advanced and environmentally friendly power plants in Indonesia. Committed to providing reliable, affordable, and clean energy, the plant also focuses on fostering a healthier environment for nearby communities. Beyond employing ultra-supercritical technology to enhance efficiency, the plant has implemented a Mangrove Protection Plan to maintain the ecological balance throughout its construction and operational phases. “At PLN Nusantara Renewables, we believe that business success must go hand in hand with environmental sustainability,” said Harjono, President Director of PLN Nusantara Renewables. “As an energy sector company, we carry a profound responsibility to safeguard nature’s sustainability. This commitment is reflected not only in our efforts to develop renewable energy technologies but also in our initiatives to protect and preserve ecosystems,” he added. As part of this commitment, and under the theme “Hand in Hand, We Are Committed to Investing in Nature: Plant Mangroves for the Future of Mankind,” PLN Nusantara Renewables planted 5,000 mangrove seedlings last Friday (July 26). Over their estimated eight-year lifespan, these mangroves are projected to absorb 146.5 tons of CO2—equivalent to reducing emissions from a car journey of over 2.3 million kilometers. This initiative follows a similar effort in 2022, when the company planted 7,000 mangrove seedlings that now flourish around the Jawa 7 Power Plant. Zhou Zhigang, President Director of PT SGPJB, commended PLN Nusantara Renewables’ efforts, saying, “We are deeply committed to environmental protection in Indonesia, actively conserving mangrove forests, and establishing wildlife protection centers within mangrove ecosystems. Our goal is to develop a sustainable and environmentally friendly power plant, a commitment that has earned recognition and trust from the public and stakeholders alike.” Representing CHN Energy Group, Yun Tianbao, President Director of GD Power, delivered a virtual message urging the global community to strengthen mangrove conservation efforts by increasing resource investments, advancing scientific research, and exploring innovative development strategies. “Together, let’s envision a future where mangrove forests thrive, oceans grow clearer, and our planet becomes even more beautiful,” he concluded.
PLN Nusantara Renewables, TotalEnergies, and Adaro Power Take a Major Step Toward Constructing the Largest Wind Power Plant in Kalimantan
PLN Nusantara Renewables, TotalEnergies, and Adaro Power Take a Major Step Toward Constructing the Largest Wind Power Plant in Kalimantan Jakarta, July 5, 2024 – In a demonstration of their shared commitment to delivering clean and sustainable energy to the Indonesian people, TotalEnergies, Adaro Power, and PLN Nusantara Renewables (PLN NR) have formalized their collaboration by signing a Shareholder Agreement (SHA) for the Tanah Laut Wind Power Plant (PLTB) project. The agreement was signed on Friday, July 5, at the Muara Karang Meeting Room, PT PLN (Persero) Headquarters. Located in Tanah Laut Regency, South Kalimantan, the Tanah Laut PLTB marks a significant milestone as the first wind power plant under the PLN Group and the first of its kind on the island of Kalimantan. The plant will have a total capacity of 70 megawatts (MW), generated by 11 wind turbines, each with a capacity of 6.6 MW. To enhance reliability, the project will also include a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) with a capacity of 10 MW/10 MWh, designed to address fluctuations in power generation during operation. This innovative combination makes the Tanah Laut PLTB the first hybrid wind power plant in Indonesia to feature an integrated battery storage system. The project will be implemented and operated by a joint venture company (JVC), PT Tala Alam Baru. The company is established by a consortium comprising TotalEnergies and Adaro Power through PT Bayu Energi Listrik Lestari (PT BELL), which holds a 70% ownership shares. PLN Nusantara Renewables, as the mandatory partner appointed by PLN, holds the remaining 30% ownership shares. To support the project’s financial needs, the International Finance Corporation (IFC) has committed to providing funding, underscoring the initiative's strong environmental credentials. The signing of the SHA marks the beginning of a strategic collaboration between PLN NR, TotalEnergies, and Adaro Power in advancing renewable energy development in Indonesia. It also aligns with the Indonesian government’s ambitious target to achieve a 23% renewable energy mix by 2025. Harjono, President Director of PLN Nusantara Renewables, stated, "It’s an exciting opportunity for us to collaborate on this partnership. The Tanah Laut PLTB is not only a significant step in diversifying PLN NR’s energy portfolio but also a concrete manifestation of our commitment to providing clean and sustainable energy to communities across Indonesia." In line with that, President Director of Adaro Power, Dharma Djojonegoro, expressed similar optimism. "It is an honor to collaborate with PLN NR and TotalEnergies on this landmark project. The signing of the SHA demonstrates our dedication to realizing Adaro’s green vision through the Adaro Green initiative, which focuses on developing renewable energy sources to drive Indonesia’s energy transition. We are confident that the Tanah Laut PLTB will bolster electricity supply within Kalimantan’s interconnection system, enhance the renewable energy mix, and deliver reliable, sustainable, and affordable energy for the people." "We are pleased to welcome PLN NR as a partner. The signing of this SHA is a critical milestone for us, as this will be the first wind power project in Kalimantan and our third in Indonesia. By leveraging our expertise, we are committed to contributing to Indonesia’s energy transition journey by delivering cleaner and more sustainable energy solutions," added Gregory Thomassin, Head of Business Development for TotalEnergies Renewables APAC. The Tanah Laut PLTB is expected to be completed and commence operations by 2025, playing a pivotal role in mitigating climate change and helping Indonesia meet its renewable energy goals.
