On Saturday (16/12), dozens of PLN Nusantara Renewables Group employees embarked on a journey through the Pakis Valley in the Gunung Pancar Tourism Park area, Sentul, with a single objective: to reach the majestic Leuwi Asih Waterfall. This excursion marked the celebration of the company's 8th anniversary, which falls on December 18, 2023.
Dubbed the "Fun Walk with PLN Nusantara Renewables Group," the morning commenced with ice-breaking activities and a warm-up session. Equipped with trekking poles, the participants were then guided to board a pickup truck, which transported them to the starting point of the hike. Notably, there were no distinctions between PLN Nusantara Renewables-APPA and Director-Staff in the vehicle; all mingled together in eight small groups, unified in their quest to achieve the common goal.
Setting off from the starting point,
participants trekked for three hours under the radiant Sentul sun. Despite
encountering rocky paths, bridges, inclines, descents, and rice fields, the 63
participants sported cheerful smiles, their green T-shirts adorned with the
emblem of "PLN Nusantara Renewables," drenched in sweat.
Upon reaching the chilly waters of
Leuwi Asih Waterfall, the group indulged in a refreshing break before returning
to Pakis Valley for a lunch event featuring a picnic & barbeque party. During
the gathering, participants relished grilling an array of meats, chicken,
sausages, and fish, fostering camaraderie and togetherness. Additionally, the
company generously distributed 30 door prizes, ranging from vouchers to
bicycles, amplifying the lively and warm atmosphere of the occasion.

Stunting, a condition characterized by growth failure in children due to inadequate nutritional consumption during pregnancy and the first 1,000 days of life, remains a pressing issue in Indonesia. According to stunting.go.id, in 2022, the national stunting prevalence rate reached 21.6%, indicating that 2 out of every 10 children in Indonesia experience delays in growth and development.Recognizing the severity of this issue, the Government of the Republic of Indonesia has prioritized the "Accelerating the Reduction of Stunting in Under-fives" program in its 2020-2024 National Medium Term Development Plan, aiming to reduce the prevalence rate to 14% by the end of the period. Various strategies have been employed, including enhancing access to nutritious food, providing nutritional education for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, community-wide campaigns emphasizing the importance of nutrition, and investing in health infrastructure. Additionally, targeted intervention services are offered to directly address stunting causes, led by Posyandu health cadres. These services encompass boosting nutritional intake for pregnant women with chronic energy deficiency, administering blood supplement tablets to pregnant women and teenage girls, offering complementary feeding to children aged 6-23 months, monitoring the development of children under five, and enhancing nutritional intake for malnourished children, among others.Health cadres serve as the backbone of the stunting reduction program, functioning as extensions of the Government, Health Service, and Community Health Centers. They play pivotal roles in developing, assisting, and reporting on the progress of stunted children and those at risk of stunting on a monthly basis. Consequently, PLN Nusantara Renewables is committed to enhancing the capacity of these cadres, in alignment with its dedication to societal well-being.On December 7, 2023, in conjunction with National Health Day, PLN Nusantara Renewables played an active role in accelerating the reduction of stunting prevalence rates in the Cilandak District through its CSR program. The company provided financial support by offering prizes for a quiz event targeting health cadres. Additionally, it supplied cooking equipment to bolster educational initiatives aimed at addressing stunting in the community.This support is an integral component of PLN Nusantara Renewables' CSR program and is in line with the company's 8th Anniversary theme, "Greenfinity through Sustainability," which underscores the interconnected aspects of people, profit, and planet. Through these initiatives, the company exemplifies its dedication to the sustainable well-being of communities, fostering prosperity and productivity among its stakeholders.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that workers in Jakarta "rarely" see sunlight on weekdays. Many employees begin their journey to the office before dawn, only to return home long after dusk.With such a work rhythm and limited time, it's natural for employees to overlook prioritizing healthy food in their daily routines. With minimal access to balanced meals at work, employees often opt for low-nutrient, high-calorie foods that are convenient and filling. Unfortunately, coupled with a lack of daily physical activity, this increases the risk of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease among workers.Regrettably, poor health conditions are not uncommon among PLN Nusantara Renewables employees. Medical checkup results frequently highlight elevated cholesterol and uric acid levels. Additionally, among the 28 directors and staff, only 21% have a "normal" nutritional status, with the remainder classified in pre-obesity, obesity 1, and obesity 2 stages.In an effort to address and prevent further deterioration of this condition, the company launched a program called Healthy Morning on Friday, December 1, 2023. This initiative is part of the 8th Anniversary celebration of PLN Nusantara Renewables and involved collaboration with Dietela, a nutrition consulting company, to deliver material titled "Starting a Healthy Life" and assess employees' nutritional conditions. Beyond assessing nutritional conditions and lifestyle, Dietela's nutrition experts have devised personalized meal plans to guide staff in regulating the types, portions, and frequency of meals. These meal plans are tailored to each participant's health conditions and targets, and their implementation will be monitored over an 8-week period. The goal is for participants to cultivate healthier living and eating habits, ultimately achieving a more ideal body condition by the end of the program.
Commemorating Eid al-Adha 1444 hijri, PJBI, together with all subsidiaries and affiliated companies donated sacrificial animals in the form of 34 cows and 21 goats. These sacrificial animals have been distributed to the needy community spread across 4 projects under PJBI management as well as around the PJBI office. This program is a form of the company’s concern for the surrounding environment as well as a platform to get to know our stakeholders, namely the community around the office and also PJBI projects. May the blessings always be with us.
As an electricity investment company that currently focuses on developing commissioned projects, establishing good communication with subsidiaries and affiliated companies, partners, shareholders and various other stakeholders, coordination is a necessity that is always being prioritized.The achievement of PJBI's net profit of 137% of the plan in 2022 cannot be separated from the contribution of revenue from PJBI’s investment in all Subsidiaries and Affiliated Companies. PLTU Jawa 7 as the only power plant under PJBI management that is already in the operating phase, managed to provide the highest contribution of Rp718.32 B through the SGPJB and Rp269 million through the GHPJB. On the other hand, in 2022 PJBI received its first dividend from PLTU Jawa 7 of Rp107.4 billion. This achievement did not escape the participation of PJBI in bridging communication and coordination with China Shenhua as a fellow shareholder in PT SGPJB and PT GHPJB, PLN as an off-taker and PLN Nusantara Power as a shareholder of PJBI. Meanwhile, good communication with the ultimate shareholder in NSHE, namely SDIC, also took place successfully which resulted in positive development performance of PLTA Batang Toru and contribution of operating income of Rp103.75 Billion. From 2 other projects, namely SSPewali as JVC of PLTU MT Sumbagsel 1 and PMSE as JVC of Cirata Floating Solar Power Plant, good communication was also established through strategic achievements in development performance and contribution to operating income of Rp1.28 Billion and Rp68.83 Billion, respectively.Even more so, PJBI’s journey with the vision of being a World Class Electricity Investment Company still needs to be developed. For us, the Learning Curve will always be rolling to create continuous progress in making the best contribution to Indonesia and the world. The direction from PLN Nusantara Power as the majority shareholder of PJBI is also important as we learnt to ensure every step taken by PJBI is in line with the vision and strategic direction of the shareholders, which will contribute greatly to the Government of Indonesia's target for electricity development. Thank you to all PJBI Subsidiaries and Affiliated Companies, Partners, Shareholders, Regulators and all other stakeholders for their support and good communication during 2022. Hopefully, all communication and synergy will be well maintained to provide clean energy for the progress of the nation.
