Industries, as the largest carbon emitters in Indonesia, require the availability of green electricity to transition. In response to this demand, PT PLN (Persero) and WRI Indonesia have collaborated to launch innovative green electricity options. This diversification of green electricity options began several years ago with the introduction of the Renewable Energy Certificate (REC) and has now expanded with the launch of a new option called Green Energy as A Service (GEAS). Through the GEAS Dedicated Source scheme, industries can not only purchase green electricity but also contribute to its operationalization (customer model) or its construction (contribution model). Learn more about GEAS in this post.

𝗚𝗮𝘀 𝗠𝗮𝗹𝗮𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗮 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘀 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗴𝗮𝘀 𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 Gas Malaysia Bhd’s wholly owned subsidiary, Gas Malaysia Virtual Pipeline Sdn Bhd (GMVP), is partnering Greenviro Solutions Sdn Bhd, in which GMVP will procure biomethane generated at the Ampang Jajar Waste Transfer Station in Penang, injecting it into Gas Malaysia’s Natural Gas Distribution System (NGDS). This is part of Gas Malaysia’s commitment to align with the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR), which aims to increase the country’s installed renewable energy (RE) capacity to 40% by 2035 and to 70% by 2050. The recently held groundbreaking ceremony marked the commencement of the construction of the Ampang Jajar Waste Transfer Station, attended by Seberang Perai Mayor Datuk Azhar Arshad and Local Government, Town and Country Planning Committee chairman H’ng Mooi Lye. The Ampang Jajar Waste Transfer Station will be operated by Greenviro and it is anticipated to be operational by the second half of 2025 (2H25). In line with this vision, Gas Malaysia has commenced its decarbonisation journey by adding more impetus to the development of cleaner energy sources through its green gas venture.

Indonesia unveils revised rooftop solar regulations The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources has issued a revised set of regulations, replacing the previous ones concerning Rooftop Solar Power Plants (PLTS). The newly signed Ministerial Regulation (Permen) Number 2 of 2024 aims to address electricity buying and selling schemes for Rooftop PLTS, introducing incentives while disallowing users to engage in such transactions. Despite this restriction, the government plans to offer incentives to boost Rooftop PLTS installations, as mentioned in Article 13 of the regulation. https://lnkd.in/gmRF_dTm #indonesia #rooftop #solar

More businesses are enjoying the benefits of switching to renewable energy through the Green Energy Option Program (GEOP). The First Philippine Industrial Park, Inc. (FPIP) brought this into focus during the Department of Energy’s (DOE) third leg of the Information, Education, and Communication Campaign on GEOP and Other Renewable Energy Voluntary Programs, in partnership with the United States Agency for International Development—Energy Secure Philippines, in Batangas City on 29 April 2024. In 2021, GEOP has been promulgated as an energy mechanism to fasttrack the acceleration and utilization of renewable energy developments in the country. Entities with an annual average peak demand of at least 100 kWh can now power their operations with 100% renewable energy without upfront costs. #MurangKuryente #LeadOnClimate #ClimateRealityPH

In order to reduce emissions, the Sintesa Group develops the Sintesa Energy business model through PT Meppo-Gen and PT Sintesa Banten Geothermal (SBG). Sintesa Energy focuses on investing in the utility and renewable energy sectors to provide products, services, and supporting infrastructure projects that facilitate the development and distribution of clean and renewable energy. So, how does Sintesa Group specifically contribute to Indonesia's NDC (Nationally Determined Contributions) target? Here’s how we actively promote sustainable initiatives. PT Meppo-Gen focuses on the development of clean energy power plants as an Independent Power Producer (IPP) with a capacity of 110 MW that utilizes natural gas. In fact, natural gas releases 60% fewer CO2 emissions than coal. Furthermore, we also use Combined Cycle technology that harnesses residual heat and exhaust gasses to generate electricity, further reducing carbon emissions. PT Meppo-Gen has also adopted the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) as part of the Certified Emission Reduction (CER) program supported by the United Nations. Moreover, SBG has been designed to generate electricity with a capacity of 110 MW through power plants in Serang and Pandeglang, Banten, utilizing geothermal energy resources. The utilization of geothermal by SBG is not only aimed at achieving significant electricity capacity but also positively supports the attainment of Indonesia's NDC targets, aligning with the implementation of the Paris Agreement. Investments in this new and renewable energy not only create clean electricity capacity but also have a positive impact on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, strengthening Sintesa Group's contribution to emission reduction. #SintesaGroup #SintesaForTheEarth #sintesaenergy #ndc #parisagreement #renewableenergy
