An approximately of 1MW solar power plant has been set up in Indonesia by ventures of Shizen Energy Group (Shizen Inc) and Alam Nix Renewables Pte.. Limited (ANR).
The completion ceremony was held in Indonesia on April 19th 2022 and was attended by the Deputy Ambassador of Embassy of Switzerland Mr. Philip Strub, Vice Minister of Embassy of Japan in Indonesia Mr. Masami Tamura and other honorable guests.
Shizen Energy and ANR have mutually collaborated and established PT ATW Alam Hijau (AAH). It is a local subsidiary and has been installed in collaboration with the ATW Group. ATW Group is responsible for handling in the sales department of the solar power plant generation resources equipment and the development and construction of solar power plants. With its effective operation in the field, AAH aims to develop and expand the solar power plant generation business in Indonesia.
This solar power plant is established on the land lying adjacent to the PT. Anugerah Pharmindo Lestari’s (APL) distribution facility in Cikarang, West Java and is installed by AAH. In addition to this, another company of APL, which is a group company of Swiss health care corporation Zuellig Pharma, has also a prime logistics facility in Cikarang which is in the industrial park and is responsible to distribute the resources and materials. However, it shall also be noted that the electricity generated through this solar power plant shall be utilized and consumed by the APL.
In an official statement on the same Christophe Piganiol, President Director of APL, said that, “APL plays an active role in prioritizing the value of sustainability in business. APL will continue to collaborate with strategic parties to achieve ambition in our sustainability mission with other initiatives.”
Also from another press release issued from APL, it stated that, “With the spirit to provide the best for future generations, APL strives to develop sustainability pillars. With addition to this, it is further added that Cikarang NDC facility, APL is also preparing for the successful installation of solar power panels for APL Medan and it is all targeted to get finalized and be completed by the year 2022. With these green earth measures and also through other Sustainability programs by APL, it is hoping that APL can bring in a significant and positive impact on the environment.”
With an aim to work for better earth, APL is aiming to reduce the major electricity costs by using the cost –competitive and clean renewable energy without making initial investments. In addition to this, it will further work by switching some percent of its electricity consumption to sustainable renewable energy sources. Also, the APL is aiming to contribute to the effective reduction and consumption of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in all its business activities and further similar uses. However, this whole solar panel power project is expected to produce an approx of 1,089MWh of power per year and also effectively reduce the GHG emissions by an approx of 669t-CO2 per year. Also, it shall also be noted that, the Indonesian government has further declared that from now on, the country will work to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060, and this solar project can also be an aid and contributing factor in order to achieve this goal sustainably.
