Committed to carbon emissions reduction and supporting the domestic electric vehicle industry, Chandra Asri purchased and will operate two (2) units of electric bus produced by Mobil Anak Bangsa (MAB). The use of electric buses as operational vehicles for employees is a form of the Company's commitment to implementing Environment, Social & Governance (ESG) in environmental aspects, particularly in terms of energy saving and carbon emissions reduction. These two EV buses are calculated to cut diesel consumption by 13,776 liters per year, reduce emissions by up to 2,070 metric kg of carbon dioxide (CO2e), cut 25.1 metric kg of carbon monoxide (CO), and eliminate the output of B3 waste in the form of used oil. The MD 12-E NF City electric bus from MAB has a capacity of 51 seats and is planned to operate at Chandra Asri in January 2023. To prepare for the arrival of the EV us fleet, Chandra Asri is currently reviewing its plant in Cilegon to determine the location of the charging facility.
