Chandra Asri Solar Panel Installation Second Phase

PT Chandra Asri Petrochemical Tbk continues to invest in environmentally friendly technologies to gradually transition to renewable energy to address issues in the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) aspects. On 22 July 2021, Chandra Asri and TotalEnergies have completed the construction of the second phase of a solar PV (photovoltaic) rooftop installation as per target for Chandra Asri’s plant in Cilegon, Banten. This facility is built to power 15% of the needs of Chandra Asri’s warehouses, laboratory, and office buildings with green power. The site is one of the largest petrochemical facilities in Indonesia and one of the first long-term solar contracts for Chandra Asri. The facility has been using solar energy since August 2019, and this second solar installation increases the solar power capacity by more than 50% - significantly increasing cost savings and reducing carbon footprint, with an estimate of 1,080 tons of CO2 emissions avoided annually, comparable to removing 230 cars from the road or planting 18,000 trees annually. With a capacity of 1,153 kWp, this facility will generate around 1,500 Megawatt-hours (MWh) of renewable electricity annually.
