Comprehensive guide to assessing the impact of organizational activities on the environment, from energy consumption and emissions to waste generation and resource usage.
Amid rising climate concerns, society is embracing a low-carbon future, with stakeholders ranging from governments to eco-conscious consumers driving sustainability efforts. Globally, commitments from UN Climate Change Conference (COP) 26 and Indonesia's ENDC are accelerating actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions. Notably, at COP 27, accountability for climate action now includes businesses such as Chandra Asri Group, which as Indonesia’s leading chemical and infrastructure company, committed to lead in sustainability and integrate green practices into growth strategies.
For Chandra Asri Group, climate resilience strategy starts with climate risk assessment, leading to a decarbonization roadmap that support Indonesia’s Net Zero Emission Target, aligned with ENDC and LTS-LCCR 2050. We chart an additional course, preparing for rigorous regulations and stakeholder expectations while striving to adhere to science-based targets (SBT).
Process modification, equipment substitution, waste- heat recovery, digitalization, loss reduction, energy consumption management, and increasing operational efficiency.
Business expansion with lower emission, expanding renewable energy business, study on green or sustainable product development, circular plastic, a new chemical pathway, and potential business from nature-based solution
Study on low carbon fuel application such as blue/green H2, RDF and CCUS implementation in collaboration with technology and service providers.
Providing nature-based solutions such as forestry practices, blue carbon, restorative agriculture, and marine practices
Chandra Asri Group adopts a dual circularity approach, with an internal strategy dedicated to enhancing waste management within operational processes and an external strategy focusing on community-level material use management.
We are incorporating circular economy principles internally into our operational strategy to reduce waste and promote material reuse. By using the 4R approach—reduce, reuse, recycle, and recover—we aim to minimize waste generation and encourage a circular flow of resources. Our goal is to enhance waste management practices and move towards a more sustainable operational model.
The second aspect of Chandra Asri Group’s circularity strategy focuses on managing material use at the community level. This includes efforts to promote plastic waste management in the community through educational outreach initiatives aimed at raising awareness about the importance of plastic recycling and the advantages of a circular economy.
Since its inception in 2018, the program has exceeded target of 100 kg of roads using plastic waste materials in 2023, demonstrating Chandra Asri Group’s commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. Furthermore, 2024 onwards focusing on stakeholder collaboration for plastic asphalt road implementation. Each kilometre of the plastic asphalt road incorporates approximately 1.6 tons of plastic waste, equivalent to recycling approximately 1.2 million plastic bags, showcasing tangible environmental impact and community engagement.
