Renewable Energy
Mitigating the negative impacts of climate change is becoming a shared goal for countries and businesses to commit to Net Zero Emission. This includes Indonesia, who is confidently projecting to be fully decarbonized by 2060.
With the climate urgency, decarbonization should be the top priority.
For the government in order to avoid climate change and improve air quality. Especially with the prediction of the depletion of conventional energies such as fossil fuels and coals within the next 10 years, which Indonesia is very much still highly dependent on.
The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources reported that up until 2020, Indonesia had only reached 11.2% of the renewable energy share. With the target of a 23% energy mix by 2025. The government has to act fast in shifting to renewable energy in order to keep up with the goal.
The Contribution of Industry
Being one of the key major players in energy consumption, the industry also becoming increasingly conscious. To shift its business toward clean energy to reduce its carbon emissions.
Bahtera might have just begun the journey in the Paper Additive industry. However, we are working hard to contribute in utilizing new renewable energy.
By developing chemical products that are recyclable, reusable, and compostable. It is done by starting the product line of barrier coating. Which proves to be a sustainable alternative to non-biodegradable packaging.
The Future is Solar
As a country located in a tropical region, Indonesia has the geographical advantage to enjoy greater solar irradiance. Making solar energy one of the most potential renewable energy sources to utilize.
Unlike hydropower and wind power which are highly sensitive to geographical and climate changes, solar power provides more accessibility for a wider range of applications. Not only does solar power save electricity costs, but it also has interconnected impacts on livelihoods, health, safety, and the environment. Hence, it remains unsurprising that the Indonesian government chose solar power plants to be the backbone to supply clean energy by 2060.
Though considered the largest renewable source in Indonesia, the installed capacity of solar energy is only 0.09% of the 207.8 gigawatts potential. In order to get on track with the target to achieve 6,500 megawatts by the end of 2025, the government must speed up the distribution of solar photovoltaics throughout the country. One of the regulations that may help accelerate the growth of solar energy is MEMR Regulation No. 26/2021 concerning the use of rooftop solar energy systems.
As of March 2022, Bahtera has showed our commitment to support achieving Indonesia’s decade-long goal. By helping to reduce 39,933,633 kg of CO2 emission and producing 42,938,315 kWh of green energy per March 2022.
