During the Indonesia International Sustainability Forum 2024, PLN subsidiaries PLN EPI and PLN IP reaffirmed their commitment to advancing renewable energy in Indonesia. The signing of the Green Hydrogen Purchase Agreement with PT Pupuk Indonesia and ACWA Power demonstrates PLN's dedication to the country's energy transition. PLN President Director highlighted the role of hydrogen in achieving Net Zero Emissions by 2060. The collaboration aims to produce green hydrogen for green ammonia, crucial for national energy security and sustainable fertilizer production. By replacing non-renewable natural gas with green hydrogen, PT Pupuk Indonesia ensures a stable fertilizer supply, contributing to national food security. PLN plans to construct a new green hydrogen and ammonia plant in East Java, supporting industrial needs with 15 kilotonnes of green hydrogen annually. This initiative not only promotes Indonesia's energy transition but also enhances sustainable food security and decarbonization efforts.
