Indo Kordsa and TotalEnergies celebrated the launch of the solar system installed on the roof of industrial buildings in Indonesia.

An official inauguration

Indo Kordsa and TotalEnergies launched the solar system in Citeureup, in the city of Bogor, Indonesia. Indo Kordsa is one of the leading suppliers of tire reinforcement materials in Southeast Asia. In addition, it is the first tire cord manufacturer to use solar energy in Southeast Asia.

The opening ceremony was attended by representatives of Indo Kordsa and TotalEnergies. In addition, representatives from the Department of Energy and Mineral Resources and the Governor of West Java were present. In addition, the company aims to reduce its emissions by 3% per year through the use of renewable energy.

An industrial commitment

Indo Kordsa is committed to becoming a Net Zero company in 2050 by reducing its emissions. In particular, the company is committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions to combat climate change. Thus, the company was looking for a partner to install its rooftop photovoltaic system in order to reduce its carbon footprint.

Indo Kordsa chose TotalEnergies known for its solid technical experience in the deployment of renewable energy solutions. The system installed on the company’s roof includes 8800 modules. Thus the photovoltaic system is able to reach 4.8MWp allowing to generate about 6800MWh per year.

A central position

Ömür Menteş, president and director of PT Indo Kordsa Tbk, states:

“This record is the largest among other Kordsa projects in 6 countries and also the largest in Bogor district. With these solar panels, PT Indo Kordsa Tbk has also become the first textile industry in Indonesia to use rooftop solar panels.”

In addition, as part of the agreement, TotalEnergies finances, installs and operates the solar photovoltaic system. Thus, Indo Kordsa will pay monthly for 20 years the electricity produced, without any initial investment.

Gavin Adda, head of distributed generation for TotalEnergies Renewables in Asia, said:

“TotalEnergies offers our customers peace of mind from a technical, financial and business perspective. We are delighted to support Indo Kordsa in its sustainability journey to reduce its carbon footprint.”

In Asia, TotalEnergies Renewables Distributed Generation is one of the most important players. The French company has a portfolio of more than 600MW of projects under development. In addition, the company is present in nine countries.
