PT Pertamina (Persero) is collaborating with the West Java Provincial\nGovernment to process waste into low-carbon hydrogen, biomethane, and\nbiofuel. This initiative represents a significant step towards building\nan integrated hydrogen ecosystem and resolving waste management\nchallenges in West Java.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis cooperation covers various fields, one of which is waste\nmanagement at the Sarim\u0441\u0442\u044c\u044e landfill. The processed waste will produce\nbiogas, which will then be developed into hydrogen and biomethane,\u201d\nstated Emma Sri Martini, Director of Strategy, Portfolio, and Business\nDevelopment at PT Pertamina (Persero), in a statement confirmed in\nJakarta on Friday.<\/p>\n
Emma noted that a primary focus of the collaboration is the plan to\nutilise methane derived from waste at the Sarimukti landfill in West\nBandung Regency. Through this partnership, biogas from the waste will be\npurified into biomethane and subsequently processed into hydrogen. This\neffort is part of the broader development of a waste-to-energy\necosystem.<\/p>\n
According to Emma, the project development represents a synergy\nwithin the Pertamina Group to create an integrated clean energy value\nchain from upstream to downstream. \u201cThis programme will be executed\nalongside Pertamina\u2019s New & Renewable Energy (PNRE) sub-holding and\nthe Gas sub-holding. Each entity will have specific roles and\nresponsibilities, ranging from feedstock provision and processing to\ninfrastructure development, distribution, and product\ncommercialisation,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Emma further explained that the collaboration also involves\ninternational partners, including Hyundai from South Korea, as part of\nthe effort to accelerate the development of low-carbon energy\ntechnology. \u201cWe view this as an excellent collaboration between\nPertamina, the West Java Provincial Government, and international\npartners in developing low-carbon energy, specifically hydrogen. We hope\nthis programme will serve as a pilot for building a hydrogen ecosystem\nin Indonesia. If the implementation is successful, this business model\ncan be expanded and replicated in various other regions,\u201d she\nconcluded.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/pertamina-collaborates-with-west-java-provincial-government-to-convert-waste-into-hydrogen-1785496042", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
