PLN EPI Records 710 kg Carbon Emission Savings

Jakarta (ANTARA) - PT PLN Energi Primer Indonesia (PLN EPI) has recorded carbon emission savings of 710 kg CO2 equivalent through its “EPI Clean Energy Day” programme.

Corporate Secretary of PLN EPI, Mamit Setiawan, in a statement in Jakarta on Wednesday, said EPI Clean Energy Day is an effort to encourage employees to use low-emission transport modes as a tangible contribution to supporting the energy transition, reducing fuel consumption, and curbing the company’s carbon footprint.

The programme, held every Friday, is part of the implementation of directives from the government, the Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises, and PT PLN (Persero) to foster a culture of energy efficiency and carbon emission reduction in the workplace.

Based on the cumulative implementation report for the period 28 April to 3 July 2026, a total of 246 employees have participated in the programme.

From this participation, PLN EPI recorded emission savings of 710.87 kg CO2e, equivalent to savings of 292.3 litres of Pertamax fuel consumption, as well as transport cost efficiencies reaching Rp3.9 million.

“This achievement demonstrates employees’ growing awareness of adopting a low-carbon lifestyle while marking an initial step towards achieving the programme’s annual targets,” said Mamit.

He continued that the energy transition is realised not only through technology development and the provision of clean energy, but also through behavioural change by every individual in the company.

Mamit believes that simple behavioural changes carried out consistently will have a significant impact, both on the environment and on the company’s sustainability.

To ensure the programme’s benefits can be measured objectively, each participant records their travel history, which is then converted into data on carbon emission reductions, fuel consumption savings, and transport cost efficiency.

“This data-driven approach enables the company to monitor the programme’s effectiveness while continuously encouraging greater employee participation,” said Mamit.
