TASPEN Launches 'Green Miles' Programme to Encourage Low-Emission Commuting
Jakarta (ANTARA) - PT TASPEN (Persero) has launched the Green Miles Programme to encourage employees to make a habit of using low-emission transport modes, as part of efforts to reduce its carbon footprint and strengthen the application of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles within the company.
TASPEN Corporate Secretary Henra said the programme is a concrete step by the company to involve employees in contributing to carbon emission reduction through more environmentally friendly commuting habits.
“The Green Miles Programme is a tangible step by the company to encourage active employee participation in supporting carbon emission reduction and to build a workplace culture that cares more about the environment. TASPEN believes that simple habits practised consistently can contribute to a better Earth,” Henra said in a written statement in Jakarta on Monday.
Launched to coincide with Global Energy Independence Day on 10 July 2026, the programme invites employees to choose more sustainable transport modes, such as walking, cycling, using public transport, or sharing vehicles.
The Green Miles Programme runs from 10 July to 9 October 2026. During this period, employees are asked to document their eco-friendly journeys and upload them via a platform provided by the company.
According to TASPEN, the programme is part of the company’s strategy to strengthen ESG implementation while building a sustainable work culture.
Beyond the Green Miles Programme, TASPEN is also running a number of other sustainability initiatives, including the installation of 20 kilowatt-peak (kWp) solar panels, the adoption of a cloud-based Energy Management System (EMS) at the Jakarta I Branch Office, the development of wastewater treatment facilities (IPAL), raising targets for the use of electric operational vehicles, and the planting of tens of thousands of trees across various regions of Indonesia.
The company stated that these various programmes form part of efforts to strengthen a culture of sustainability and support the company’s transformation in line with sustainable development goals, energy resilience, and environmental conservation.
