PT KIS Biofuel Indonesia has commenced commercial operations on the BioCNG/Biomethane plant in the North Sumatra province of Indonesia. The plant is a part of the plan to build 25 Bio-CNG plants with a capacity of 15,500 M3 BioCNG per day each which is expected to reduce 3.7 million tons of CO2 annually and generate 3.7 million carbon credits annually.
The Government of Indonesia has also prepared a Grand National Energy Strategy (GSEN) to reduce dependence on fossil energy consumption. Additionally, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources is also collaborating with partners to develop the BioCNG Project through plant construction projects, pre-feasibility studies, economic studies, trade policy studies and industrial studies and raw materials.
