PT Cipta Kridatama (CK), a subsidiary of PT ABM Investama, has partnered with SUN Energy to launch Indonesia’s first and largest Containerized Battery Energy Storage System (CBESS) for solar power. Installed in Jambi, the system features a 643.8 kWp solar energy setup with a 1 MWh battery housed in a 20-foot container. Designed to power remote mining operations, the off-grid system ensures a stable energy supply, reducing CK’s carbon footprint while supporting its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals. The project was completed in four months and provides electricity for operational facilities, including housing, a sports hall, a mosque, and a clinic.
Company leaders emphasized the initiative’s role in advancing green energy within Indonesia’s industrial sector. The system will generate 849,000 kWh of clean energy annually, cutting CO2 emissions by 660 tons—the equivalent of planting over 10,900 trees.
