Sembcorp to jointly develop 1GWp solar project in Indonesia

The company partnered with Indonesia’s PT PLN Batam and Suryagen.

Sembcorp Industries will jointly develop a solar and energy storage facility in Indonesia that can generate approximately 1 gigawatt-peak of renewable power.

The Singaporean company signed an exclusive joint development agreement to develop the facility in Indonesia’s Batam, Bintan, and Karimun (BBK) region.

The renewable power generated in the BBK facility was proposed to be transmitted to Singapore via subsea cables.

Aside from providing both markets with their energy needs, the project will also support about 1,000 direct and indirect jobs in Indonesia and Singapore during the construction phase.

Sembcorp CEO Wong Kim Yin said the project will mark another step in the company’s transaction “from brown to green.”

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
