JAKARTA - Industrial gas company Samator Group is boosting the development of new and renewable energy (EBT). One of them, through research cooperation (RnD) to realize a more environmentally friendly energy transition.
"We started investing with human capital (HR)," said Samator Group President Director Rachmat Harsono quoting Antara.
For this reason, his party cooperates with five strategic partners both at home and abroad to establish potential cooperation in several fields including the development of solar panels, liquefied natural gas, hydrogen and plans to form a joint venture to encourage the level of domestic components (TKDN) above 60 percent.
He believes that after research and development, investment can be made in the next two to three years while observing market demand.
Rachmat assessed that the potential for the use of clean energy both nationally and globally is increasing as the world pays attention to reducing carbon emissions.
"Maybe in the next 10 years, coal will not be replaced, it will still exist but how to reduce emission levels by decarbonizing, so it is balanced with EBT," he added.
Through these efforts, it is hoped that it can support the government's efforts in decarbonization, considering that Indonesia is the contributor to greenhouse gas emissions number eight in the world based on a McKinsey report entitled Indonesia's green powerhouse Promise: ten bold moves.
