"The land fisheries PLTS program is Inalum's collaboration with the surrounding community aimed at increasing social activities with a boost in renewable energy," he explained quoting Antara.

Mahyaruddin hopes that this program can continue to run, so that it can have a positive impact in the form of sustainability benefits for the local community.

The land fisheries PLTS program was carried out in Hamlet 1 Pantai History, Perupuk Village, Limapuli Pesisir District, Batu Bara Regency, North Sumatra.
