JAKARTA - Three subsidiaries of the Sentosa Laju Sejahtera (SLS) Group, which are involved in mining and leasing mining contractor services, are committed to carrying out environmentally friendly business transformations.

The company's representatives explained concrete steps in supporting the Indonesian government's target of achieving net zero emissions by 2060, both through the use of electric vehicles (EVs) and green infrastructure development.

The three subsidiaries are PT Tractor Teknik Nusantara or Traktek, which focuses on heavy equipment, lubricants, generators and spare parts and spare parts; PT Artha Satya Karunia (ASK), which specializes in the logistics and transportation sector as well as PT Sentosa Welindo Group (SWG) which is engaged in general contractor and engineering engineering.

"Business children such as Tektek have started preparing to become EV-based mining vehicle dealers, then ASK has started to explore the potentials related to EV-based transportation and logistics, and we have planned to adopt EV trucks," said PT Teknik Nusantara Director Dian Sanjaya Guudtralim as reported by ANTARA, Monday, September 30.

He said his party provides alternative new generation of electric vehicles that are effective and competitive and can reduce carbon footprint.

Meanwhile, President Director of PT Artha Satya Karunia (ASK) Chedie Putra Hardiyanto said, ASK had made an environmentally friendly business breakthrough.

One of them is by cooperating with Electrum in developing the battery exchange system on EV motorcycles.

"ASK also implements vehicle-to-trip (V2G) technology, which allows electric vehicles to function as energy storage and flow electricity back to the power grid," he said.

President Director of PT Sentosa Welindo Group (SWG) Tiarvando said, SWG also applies green business by building environmentally friendly infrastructure, both in mining areas, and a number of projects it works on, such as in the capital city of Nusantara (IKN), East Kalimantan.

"We are preparing commercial areas in IKN where the concepts of building and infrastructure are green, including using solar panels and hydropower plants to meet electricity needs and using building materials with low energy consumption and carbon footprint," said Tiarvando.

The three companies recognize that adopting green businesses has many challenges, ranging from funding problems, limited supporting infrastructure to concerns regarding the performance and reliability of electric vehicles in extreme mining conditions.

However, the SLS Group can overcome these obstacles by cooperating with technology providers and the government.

"Green Mobility and It's Infrastructure has great potential to change the mining industry's practices to be more sustainable," Tiarvando said.

Meanwhile, in the future, companies will increasingly focus on integrating renewable energy in their operations, as well as establishing partnerships with energy companies and collaborating with start-up companies in developing new technologies to be more efficient.

"Traktek dan SWG juga akan menyediakan solusi second life battery EV menjadi pengganti genset sebagai power diver/generator (powerwall)," ujar Dian Sanjaya Guudtralim.
