Tangerang, July 12, 2023 – Pertamina is fully committed to supporting the Net Zero Emission (NZE) target for 2060 and the energy transition by the Indonesian Government. As tangible proof of its actions, Pertamina took part in The 11th Indonesia Energi Baru, Terbarukan & Konservasi Energi Conference & Exhibition (EBTKE ConEx), held at ICE BSD City, Tangerang, Banten, on Wednesday, July 12, 2023.

Present at this event were the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), Arifin Tasrif, the Director of Logistics & Infrastructure at Pertamina, Alfian Nasution, along with the Pertamina Subholding Directors.

Under the theme "From Commitment to Action: Safeguarding Energy Transition Towards Indonesia's Net Zero Emissions 2060," Pertamina showcased various programs and company innovations aimed at achieving the NZE target for 2060 through energy transition and the New and Renewable Energy (NRE) development.

At the booth, Pertamina presented clean energy and NRE development innovations from all Subholdings, as well as the company's decarbonization programs. During this event, Pertamina also showcased innovative vehicles utilizing hydrogen energy as an alternative clean energy source in collaboration with Toyota.

During this three-day event, the Pertamina Group signed several Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) as a synergy form within the Pertamina group and with external strategic partners. These collaborations are intended to support clean energy and EBT development.

Minister of ESDM, Arifin Tasrif, stated that energy transition can be achieved by utilizing clean and renewable energy sources available within the country, as Indonesia possesses significant potential. He emphasized that these resources, with the right technological support, can be utilized to achieve the 2060 NZE target.

Arifin mentioned that the Indonesian Government continues to promote the NRE acceleration integration into the energy mix through rolled-out policies. "With the support of the Government, SOEs, and other businesses, InshaAllah, we can implement all," Arifin Tasrif expressed.

He hoped through this event, awareness regarding energy transition and NRE use can be disseminated to the public. "I appreciate the stakeholders and businesses that continue to support Indonesia in the progress of NRE development in our infrastructure," Arifin Tasrif concluded.

Meanwhile, the CEO of PT Pertamina New & Renewable Energy (Pertamina NRE), Dannif Danusaputro, explained that Pertamina strives to maintain the conventional energy supply resilience while actively moving towards NZE 2060 by decarbonizing existing Pertamina businesses.

Dannif explained that through Pertamina NRE Subholding, Pertamina is also making disruptive efforts and developing new businesses focused on NRE products.

"So, essentially, we continue to produce conventional energy products but reduce their emissions. Pertamina also continues to create new businesses in the field of NRE," Dannif added.

Furthermore, Dannif expressed optimism that through collaboration with the Government and other stakeholders, Pertamina can develop existing and new businesses for a better future.

"We believe that through collaborative efforts and considering the potentials, we have a future ahead of us," Dannif concluded.
