But Alhamdulillah (Thanks God), we\u2019re now able to produce the palm biomass pellets from the \u2018tankos\u2019 and can be used for co-firing in power generation,\u201d said Trois.<\/p>\n<p>Trois hopes that the innovation can be applied in the 52 coal-fired power plants (PLTU) owned by PT PLN, which have been mandated for the implementation of co-firing projects.<\/p>\n<p>PLN Energi Primer Indonesia\u2019s (PLN EPI) President Director Iwan Agung Firstantara said that they are committed to fully supporting the government\u2019s plan to reach the target of co-firing projects at 10.2 million tons of biomass pellets by the year 2025.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the substitution of coal to the biomass is a strategic project for PLN in generating electricity for the public and supporting the green efforts to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dBesides reducing our reliance on coal, this green step can become one of our ways to cut carbon emissions to realize the NZE in 2060. By applying biomass co-firing, PLN can produce clean energy with minimal cost,\u201d said Iwan.<\/p>\n<p>During the same occasion,\u00a0 PLN EPI and PT Elektrika Konstruksi Nusantara (EKN) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on the use of the empty oil palm fruit bunches for biomass co-firing in PLTU Bengkayang in Sambas regency, West Kalimantan province.<\/p>\n<p>Both companies have agreed to directly involve the people of Sambas regency in the process of the biomass pellet production.
