PT Paiton Energy and PT POMI have reaffirmed their steadfast commitment to supporting sustainable development in Indonesia throughout 2025.
Under the flagship Paiton bErsiNERGY initiative—which adopts a Pentahelix collaboration model involving government, community, academia, business, and media—the Company’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs have consistently exceeded regulatory standards. This synergy has delivered tangible impacts ranging from environmental conservation to community economic empowerment, evidenced by a series of prestigious awards earned throughout the year. This commitment underscores PT Paiton Energy’s strategic role as a responsible energy provider dedicated to environmental stewardship and societal well-being.
Environmental Innovation and Climate Change Mitigation
In 2025, PT Paiton Energy and PT POMI implemented several high-impact environmental programs. These efforts earned national recognition through the 2024 Green PROPER Award from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry, validating the Company’s consistency in “beyond compliance” environmental management, including energy efficiency, emission control, water conservation, and biodiversity protection.
Key environmental milestones include:
- Social Forestry & Reforestation: In collaboration with the Ministry of Forestry, the Company developed social forestry programs to increase land cover and alleviate poverty. By mid-2025, over 25,000 Gamal seedlings were planted in Special Management Forest Areas (KHDPK), serving as both carbon sinks and livestock feed for local farmers.
- Long-term Conservation: Continued restoration of the Selobanteng Community Forest in Situbondo. Since 2009, over 200,000 Teak and Gamelina trees have been planted, with an additional 13,600 Multi-Purpose Tree Species (MPTS) added in 2025.
- Watershed Protection: Partnering with the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI), the Company planted 4,500 fruit and decorative trees (Durian, Mangosteen, and Tabebuia) in the upstream areas of Ranu Segaran and Ranu Merah to strengthen ecosystem resilience and prevent downstream flooding.
Community Empowerment and the Circular Economy
PT Paiton Energy strengthened its multi-stakeholder ties by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Probolinggo Regency Government. This strategic framework accelerates development in education, healthcare, economy, environment, and tourism.
Practical implementations of this synergy include:
- FABA Utilization: Supporting the “7 Ranu Ecotourism Festival” by providing 160,000 eco-paving blocks and 600 tons of Fly Ash and Bottom Ash (FABA). This initiative transforms industrial by-products into sustainable construction materials, fostering a circular economy.
