PT PLN Energi Primer Indonesia (PLN EPI) has embarked on a transformative journey aimed at revolutionizing Indonesia’s energy landscape through the development of midstream liquefied natural gas (LNG) infrastructure in the Nusa Tenggara region.

Partnering with the Indokorea Gas Consortium, PLN EPI’s ambitious initiative heralds a new era of energy sustainability and economic prosperity for Indonesia’s eastern frontier.

The joint development agreement (JDA) signed between PLN EPI and the Indokorea Gas Consortium signifies a strategic alliance forged with the singular objective of advancing LNG infrastructure in Nusa Tenggara. This collaboration underscores PLN EPI’s unwavering commitment to spearheading Indonesia’s transition towards renewable energy sources and reducing reliance on fossil fuels.

By leveraging cutting-edge technologies and expertise, PLN EPI aims to realize its vision of establishing gasification projects for power generation in the Nusa Tenggara cluster. This initiative aligns with PLN’s broader strategy of accelerating renewable energy development, with the goal of sourcing 25 percent of electricity from gas-powered generators.
