Energi Terbarukan untuk Pabrik Tekstil: Langkah Berani Menuju Net Zero

27 Jul 2025

Leveraging Green Finance Momentum

On July 11, 2025, Indonesia’s sovereign wealth fund Danantara and the Japan Bank for International Cooperation signed an MoU to co-finance renewable energy, water management, and power transmission projects in Indonesia (Reuters). This partnership paves the way for textile mills, including Danarmas, to secure affordable financing for solar PV and wind turbine installations.

 

Benefits of Green Power for the Textile Sector

  1. Carbon Emission Reduction
    Replacing fossil fuels with solar/wind power can cut a mill’s CO₂ footprint by up to 60%.
  2. Operational Cost Stability
    Competitive renewable energy prices mitigate PLN electricity tariff volatility.
  3. Export Market Edge
    “Made with green energy” labels boost appeal in Europe and the US amid looming carbon border adjustments.

 

Implementation Roadmap for Textile Mills

  • Energy Audits
    Map peak power usage and efficiency gaps across spinning and weaving lines.
  • Strategic Alliances
    Engage EPC firms for turnkey installation and O&M services.
  • Smart Grid Integration
    Deploy microgrids and energy storage systems to guarantee reliable supply.

 

Danarmas’ Green Milestones

As an ISO 9001 textile manufacturer, Danarmas can:

  • Tap into low‑interest green credits from JBIC/World Bank
  • Elevate its brand as a green factory pioneer in Southeast Asia
  • Attract ESG investors and unlock new markets in the EU and US

 

Road to Net Zero Emission

By harnessing the Danantara–JBIC green financing vehicle, Indonesia’s textile mills gain a clear pathway to net zero. Transitioning to renewable energy not only slashes costs and emissions but also cements Danarmas’ role as an industry innovator in sustainable manufacturing.
