Since 2011, all biomass residue from our palm oil
mill in Indonesia is either converted into fertiliser/
compost or clean energy. In the case of the latter,
mesocarp fibre, palm shell and shredded EFB are
utilised as feedstock for the steam boiler and the steam
generated therefrom will then fuel the steam turbine
in the cogeneration plant. The impact of the utilization
of biomass as renewable energy has been significant.
86% of the electricity and heat energy generated
from the cogeneration plant is used to power the oil
mill’s operations. The excess energy is used to power
worker’s quarters, government facilities, schools and
mosque. In FYE2019 6,216,230 kWh of electricity was
generated (FYE2018: 6,571,920 kWh).
Emission
W
e emit GHG both directly and indirectly. Our
largest impact in terms of emissions is direct
(scope 1) emissions mainly from our businesses’
use of petrol, gas and diesel. Our main source of
indirect (scope 2) emissions is electricity used in our
manufacturing and processing operations.
Overall the Group’s total emission was higher in
FYE2018 by 37.1% mainly due to the
Plantation
Division’s
land development activities of new estates
that took place.
