ACEN has expanded its renewable energy portfolio in Indonesia by joining a consortium with Star Energy Geothermal (Salak-Darajat) B.V. The partnership operates two of Indonesia’s leading geothermal power plants: the 271 MW Darajat and 377 MW Salak plants, both located in West Java.
These geothermal facilities harness the Earth’s natural heat to provide sustainable energy, reducing the region’s reliance on fossil fuels and helping drive the transition to clean energy in Southeast Asia.

Reforestation efforts through cultivation of productive plants Rice and coffee agrotourism thrives in Salak & Darajat Geothermal, opening livelihood opportunities for the Purwabakti and Tansumi community and increasing the yearly income of family-beneficiaries by 30% in 2022. Through cultivation of productive plants such as coffee, the agrotourism program encourages the community to also restore forest areas previously affected by illegal logging in Mount Halimun Salak National Park area.
Improving literary in rural communities We acknowledge that education brings out the community’s best potential as they dream of a better future. In helping fund STAR Energy’s literacy program, we also contribute to the improvement of Indonesia’s rural literary by supporting the Taman Pamekar Library, where students from rural communities can continue offline and online learning amid the pandemic.
Conservation efforts in Mt. Halimun Park, Indonesia In Indonesia, we continue to work closely with the administration of Mount Halimun Salak National Park, where our Salak & Darajat Geothermal project, a partnership with Star Energy Geothermal, is co-located. Our collaboration with the national park is geared toward monitoring flora and fauna health, increasing wildlife population, improvement of habitats through tree planting and establishment of wildlife corridors, conduct of conservation education programs and community-based ecotourism in nearby villages.
