Early Traces of Indonesian Solar Energy: The First Solar Module in Len in 1998

PT Len Industri (Persero), as the parent company of PT Surya Energi Indotama, has played an important role in the history of solar energy technology development in Indonesia.

Len's commitment to national energy independence began in 1986, when the company introduced Solar Home System (SHS) technology to reach remote areas that had not been connected to conventional electricity. This initiative became the starting point for Len's real contribution to providing clean energy for the community.

Len's journey continued significantly in 1998, with the success of creating a solar module prototype. This solar module is the result of collaboration between Len, Solarex Australia, and the Agency for the Assessment and Application of Technology (BPPT). The solar module became the initial milestone in the development of photovoltaic technology in the country.

Not stopping at the prototype stage, Len developed a locally produced solar module with an initial capacity of 1.2 MW per year in the same year. Along with the development of technology and market needs, production capacity has continued to increase

• 10 MW per year in 2009

• 46 MW per year in 2015

• 71 MW per year in 2020

A major achievement was achieved in 2016, when Len succeeded in becoming the first largest solar panel project implementer in Indonesia, namely the IPP PLTS Oelpuah Kupang with a capacity of 5 MW. This project is a symbol of the clean energy transition and the revival of the national photovoltaic industry.

Over time, Len also continues to develop production facilities and obtain various national and international quality certifications, strengthening Len's position as a Pioneer Solar PV Manufacturing in Indonesia.

Now, the solar panel production facility has been acquired by PT Surya Energi Indotama as a subsidiary, to continue the development and industrialization of solar energy technology in a more focused and integrated manner.

"From one small solar module in 1998, to a big step for the country"

Through PT Surya Energi Indotama, we continue to be committed to providing reliable and sustainable renewable energy solutions for all Indonesian people**

Switzerland Becomes First Country to Install Solar Panels on Railway Tracks

Clean energy innovation now comes from Switzerland. The country known for its precise transportation system has once again made a breakthrough through a pilot project of solar panels on active railway tracks. This project was initiated by Sun-Ways, a Swiss startup that focuses on the development of renewable energy technology.

Different from solar energy projects in general which require special land or building roofs, Sun-Ways presents a unique solution, namely installing solar panels directly between active railway tracks.

The technology used also allows trains to continue operating without interruption, opening up great opportunities for the utilization of infrastructure space that has not been optimally utilized.

"This will be the first time that solar panels have been installed on railway tracks that are passed by trains," said Joseph Scuderi, CEO of Sun-Ways, quoted from ESG News.

In the pilot phase, 48 solar panels will be installed along 100 meters of rail, which is located in the Neuchâtel region, western Switzerland. Where the panels will be installed using a specially designed train by Swiss rail maintenance company Sceuchzer, which is capable of installing up to 1.000 square meters of panels per day.

The results of this power will not be channeled to the railway system due to the complexity of current railway operations. The system is expected to be channeled to local homes because it is estimated to be able to produce 16.000 kWh of electricity per year.

Global Potential

The Sun-Ways project offers a smart solution, using existing infrastructure to add renewable energy capacity, without putting pressure on open space or green spaces.

The potential for this technology is huge. Imagine if just a small portion of the track was equipped with solar panels, the world would have a significant additional source of clean energy, without harming the environment.

And if this project is successful and widely replicated, it is possible that we will see railways around the world become not just travel routes, but clean energy routes of the future. Cool, right?
