SEI Solar Trip: The Sensation of Exploring Solar Panels

Bandung (08/03/24), as a Renewable Energy company, PT Surya Energi Indotama (SEI) held an education trip program entitled SELOTIP – SEI Solar Trip. Carrying the theme Exploring the fun side of media communication, SEI invites you to explore the company's products that have been installed, especially in the Bandung city area.

The first route to be visited is the Alun-Alun Bandung area, where in the area a Solar Panel application in the form of a Solar Tree or solar-powered tree has been installed which functions to light up the park and can also support the aesthetic side for open spaces and the Solar Power Saung which can function as a place to take shelter and charge electronic devices. SEI President Director, I Made Sandika Dwiantara explained that the two solar panel applications are very suitable to be installed in the Alun-Alun area as a supporting facility for the facilities provided by the Bandung City Government, "SEI also supports the program of the Bandung City Government, especially related to public facilities, one of which is the Solar Tree product which has been installed as many as two units and Saung Tenaga Surya which has been installed a total of ten units spread across the Tegalega Park area, the Dalam Kaum area, Alun Alun and the Cikapundung area."

Recognized by the Head of the Parks and Decoration Development Section of the Bandung City Housing and Settlement Service, Dwi Priyono, that SEI's contribution has contributed to the success of the Bandung Caang Baranang program and of course his party hopes that the public facilities that SEI has built can be maintained together so that the benefits can be felt by the community considering that the location where the Solar Tree and Saung Tenaga Surya are installed is in the center of the city center.

SEI presented a different product application display by inviting the SEI Solar Trip group to see the Rooftop PLTS application with a capacity of 158 kWp in the Bandung Mineral, Coal and Geothermal Resources Center (PSDMBP) office building. "This Solar Rooftop application is one of the PLTS applications installed on the roof of an office building, with a larger capacity and also complex in terms of technical installation when compared to Solar Rooftop for residential. The Solar Rooftop owned by the PSDMBP office has been installed since 2016 and with easy maintenance, this system functions well and is able to provide significant savings for the company," explained the Director of Engineering and Operations, Fajar Miftahul Falah.

Explained by the Head of the Center for Mineral, Coal and Geothermal Resources, Ir. Agung Pribadi, with the installation of Solar Rooftop SEI, his party can save monthly electricity bills of up to 20-30% from normal bills before the Solar Rooftop was installed.

This travel route ends at the Solar Panel production building located in SEI's parent company, PT Len Industri (Persero). In this production area, SEI is able to produce a capacity of 71 MWp/Year.

With more than 20 years of experience, SEI solar panel manufacturing has been certified nationally and internationally and not only that, SEI products have met the SNI 61215 standard as a mandatory requirement for solar panels to be distributed in Indonesia or IEC 61215 and 61730 which support the safety, design and safety testing aspects.**
