Construction begins on Karangkates floating solar plant at Indonesian dam

Physical construction has begun on the 100MWac Karangkates Floating Solar Power Plant at Karangkates Dam in Indonesia, a joint initiative between PLN Nusantara Renewables, GD Power Hongkong, and PJT I. This project integrates renewable energy with water infrastructure to optimize dam assets without compromising safety and water management functions. By utilizing floating solar technology on reservoirs, the project helps avoid land acquisition and reduce surface water evaporation, contributing to Indonesia's renewable energy expansion under the national Net Zero Emissions target.
