ESSA Is Preparing To Build A Facility For Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Manufacturing

A publicly listed company in the Energy and Chemical sector has officially announced its entry into the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production business through its subsidiaries, PT ESSA Sustainable Indonesia (“ESI”) and PT ESSA SAF Makmur (“ESM”). This move aligns with ESSA's commitment to advance Indonesia in providing eco-friendly energy solutions.

As the global aviation industry faces increasing pressure to cut rising CO2 emissions, ESSA's SAF project comes at a crucial time, highlighting its role as a catalyst for change in this evolving sector.

With more airlines and countries seeking sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels to achieve net-zero emission targets, ESSA is positioned as a key player in offering greener and more environmentally friendly fuel solutions for the industry.

"By leveraging our expertise in energy and chemicals, we are placing ESSA at the forefront of the eco-friendly aviation revolution, aiming to be one of the first ISCC CORSIA certified plants in Indonesia," said Kanishk Laroya, President Director and CEO of ESSA.

ESM will be a state-of-the-art greenfield manufacturing facility located in Central Java, with a production capacity of approximately 150,000 MT per year. Commercial operations are expected to begin between Q4 2027 and Q1 2028. With a strong track record of innovation and a commitment to sustainability, ESSA continues to drive positive change and transformation in Indonesia's energy and manufacturing sectors.
