Jakarta, Jun. 4, 2025 - DAS Solar, a leader in N-type PV technology, attended the SMM Solar & Energy Storage Industry Workshop in Indonesia, where the company's Sales Vice President of APMEA, Joey Zheng, participated a panel discussion titled “Empowering Indonesia's Green Transition: Solar Innovation in Mineral-Rich Landscapes”.

Indonesia's mining industry, a cornerstone of its economy due to abundant resources like nickel, copper, and gold, is increasingly embracing renewable energy solutions to enhance sustainability and reduce operational costs. The nation's vast solar potential, averaging around 4.8 kWh/m²/day, presents a significant opportunity for mining operations, especially those in remote areas, to integrate solar power into their energy mix. Notably, a 26.8 MW solar power plant at Batu Hijau mine in West Sumbawa has been implemented, demonstrating the feasibility and benefits of such initiatives.

During the panel discussion, Zheng highlighted Indonesia's unique opportunity to align its abundant mineral reserves with its vast solar potential. This rare synergy, he noted, lays the foundation for a closed-loop green economy, where clean energy powers mineral processing, and those same minerals contribute to building renewable infrastructure. Zheng further introduced DAS Solar's scenario-based solutions tailored for Indonesia's diverse geography and industrial landscape. Featuring advanced TOPCon 5.0 cell technology, the company's N-type modules deliver superior performance even in high-temperature, high-humidity environments. These modules are designed for long-term reliability, with low degradation rates and exceptional power output—key attributes for ensuring optimal energy generation in Southeast Asia's tropical climate.

Zheng also mentioned DAS Solar's innovative flexible mounting system, which is equally central to the company's offering, engineered for challenging terrains such as post-mining lands, uneven landscapes, and environmentally sensitive zones. This solution enables solar deployment without major ground disturbance, supporting land restoration and dual-use applications such as agri-PV. Engineered for complex topography, the system adapts seamlessly to slopes and rugged ground, helping reduce LCOE for customers. Meanwhile, its high-clearance design ensures that natural vegetation underneath the structure is preserved, allowing native plants to thrive without obstruction. By significantly reducing the number of ground piles required, the system minimizes soil disruption and protects delicate plant structures essential for post-mining zones or biodiversity-rich areas.

Drawing from experience in similar projects, Zheng referenced DAS Solar's 250 MW floating solar plant in Fuyang, China, built on a former coal mining subsidence area. The project generates 270 million kWh of clean electricity annually and incorporates fish farming beneath the modules, offering a replicable model for Indonesia's post-mining zones.

With a proven track record in innovation and adaptability, DAS Solar is well-positioned to support Indonesia in achieving its low-carbon ambitions by offering tailor-made solutions to decarbonize one of the country's most energy-intensive sectors. As Indonesia accelerates its transition toward a green economy, DAS Solar remains committed to building long-term local partnerships, advancing clean energy manufacturing, and enabling a circular, resource-efficient industrial ecosystem.
