Jakarta, 30 October 2025 – Jakarta State University (UNJ) has taken a significant step towards sustainability by meeting their renewable energy targets, as revealed in the TIGR (Tradable Instrument for Global Renewables) Registration Termination Certificate issued by APX, Inc. This document confirms that 776 Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) have been terminated in the name of JAKARTA STATE UNIVERSITY on June 20, 2025.

This REC termination was carried out with a specific objective: "Meeting the Company's Renewable Energy Targets." The REC comes from the Bakaru Hydroelectric Power Plant (PLTA), a Run-of-River Hydroelectric Project. The associated TIGR serial numbers are TIGR-1287-ID-SN-04-2025-65748-69254 to 70029. PT PLN (Persero) is listed as the terminating TIGR Account Holder.

Although the document does not explicitly detail the total electricity consumption required by UNJ, the termination of 776 RECs can be interpreted as representing a portion of the university's electricity consumption which is now supplied from renewable energy sources. Each REC is generally equivalent to one megawatt-hour (MWh) of electricity generated from renewable sources. Therefore, 776 REC means that UNJ has secured 776 MWh of renewable energy.

Without exact data regarding UNJ's total annual electricity consumption, it is difficult to measure the exact percentage of UNJ's electricity needs that are currently met by renewable energy. However, the figure of 776 MWh is a significant figure, showing UNJ's strong commitment to reducing dependence on fossil energy and switching to cleaner sources.

This step is in line with UNJ's vision to become a university that is innovative and relevant to global challenges, including environmental sustainability. It is hoped that this effort will inspire the academic community and wider society to care more about the use of renewable energy and encourage other institutions to also review and report their total electricity consumption so they can measure the impact of renewable energy procurement. UNJ has set an important example in reporting and commitment to renewable energy, and the next step is to integrate this information with overall electricity consumption data to provide a more complete picture of the university's carbon footprint.
