The Sipansihaporas project is located in North Sumatra Province to the south of Medan city, the capital city of the region. Through harnessing the endless flowing waters of the Sibuluan River and it’s three tributaries, the project generates clean renewable electricity, sending around 214,000 MWh to the Sumatra grid each year.
In addition to reducing GHG emissions by providing an alternative to fossil fuel usage, the project boosts the local economy. During both construction and operation phases, various kinds of mechanical work are required, providing employment to local workers on a regular and permanent basis. The project delivers training sessions to build skills of the local staff, ensuring they are safe when working. Creating these opportunities is an important factor in alleviating poverty and slowing migration from the region.
