As part of its new vision, Engineered to Outrun, ABB Motion is focused on providing dynamic solutions designed not only to meet the immediate needs of industries but to help them stay ahead of evolving sustainability challenges. This vision ensures that ABB's innovations will continue to drive Indonesia’s industrial transformation, positioning the country as a leader in sustainable industrial practices. “We recognize the urgent need for sustainable industrial practices, and ABB is dedicated to driving this change through advanced technological solutions,” said Chen-Kang Tan, Vice President, Head of Local Business Area, Motion, ABB Indonesia.
“Our collaborations with local businesses are delivering measurable results aligned with Indonesia's carbon-reduction targets, and our new vision, Engineered to Outrun, reinforces our commitment to providing the most advanced solutions to ensure long-term sustainability.” Boosting Energy Efficiency, Supporting Industrial Growth ABB’s leadership in energy efficiency is evident through its ongoing partnerships that aim to optimize energy use across key industries. Through strategic initiatives, ABB is helping Indonesia meet its ambitious goal to reduce carbon emissions by 31.89% by 2030, aiming to reduce 358 million tons of CO₂.[1]
ABB is actively supporting this goal through strategic initiatives that enhance energy efficiency and promote sustainable practices across various industries. For instance, ABB's collaboration with the Indonesian Society for Conservation and Energy Efficiency (MASKEEI) focuses on promoting energy conservation within the industrial sector.
Strategic Partnerships and Industry Leadership ABB’s contribution to Indonesia’s industrial growth is also underscored by other notable collaborations. For instance, ABB’s partnership with PT. Equiport Inti Indonesia, a subsidiary of Pelabuhan Indonesia (Pelindo), modernized container cranes at Sorong Port in West Papua, improving crane performance, operational efficiency, and sustainability. Similarly, the company’s partnership with PT Berkah Industri Mesin Angkat (BIMA) through the MoU signing for capacity development collaboration supports the growth of Indonesia’s port management system to enhance the efficiency of Indonesia’s port sector through ABB's digital expertise.
In 2024, ABB solidified its commitment to advancing energy efficiency in Indonesia through a strategic partnership with SKF Industrial Indonesia. This collaboration focuses on enhancing automation and energy-efficient solutions across industries, including manufacturing, power, mining, and transportation. By combining ABB’s expertise in electrification with SKF’s leadership in industrial solutions, the partnership aims to boost operational performance and improve Indonesia’s competitiveness on the global stage.
Innovation and Sustainability from Formula E to Industry ABB’s involvement in Formula E demonstrates the company’s leadership in sustainable mobility and electrification. The innovations developed in the motorsport series, such as advanced battery technology and energy efficiency strategies, are directly influencing ABB’s industrial solutions, helping industries adopt decarbonized technologies that drive emissions reductions and sustainability. “Formula E serves as a testing ground for technologies that can revolutionize industries,” Tan explained.
“The energy efficiency and electrification lessons learned from the series are being applied to sectors striving to lower their carbon footprints.” Investing in the Future of Indonesia, ABB’s continued investment in Indonesia’s energy and industrial sectors is pivotal to the country’s shift toward a sustainable industrial landscape. With a focus on digitalization, electrification, and automation, ABB is enabling industries to become more energy-efficient, globally competitive, and sustainable. “We are committed to investing in technologies that make industries more energy-efficient and globally competitive,” Tan added.
“Our collaborations with local industries and governments are key to achieving a sustainable future for Indonesia.” As the adoption of AI and digital technologies transforms industrial processes, ABB’s smart sensor technology and digital platforms are optimizing performance, reducing downtime, and contributing to long-term sustainability goals. Shaping Indonesia’s Sustainable Future With a clear focus on innovation and collaboration, ABB Motion is helping shape the future of Indonesia’s industries.
Through its advanced technologies, strategic partnerships, and commitment to decarbonization, ABB is supporting Indonesia's net-zero ambitions and driving the country's industrial sector toward a more sustainable, energy-efficient, and competitive future. The new Engineered to Outrun vision positions ABB as a forward-thinking partner in Indonesia's industrial evolution, empowering the nation to lead in both sustainability and industrial performance.
