CNKO incorporates sustainability considerations into its business planning and operational activities, taking into account economic, social and environmental aspects relevant to its coal trading activities and the operation of the Pangkalan Bun PLTU. The Company’s approach is supported by Sustainable Finance principles, risk management and performance monitoring, with initiatives developed across short, medium and long-term horizons and aligned with relevant Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Operational efficiency and environmental management form important parts of this approach. CNKO seeks to improve the efficient use of energy and other resources, maintain appropriate waste and environmental controls, and manage the potential impacts arising from its operations. In parallel, the Company maintains communication with communities, government, customers, business partners and other stakeholders to support the implementation of its social and environmental programs.
Sustainability-related risks are considered alongside the Company’s broader business risks. CNKO monitors changes in environmental and energy regulations, operational conditions and developments in the coal and energy sectors, while continuing to evaluate opportunities for process improvement, efficiency and community empowerment around its operational areas.
