Clark Energy expands Jenbacher territory

INNIO Jenbacher has extended Clarke Energy’s distribution territory of Jenbacher gas engines to Indonesia with a focus on independent power producers (IPP) and merchant power producers (MPP).

Clarke Energy offerings will focus primarily on natural gas applications for IPPs and MPPs in Indonesia. Additionally, in 2022, Clarke Energy can also offer Jenbacher natural gas engines with a “Ready for H2” option that allows the engines the capability to be readily converted from natural gas to up to 100% hydrogen operation. With this agreement, Clarke Energy is now the distributor of INNIO’s Jenbacher gas engines in 28 countries worldwide.

INNIO Jenbacher and Clarke Energy announce expansion of Jenbacher gas engines distribution to independent and merchant power producers in Indonesia.

“Power generation in Indonesia is critical to its growing economy and heavily depending on coal and oil-based fuels. As Indonesia moves to increase the share of renewable energy, providing Jenbacher natural gas-powered engines will help support decarbonization and grid reliability with fast starting and highly efficient assets,” said Carsten Dommermuth, vice president and general manager APAC at INNIO Jenbacher. “Our gas engine technologies help close supply-and-demand gaps, creating more power stability for power producers across Indonesia and helps reduce their carbon footprint. Clarke Energy will provide significant value in helping both independent and merchant power producers deliver much needed base-load power to the Indonesian grid.”

As a large archipelago, Indonesia is comprised of more than 17 000 islands. These islands stretch 5000 kilometers across Southeast Asia and Oceania. With an estimated population of more than 250 million people, Indonesia is the fourth most populous country in the world, the largest country in Southeast Asia, and the seventh-largest global economy in terms of purchasing power.
