“CREC and Pertamina NRE will also jointly explore renewable energy (RE) investments in Indonesia, including the potential development of solar and wind power projects and collaboration related to carbon credit development and trading,” CREC said.

The deal with Pertamina NRE entails the subscription of a 20 percent interest in CREC valued at $120 million. This is the Indonesian firm’s first investment into the Philippines.

Through this strategic collaboration, the Citicore subsidiary said Pertamina NRE will be able to tap into its expertise in project development and engineering, procurement and construction.
