PFC Emission Reductions at PT. Indonesia Asahan Aluminium (PT. INALUM) Kuala Tanjung - CER Conversion
Credits transferred from approved GHG program · Kabupaten Batubara, Sumetera Utara · — ha
CDM project #3019 at PT INALUM's state-owned aluminium smelter in Kuala Tanjung, North Sumatra, cutting perfluorocarbon (PFC) emissions by mitigating anode effects under methodology AM0030. Registered June 2010 with South Pole as Annex-I partner, the project's fixed 10-year crediting period ran 2010-2020, generating CERs from ~78,041 tCO2e of annual reductions.

Registered June 2010 with South Pole as Annex-I partner, the project's fixed 10-year crediting period ran 2010-2020, generating CERs from ~78,041 tCO2e of annual reductions.
Who operates PFC Emission Reductions at PT. Indonesia Asahan Aluminium (PT. INALUM) Kuala Tanjung - CER Conversion?
PFC Emission Reductions at PT. Indonesia Asahan Aluminium (PT. INALUM) Kuala Tanjung - CER Conversion is developed by Credits transferred from approved GHG program and listed on Verra VCS1750.
What is its integrity score?
66 / 100. Driven down by validation recency (50) and supported by community flags (75).
Why is it notable?
Latest news. No project-specific news post-2020 crediting-period end was found. On 24 July 2025 MIND ID announced INALUM's 2025-2029 plan to scale aluminium capacity from 275 to 900 ktpa (new Mempawah smelter, SGAR alumina Phase I/II), framed as low-carbon aluminium build-out but with no direct reference to PFC credits or AM0030 .

Analyst briefing
Activities & scale The project modifies process control and anode-effect management at INALUM's Kuala Tanjung primary aluminium smelter (then ~250-275 ktpa capacity) to reduce the frequency, duration and overvoltage of anode effects that emit CF4 and C2F6 1. Expected annual reductions were 78,041 tCO2e, classified as a large-scale Scope 9 (metal production) CDM activity.
