In his remarks, Acting Director General of Electricity, Tri Winarno, emphasized that electrical safety is the key foundation for maintaining the reliability of the national electricity supply while supporting efforts to accelerate the transition toward sustainable clean energy. He also expressed appreciation to the business entities receiving awards for their commitment to consistently implementing electrical safety systems, and he hopes that this recognition will motivate others to enhance safety standards in their respective fields.

“Electrical safety is not merely a compliance requirement but must become a safety culture that continues to be enhanced across all sectors of the electricity industry. We also hope that the implementation of electrical safety becomes an integral part of the transformation toward a more reliable, efficient, and environmentally friendly electricity sector,” said Tri Winarno.

Batang Power Plant was deemed successful in demonstrating significant improvements in safety governance, supervisory effectiveness, emergency preparedness, and risk control implementation within the power plant environment.
