Apurva Kempinski Bali has recently teamed up with Nissan, Bank Central Asia, and Danone Indonesia to offer guests an eco-friendly transportation option.

As part of their sustainability initiatives, the 475-room luxury resort has introduced Nissan Leaf electric vehicles for guests to explore the Nusa Dua area and local attractions, contributing to a reduction in carbon emissions.

The resort has also installed a solar panel charging hub, which is the only one of its kind in Bali, developed in collaboration with Bank Central Asia and Danone Indonesia.

Vincent Guironnet, GM of Apurva Kempinski Bali, said: "“We have a big vision in terms of sustainability, and in order for us to achieve our goals, it is important for us to find and work together with those who share our vision. We hope that our partnership with Nissan, Bank Central Asia and Danone Indonesia will further strengthen our sustainability strategies, and we are looking forward to more development in the future.”

In addition to the electric vehicles and solar panel charging hub, Apurva Kempinski Bali offers sustainable wedding packages and uses its rooftop space to grow various types of greens, creating a more sustainable kitchen in the resort.

Bank Central Asia has also carried out a waste management project resulting in a reduction of CO2 emissions by 348.9 tons, which is equivalent to preserving in excess of 29,000 trees.

Danone Indonesia has similarly carried out various programs and sustainable business practices in nature conservation, community empowerment, and internal companies, as well as involving various sectors in supporting the government to achieve targets for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Indonesia.
