P.T. Toba Pulp Lestari Tbk — Indonesia
Pulp & Paper Mill in Indonesia. Approximate location 2.45272, 99.16068.
Pulp & Paper MillIndonesiaCO₂ estimate (modelled)
P.T. Toba Pulp Lestari Tbk is a pulp & paper mill in Indonesia. Its listed capacity is 194,590 t of pulp & paper. Pulp and paper mills generate their own steam for the pulping process and paper dryers, running large-scale boiler systems where heat loss directly reduces efficiency. By capacity it ranks #4 among 4 pulp & paper mills in Indonesia. It emits about 105,161 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.15% of the CO₂e from the 53 facilities in Indonesia that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-44375560.

In context: how this facility compares
At 194,590 t of pulp & paper, P.T. Toba Pulp Lestari Tbk is below the median pulp & paper mill in Indonesia (525,000 t of pulp & paper). Subsector: pulp-and-paper. As pulp & paper mill, it requires high process heat (typically 150–250°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Pulp and paper mills generate their own steam for the pulping process and paper dryers, running large-scale boiler systems where heat loss directly reduces efficiency.

Local climate
P.T. Toba Pulp Lestari Tbk sits in a tropical rainforest climate zone (Köppen Af), at 2.5°N in the northern hemisphere.
Köppen zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid).
Site climate & environmental severity
This site sits in a corrosive environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C4 — High), with humidity / wetness the leading environmental stress.
In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1273 W/m² to ambient — roughly 0.98× the loss at a 20 °C reference. Reference-surface calculation at a 150 °C surface from WorldClim climate normals (ASTM C680 / ISO 12241) — an indicative per-climate comparison, not a measurement of this site’s specific equipment.
