Johnson Controls has completed a long-term partnership project with Thamrin Nine, a major mixed-use complex in Jakarta’s central business district, achieving up to 30% energy savings and securing BCA Green Mark Platinum certification for outstanding environmental performance.
As part of the project, Johnson Controls designed and implemented chiller systems, engineering solutions, and building automation for two skyscrapers in the complex — the 382.9-meter Autograph Tower, the tallest building in the Southern Hemisphere, and Luminary Tower. With full building systems in place, Johnson Controls will continue providing service and equipment maintenance to ensure long-term efficiency and performance.
The company delivered integrated, high-performance building solutions tailored to Thamrin Nine’s needs. This marks Johnson Controls’ first chiller optimization project in Indonesia, combining advanced technology and turnkey project management — from design and implementation to integration — to drive energy and cost savings. Highlights include:
A 3,100-ton YORK chiller plant for Autograph Tower, operating at under 0.58 kW/TR and contributing to a 30% energy reduction, while maintaining occupant comfort and earning Green Mark Platinum certification.
Three Energy Management System (EMS) units to optimize cooling and reduce energy demand at Luminary Tower, which houses three hospitality properties.
Custom Air Handling Units (AHUs) and Fan Coil Units (FCUs) tailored for diverse commercial, retail, residential, and hospitality zones.
Real-time analytics and monitoring via the Metasys Building Management System to detect and resolve issues proactively, enhancing reliability and minimizing maintenance costs.
“This project marks a significant milestone in Jakarta’s urban development,” said Michael Wiener, Design Director at Thamrin Nine. “We aim to reshape how people live, work, and engage in the city — creating a large-scale, integrated, and sustainable destination. Johnson Controls has been the ideal partner to realize this vision and maintain peak building performance.”
“Our collaboration with Thamrin Nine demonstrates how forward-looking engineering and digital optimization can produce not only iconic buildings but also greener, smarter cities,” said Wibawa Jati Kusuma, General Manager, Malaysia & Indonesia, Johnson Controls. “We remain committed to supporting Thamrin Nine’s long-term performance and contributing to sustainable urban development in Indonesia.”
The partnership adds to Johnson Controls’ portfolio of sustainable projects in Southeast Asia, including:
Mactan-Cebu International Airport Authority (Philippines) – improved operational efficiency with Metasys BMS.
Graha CIMB Niaga Building (Indonesia) – HVAC system modernization for energy efficiency and tenant comfort.
Ng Teng Fong General Hospital (Singapore) – OpenBlue digital platform delivering multi-million-dollar energy savings.
City-Centre Development (Singapore) – targeting a reduction of approximately 88,000 tons of CO₂ over 15 years via Energy Performance Contracting and Cooling-as-a-Service.
Adapted to Jakarta’s urban context, these proven technologies support Indonesia’s Net Zero Emissions vision for 2060. As it celebrates its 140th anniversary in 2025, Johnson Controls continues to redefine building performance and support its customers’ sustainability missions.
