• Pilot Natural Capital Project

    in Pulau Bintan

    Location: Pulau Bintan, Indonesia

    Pilot Scale: 100 ha

    Ecosystem Type: Tropical Rainforest (Restoration)

    Project Design Team: AECOM HK, SG

  • Project Outline

    In 2024, AECOM was commissioned to establish a pilot project in Bintan Island, Indonesia. Inspired by the successful Natural Capital Laboratory in Scotland, this pilot project aims to localize a cutting-edge methodology for restoring forest while harnessing the power of digital tools and communicating ecological progress through key natural capital data. Furthermore, we will be utilizing the data to facilitate commercial partnerships and new market mechanisms to address the global nature emergency.

  • Project Stages

    The pilot project entails a sustained commitment to the site, which presently holds development rights for 25 years.

    Any extension of this initiative will be contingent upon the outcomes and momentum garnered during this pilot phase.
