Malapari (Pongamia pinnata (L) Pierre) is an endemic species of Leguminosae from southeast Asia, Australia and Afrika. Malapari is one species alternative of Reclamation Program in PT Asmin Bara Bronang. The aims of this study are to know the growth and adaptation rate of Malapari in extrime area after charcoal mining and to introduce the malapari for a alternative species for reclamation program with bioenergy potential species. The research method used is the census method in areas planted with malapari at PT ABB which was observed from 2020 with parameters including malapari growth; survival rate; analysis of soil fertility; biodiversity and carbon estimate. The results showed that malapari growth on post-mining land was very rapid where within 4 years it increased in height by an average of 184,92cm with a diameter growth of 10.76 cm and a survival rate of 87,78%, above ground biomass 584,04kg (274,5kg carbon) with very good leaf growth in fresh dark green The condition of early soil fertility becomes increased after planting. The great hope in this program is that malapari can be an alternative species for post-coal mining forest restoration from local superior species of use that has the potential to be a bioenergy source.
