PLN Collaborates with JICA in Study to Accelerate Energy Transition in Indonesia
PT PLN (Persero) and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) are collaborating on a study to accelerate the energy transition in Indonesia. This was stated in the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between PLN and JICA in a series of Energy Transition Day events, Tuesday (1/11), in Bali. PLN President Director Darmawan Prasodjo said the purpose of signing this MoU was to update the estimated electricity demand in 2060 to achieve Net Zero Emission (NZE). Darmawan explained that the collaboration between PLN and JICA is also expected to produce a stable electrical power system planning with the use of new and renewable energy.
Not only that, both parties agreed to sign an MoU as a basis for accelerating the Energy Transition in Indonesia in accordance with the capabilities, experience and resources in the field, by exchanging data and through coordination with stakeholders to support the interests of the study. JICA is the implementing agency of Japan’s official development assistance or Official Development Assistance (ODA) with the aim of supporting socio-economic development, economic recovery or stability in developing countries.

The development of floating solar power plants (PLTS) is one of the mainstays to pursue the share of renewable energy of 23% in 2025 and 31% in 2050. The potential for additional green energy capacity from this floating PLTS reaches 28,197.6 megawatts (MW). Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Arifin Tasrif said his party continues to encourage the use of renewable energy to meet national energy needs. The reason is, with a potential of up to 400 thousand MW, renewable energy can be the mainstay of meeting energy needs in the future.
However, he continued, currently the national energy mix is still dominated by fossil energy. The development of solar and hydro energy will be the mainstay to boost the share of renewable energy until 2030. The hybrid plant in question is the construction of a floating PLTS in a reservoir or lake that also has a hydropower plant (PLTA). According to him, from the results of the beauty contest that was held, the price of electricity for the floating PLTS project in the reservoir where there is also a hydropower plant can be reduced to only US$ 3.7 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh). Moreover, the potential of floating solar power plants in Indonesia is also quite large. “The potential of floating PLTS is quite large, there are 28 thousand MW, this only utilizes 5% of the surface of the reservoir or lake according to the rules of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR),” said Arifin.
Referring to data from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, the potential for floating PLTS of 28,197.6 MW is spread over 211 reservoirs with a potential of 6,348.1 MW and 164 lakes with a potential of 21,849.5 MW.However, the potential for floating PLTS that can be combined with existing PLTA is recorded at 12,055 MW in 28 locations. In detail, the hybrid potential of floating PLTS and PLTA is 3,086 MW in 24 reservoirs and 8,987.2 MW in 4 lakes. The distribution of the potential hybrid PLTS Floating and PLTA is 7,150 MW in three locations in Sumatra, 26.7 MW in one location in Kalimantan, 2,919 MW in six locations in Sulawesi, and 39.4 MW in five locations in Maluku, Papua and Nusa Tenggara. Meanwhile in Java, Madura and Bali, the potential for this power plant project is 1,919.6 MW in 13 locations.

Meanwhile, in the 2021-2030 RUPTL obtained by Investor Daily, there are seven floating PLTS projects that have been planned with a total capacity of 612 MW. In detail, the floating PLTS in the Wonogiri Reservoir with a capacity of 100 MW and the Mrica Reservoir 60 MW in Central Java, the Sutami and Wonorejo Reservoirs each of 122 MW in East Java, the Jatiluhur Reservoir 100 MW and Saguling 60 MW in West Java, and Lake Singkarak 48 MW in Sumatra. One of the ongoing floating Solar Power Transmission (PLTS) projects is the Cirata Reservoir with a capacity of 145 MW. Referring to the data from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, the selling price of the stun is quite good at US$ 5.8 cents per kWh. The construction of the power plant with an estimated investment value of US$ 129 million is targeted to take 16 months. The Cirata Floating PLTS project is carried out by a subsidiary of PLN, PT Pembangkitan Jawa Bali Investasi (PJBI), with Masdar, a company from the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Arifin admitted that his party must work hard to increase the share of renewable energy from the current 11.3% to 23% in 2025. To that end, his party is finalizing the preparation of the General Plan for the Provision of Electricity (RUPTL) 2021-2030 in order to prioritize renewable energy generation. “And it is hoped that with the completion of the RUPTL, a new Presidential Regulation (Presidential Regulation) on renewable energy can be issued,” he stressed. In addition to floating PLTS, his party also encourages the construction of large-scale PLTS and rooftop PLTS. For large-scale PLTS, it is targeted to reach a capacity of 5,342 MW until 2030, spread over 1,863 MW in Java-Bali, 1,178 MW in Sumatra, 563 MW in
Kalimantan, 781 MW in Sulawesi, 426 MW in Maluku, 389 MW in Nusa Tenggara, and 141 MW in Papua. Furthermore, the rooftop PLTS capacity is targeted to reach 2,145 MW until 2030, namely in 742 MW
