Solar Power Plants in Indonesia: Locations, Impacts, and Progress
This article explores solar power in Indonesia, highlighting key locations, current progress, and its multifaceted impacts on society, the economy, and the environment.
Floating solar PV systems present a promising avenue, leveraged by Indonesia's extensive maritime territory, and as laid out in an analysis by the National Research and Innovation Agency of Indonesia (BRIN) in 2022.
Indonesia straddles the equator, making it an ideal location for solar energy generation. The country receives an average solar radiation of about 4.5 to 5.5 kWh/m²/day throughout the year (Mulyadi, 2020). This geographical advantage positions solar energy as one of the most feasible and abundant renewable resources available.
In early 2024, the Indonesian government amended the Energy and Mineral Resources Ministerial Regulation No. 26/2021 to boost the household sector transition to renewable energy, eliminating the previous solar PV installation limit of 10-15% out of the total electricity capacity installed by PLN.
More energy is consumed in Indonesia than any of the nine other ASEAN member nations. Electricity generation capacity stood at 57.6 gigawatts (GW) as of 2017. Indonesia consumes around 220 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity per year.
