- Indonesia’s national electricity provider (Perusahaan Listrik Nasional – “PLN”) and its subsidiaries are currently in the process of developing various co-firing methods for utilization within Steam-Electric Power Stations (Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Uap – “PLTU”). These new co-firing methods involve the use of biomass as a coal substitute.
- PLN estimates that the implementation of the proposed co-firing method will require significant amounts of trash pellets and wood pellets in order to achieve a co-firing level of 1% across Indonesia’s various PLTU, with estimates currently totaling 5 million tons/year of wood pellets and 738,000 tons/year of trash pellets.
- Fortunately, experts claim that Indonesia can easily meet these trash pellet and wood pellet requirements due to the fact that the country produces 29,925 tons of trash per day and a total amount of wood potential equivalent amounting to 1,335 megawatts.
- PLN and its subsidiaries are currently in the process of testing a number of co-firing methods at the following locations: 1) PLTU Jeranjang; 2) PLTU Paiton; 3) PLTU Indramayu; 4) PLTU Ketapang; 5) PLTU Tenayan; and 6) PLTU Rembang. (esdm.go)
