HARGA SEBENARNYA DARI PEMBANGKITAN LISTRIK DARI BATUBARA DAN ENERGI TERBARUKAN UNTUK INDONESIA
Summary
The document highlights the hidden costs of coal power in Indonesia, noting that coal producers received at least IDR 12.4 trillion (USD 946 million) in subsidies in 2014, which was five times the total subsidies for renewables from 2010 to 2015. It asserts that renewable energy is more cost-competitive when air pollution and CO2 externalities are included in the cost structure. Additionally, it emphasizes that significant investment in renewables is required to provide sustainable electricity access to millions of Indonesian households currently without connections.
Key insights
- Coal producers in Indonesia received at least IDR 12.4 trillion (USD 946 million) in various subsidies in 2014, a figure five times higher than the total subsidies provided to the renewable energy sector between 2010 and 2015.
- Renewable energy procurement costs are decreasing and are lower than coal when externalities such as air pollution are integrated into the cost structure; continuing with coal risks air pollution and greenhouse gas emission impacts for the next 25 years.
- Millions of households in Indonesia lack electricity connections, necessitating large-scale investment in the renewable energy sector to achieve sustainable energy access for all.
