DAFTAR HITAM 20 PLTU PALING BERBAHAYA DI INDONESIA

The report identifies the 'Toxic Twenty' coal-fired power plants in Indonesia, estimating that between 2026 and 2050, they will cause 156,000 premature deaths and USD 109 billion in health-related economic losses. It argues that these plants create a net economic drain, reducing regional GDP and destroying livelihoods in agriculture and fisheries, while criticizing the government's reliance on 'false solutions' like biomass co-firing to extend the life of fossil fuel infrastructure.

• The 'Toxic Twenty' coal-fired power plants are projected to cause at least 156,000 premature deaths due to air pollution between 2026 and their final operational year in 2050.
• The economic cost of health losses resulting from the 20 most dangerous power plants is estimated at USD 109 billion (approximately Rp1,813 trillion) from 2026 to 2050.
• The operational impact of these 20 plants leads to an annual aggregate reduction in community income of Rp48.4 trillion and an overall economic loss of Rp52.4 trillion per year.
• Approximately 1.45 million jobs have been lost or negatively impacted due to the operation of these 20 plants, primarily affecting workers in the agriculture, plantation, and fisheries sectors due to environmental pollution.
• The report argues that biomass co-firing is used as a 'false green solution' or 'green mask' to extend the operational life of old coal plants rather than facilitating a genuine energy transition.
• Financing for these dangerous plants is dominated by foreign entities, with Japan recorded as the largest funder (63,328 MW), followed by China (18,815 MW) and the UK (10,325 MW).
• The report criticizes the government's use of the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) for determining plant retirement, noting that funding is weighted at 27.1%, while environmental factors like greenhouse gas emissions and energy transition are weighted significantly lower at 9.3% and 10.1% respectively.
