PGE explores plan to increase capacity of geothermal energy in 2 provinces2021年3月17日 06:40
JAKARTA - PT Pertamina Geothermal Energy (PGE), a subsidiary of PT Pertamina (Persero) is exploring an increase in the installed capacity of geothermal energy in Lampung and North Sulawesi Provinces. This was conveyed by Ahmad Yuniarto, President Director of PT Pertamina Geothermal Energy (PGE) in a press release quoted on Wednesday (17/3).
He conveyed that the areas that will be the focus for increasing the installed capacity of geothermal energy are in Ulubelu, Lampung and Lahendong, North Sulawesi. "The study to increase the capacity is carried out by GEO, in addition to maintaining electricity supply to consumers," he said.
Last year, GEO recorded the production of geothermal energy equivalent to electricity of 4,618 GWh, up 14% from the target of 4,045 GWh. This achievement is due to optimal generation and absorption in a number of PGE areas.
He conveyed that PGE has contributed 88% of the total installed capacity of geothermal energy in Indonesia. By 2025, PGE targets geothermal energy to contribute to an increase in new and renewable energy in the national energy mix to 23%. (LK/LM)

Jakarta (ANTARA) - PT Pertamina Geothermal Energy (PGE), a subsidiary of state-owned PT Pertamina, said it generated 4,618 gigawatt hours (GWh) of geothermal power, 14 percent higher than the target of 4,045 GWh for 2020.
"The equivalent production of electricity was 14 percent higher than the target in the company's budget plan due to optimum absorption from PGE's geothermal area," PGE president director Ahmad Yuniarto said in a statement issued here on Tuesday.
The company said it has maintained power supply from its generators and is evaluating the possibility of increasing its geothermal installed capacity for generating power in Ulubelu in Lampung province and Lahendong in North Sulawesi province.
"We hope this study will give positive results to develop the geothermal sector in Indonesia," Yuniarto remarked.

PGE said it is committed to increasing the production of renewable energy under a program to increase Indonesia’s national energy mix to 23 percent in 2025, especially geothermal energy.
The company accounts for around 88 percent of the total geothermal installed capacity in Indonesia, with the potential to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 9.5 million tons per year.
PGE said its 15 geothermal working areas have produced 1,877 MW of power of which 672 MW has been generated by the company itself and 1,205 MW has been produced under a joint operation contract.
