Region:
The project is expected to enable reduction of 112 MtCO2e over the generating assets’ lifetime, through an additional electric power generation capacity of 1 – 1.5 GW from geothermal resources.
The national electricity grid in Indonesia has been dominated by fossil-fuelled generation. This project aims to support a scale-up of investment in geothermal energy development and is expected to contribute to: (i) displacing highly-polluting power supply alternatives and diversifying the nation’s generation portfolio; (ii) reducing reliance on fossil fuels and exposure to commodity price volatilities; and (iii) ultimately lowering the energy sector’s emissions compared to the business-as-usual scenario.
