“…According to Radja (1975) [19], in 1972 the team drilled several exploration holes with depths reaching 145 m and obtained temperatures reaching 175 • C, but the wells had been considered unproductive. Additionally, Pambudi [1] corroborated this finding by reporting that in 1973 the geothermal wells gained geothermal potential with temperatures ranging from 92 • C to 173 • C.…”

“…The country lies on the equator, and thus falls in the tropical region. Geologically, Indonesia encompasses three active plates which are the Indo-Australian plate, the Euro-Asia plate, and the Pacific plate [1,2]. As shown in Figure 1, the volcanoes stretch from the Aceh province at the eastern most tip of the country, down through the Sumatra island, across to the Java island, Nusa Tenggara, Maluku, and end on the Sulawesi island [3].…”

Comparison of the Utilization of 110 °C and 120 °C Heat Sources in a Geothermal Energy System Using Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) with R245fa, R123, and Mixed-Ratio Fluids as Working Fluids

Binary cycle experiment as one of the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technologies has been known to provide an improved alternate scenario to utilize waste energy with low temperatures. As such, a binary geothermal power plant simulator was developed to demonstrate the geothermal energy potential in Dieng, Indonesia. To better understand the geothermal potential, the laboratory experiment to study the ORC heat source mechanism that can be set to operate at fixed temperatures of 110 • C and 120 • C is conducted. For further performance analysis, R245fa, R123, and mixed ratio working fluids with mass flow rate varied from 0.1 kg/s to 0.2 kg/s were introduced as key parameters in the study. Data from the simulator were measured and analyzed under steady-state condition with a 20 min interval per given mass flow rate. Results indicate that the ORC system has better thermodynamic performance when operating the heat source at 120 • C than those obtained from 110 • C. Moreover, the R123 fluid produces the highest ORC efficiency with values between 9.4% and 13.5%.

“…This means that all stages, from the excavation and processing of uranium, transportation of radioactive materials and waste, through the electricity generation itself, and the disposal of radioactive waste to the liquidation of the power plant should be considered. The parameters which should be assumed for the analysis of the external costs that were caused by the nuclear power industry were determined by the NEEDS program, conducted by the European Union (Osán et al 2009). They are connected with the releasing of radionuclides in the entire fuel cycle and with their influence on human health.…”

In this paper, we present a comparative review of the externalities of electricity production. First of all, the environmental impact is considered. A discussion of the influence of various electricity production processes on human health follows. The studies are conducted in the context of historical development. Current trends, as well as a historical background that resulted in the changes that can be observed today, are presented. The considerations are supported by a few case studies. Analysis of perspectives for the development of electricity generation methods, in particular the indication of clean energy sources and the perspectives of their exploitation, is the main aim of this paper.

“…27 Year 2003 on geothermal. The outstanding issue of land acquisition and permission for geothermal energy development is resolved by this new law, which no longer classifies it as mining operation [41]. Substantial financial support of approximately US$ 275 million has been allocated to PT Sarana Multi Infrastruktur (PT SMI) through the Regulation of the Minister of Finance (PMK) No.…”

This research paper identifies fiscal policy gaps that occur in Indonesia's renewable energy (RE) sector and analyses its political economy. Primary data from 37 stakeholders and secondary data from fiscal policies from Indonesia's 2007-2017 taken from Ministry of Finance (MOF) and Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR) regulation databases. The fiscal policy data were analysed using a cluster approach and meta-synthesis method. The results show that Indonesia has experienced multi-faceted principal-agent problems between PT PLN, the agent with sole authority to manage electricity transmissions, and various principals, namely the Ministry of State Owned Enterprises (MSOE), the MEMR, the Ministry of Industry (MOI) as the intermediary between domestic and foreign RE industries, and the MOF. While changing the MEMR's feed-in-tariff (FiT) policies sends an uncertain policy signal, the MOF's fiscal incentive policies other than FiT to promote RE development in Indonesia remain sub-optimal; the fiscal policies required to incentivise a large volume of smalland medium-scale investment in RE are absent. Differentiated tax rates and tax-break periods for national and foreign companies on the micro, small and medium scales could significantly accelerate the development of RE by both domestic and foreign companies, supporting Indonesia in achieving its sustainable development goals and emission reduction targets under its nationally determined contribution.
