Hydro, solar, and wind energy as potential electrical power plant in Indonesia Past conditions and future prospects
Medium reservoir hydro electric power plant has been long serving as conventional renewable energy source in Indonesia, mostly in Jawa Island. Shortly after the independence of Republic of Indonesia, large hydro power plants began to be constructed for example Jatiluhur and Riam Kanan, followed by Sigura gura, Cirata, Saguling, and several others more. Meanwhile, small sized and microhydro run of river type hydro power plant has been developed since the early of 1970s through the joint corporation of ITB and Eindhoven University, this corporation developed turbine for microhydro and also dummy load for load regulation. Some local industries, for instance PT. Hexa Pratama in Bandung, which have capacity to develop complete microhydro power plant system up to 300kW have been emerged after succesfully GTZ Programme back in the 1980s. Large hydro power plant is currently undergoing construction phase, it is expected that in 2019 Upper Cisokan pumped storage power plant with capacity of 1040 MW will be integrated with Jawa Bali Interconnection System. Simple pico hydro power plants are also constructed in several remote areas in Indonesia.
