✓ Largest energy user in South East Asia
✓ World’s fourth-largest producer of coal and Southeast
Asia’s biggest gas supplier
✓ Total electrical capacity installed: 71 GW (Year 2020-ESDM)
✓ Total electricity generation: 295.5 TWh (Year 2019-IEA)
• Electricity generation mix dominated by fossil fuels
(85%) with renewables playing a smaller role (15%)
• Major Sources of Electricity: Coal (60%), Oil (4%), Gas
(21%), Hydro (7%), Geothermal (5%), Biofuels (3.6%),
Wind/Solar/Waste (<1%)
✓ Electricity final consumption: 275.2 TWh (Year 2019-IEA)

✓ Indonesia is located at the equator, with:
• High Solar Global Horizontal Irradiation 3.6-6
kWh/m2/day (average 4.8 kWh/m2/day)
• Annual power output 1,170 kWh/kWp – 1,530 kWh
for each installed kWp of solar panels (Solargis-ESMAP
2019)
✓ Recent analysis finds that Indonesia’s solar PV ground-
mounted technical potential capacity ranges between
3,396 GWp up to 19,835 GWp depending on land-use
exclusions scenarios (IESR-2021), well above the current
MEMR’s official estimate 207 GWp (RUEN 2017)
✓ Indonesia has residential rooftop PV potential market of
34.5 – 116.3 GWp (IESR-2019)
✓ Eastern Indonesia is particularly suitable for solar
development due to dry climate, high solar radiation levels,
land availability and high electricity generation costs
(extensive use of diesel power plants)
✓ Great technical potential in Kalimantan, Sumatra, West
Java, and East Java (IESR)

1. Solar PV Systems converts sunlight into electricity:
• On-Grid PV systems; connected into the distribution grid, that in
Indonesia is operated by State Electricity Company PLN. With
battery storage is referred to as Hybrid Solar System.
• Off-Grid or Stand-Alone PV systems; small systems for remote
locations not connected into the grid, equipped with energy storage
system (battery) and generally with back-up system (ex. Gen-set).
• Mini-Grid PV systems where PV is supported by types of electricity
generators (ex.diesel, micro-hydro or home biogas) and with battery
storage, provide small isolated distribution grid for local consumers
usually in remote rural areas and off-shore islands.
According to the mounting system of PV modules, systems can be:

• PV Rooftop and Building Integrated Systems: PV panels mounted
on roofs and/or façades of residential and commercial buildings
• Large utility-scale solar power plants (solar farms): PV modules
are ground-mounted or “floating systems” installed on water bodies.
2. Low-temperature Solar Thermal Systems, which captures the sun’s

heat. Note: Concentrated Solar Power not considered in this
presentation.

Green Energy Policy (Ministerial Decree No. 2/2004) identifies Indonesia strategy to maximize renewable energy potential
2005 Blueprint of National Energy Management (2005-2025) identifies short and long-term development objectives in the
electricity sector. It establishes targets for electricity production from various renewable energy sources.
2006 Medium-Scale Power Generation using Renewable Energy (Ministerial Regulation No. 2/2006) obliges electric utility PLN to
purchase electricity generated from renewable energy facilities with capacity 1 MW up to 10 MW.
2007 Energy Law No. 30/2007 established a specific legal basis for national energy management
2009 Electricity Law (No.30/2009): It promotes use of renewable energy resources. The regulation set by this law “Purchasing
Price by PT PLN of Generated Electricity from Small and Medium Scale Renewable Energy Power Plant or Excess Power”
2011 (RAN-GRK) National Action Plan for GHG Emission Reduction by Presidential Regulation (No.61/2011)
2012 Ministerial Regulation No 04/2012 on Electricity Purchase from Small and Medium Scale Renewable Energy and Excess
Power introduces new differentiated feed-in tariff levels in Indonesia.
2013 Power purchase from solar PV plants (Ministerial Regulation No. 17/2013) introduces solar auction programme
2014 (KEN) National Energy Policy (Government Regulation No.79 – 2014)
2016 Solar Feed-In Tariff of Indonesia (MEMR No. 19/2016)
2017 (RUEN) General Plan for National Energy (Presidential Regulation No.22 Year 2017). Regulation No. 10 of 2017 on Power
Purchase Agreement Principles. Regulation No. 12 of 2017 on Utilization of Renewable Energy Resources for Provision of
Electricity, later replaced by MEMR Regulation No. 50 of 2017, that regulates the tariff regimes for renewable electricity
generation amended by MEMR Regulation No. 4 of 2020
2018 MEMR Regulation No. 49 of 2018, that regulates Solar Rooftop Power Generation Systems amended by MEMR Regulation

No. 13 of 2019 and MEMR Regulation No. 16 of 2019 (together, "MEMR 49 as amended").
5 Indonesia Renewable Energy/Solar Targets
➢ Indonesia has ratified the legally-binding global climate change target, Paris
Agreement, through Law No.16/2016.
➢ The Country`s target: 29% (41% conditional on international support) GHG emission
reduction by 2030 by promotion of clean and renewable energy and energy
conservation.
➢ New and Renewable Energy (NRE) target in the primary energy mix: 23% (10%
bioenergy, 7% geothermal, 3% hydropower and 3% others ex. solar/wind) by 2025 and
31% by 2050, by Government Regulation No.79 of 2014 regarding National Energy
Policy - KEN, from around 14% share at present.
➢ Government`s solar PV target: 6,500 MW by 2025 and 45,000 MW by 2050, by
endorsing the mandatory use of solar panels covering a minimum of 30% and 25% of
the rooftops of government buildings and houses/apartments respectively (RUEN 2017)
➢ MEMR in 2017 launched the “One Million Rooftop Solar Initiative (GNSSA)” to target
one million homes/buildings, each with minimal installed capacity of 1 kWp rooftop
solar (cumulative installed capacity of 1 GWp)
➢ Latest PLN’s Electricity Business Plan (2019-2028 RUPTL: The use of rooftop solar
photovoltaic projected at 3.2 GW. Solar power plant target to reach 908 MW by 2028

8 Opportunities
• Reduce Indonesia’s dependence on fossil fuels for
power generation, provide clean electricity to a nation in
need of power, reduce air pollution and GHG emissions
• Attractive option for small scale provision of electricity in
remote locations, supports development opportunities
• Competitive Technology transfer: continuous decrease
in cost of PV systems, Batteries & Storage Technologies
• Potential synergy with gas-fired power plants or
combination with other renewable energy sources (mainly
hydro) to help deal with variability of solar resource
• Socio-economic benefits: local green jobs creation and
enterprise development, local economy growth
• High technical potential for rooftop PV in large
shopping malls and stores, large industries as well as
public buildings including universities and hospitals
• Huge potential for development of “floating solar”
due to large water catchment area (86,000 ha)
• Great potential of Solar Thermal for water heating and
cooling in buildings; need of design standards, inclusion
in building codes, demonstration projects. Solar thermal
storage and/or hybrid solutions for new industrial plants.
