CENTRAL KALIMANTAN ELECTRICITY SUPPLY PLAN

             For those who are engaged in developing power plants, I would like to share the following points with regard to the above subject. Warm regards.

Electricity Condition

Demand for electricity in Central Kalimantan is supplied by interconnection system through 150 kV transmission network called Barito System and some isolated systems, namely Sampit, Pangkalan Bun, Nanga Bulik, Sukamara, Kuala Kurun, Puruk Cahu, Muara Teweh, Buntok, and Kuala Pembuang systems. Peak utilization in 2011 reached 146.76 MW.

Total installed capacity of power plants in Central Kalimantan up to 2011 was 174.15 MW, consisting of Steam Power Plants 28 MW and Diesel Power Plants 146.15 MW. In 2011 electricity sale for Central Kalimantan reached 650 GWh. 

Energy Potentials

Central Kalimantan is estimated to have coal potentials of 4,126.67 million tonnes.   

Electricity Demand Estimate   

              It is projected that demand for electricity in Central Kalimantan for the period 2012-2031 shall grow averagely by 11.7% per year so that in 2031 electricity need is expected to reach 5.8 TWh. To fulfill peak utilization growth of averagely around 11.4% per year until 2031, then additional power of averagely around 72 MW per year shall be needed.
