SOUTH 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 South Kalimantan is supplied by interconnection system through 150 kV transmission network called Barito System and some isolated systems, namely Batulicin/Pagatan, Sungai Kupang, and Kotabaru systems. Peak utilization in 2011 reached 275.97 MW.
Total installed capacity of power plants in South Kalimantan up to 2011 was 439.82 MW consisting of Steam Power Plants 144 MW, Gas Power Plants 21 MW, Diesel Power Plants 244.82 MW, and Hydro Power Plants 30 MW. In 2011, electricity sale for South Kalimantan reached 1,467 GWh. 

Energy Potentials
South Kalimantan has diversified energy potentials such as coal, thermal, and coal bed methane. Coal potentials are estimated to reach 14,437.27 million tonnes. Thermal potentials are estimated to reach 50 MW, scattered in in 3 locations namely Batubini Hulu Sungai, Tanuhi Hulu Sungai, and Hantakan Hulu Sungai. Coal Bed Methane potentials are estimated to reach 104.6 TCF. 

Electricity Demand Estimate   
It is projected that demand for electricity in South Kalimantan for the period 2012-2031 shall grow averagely by 10.5% per year so that in 2031 electricity need is expected to reach 10.6 TWh. To fulfill peak utilization growth of averagely around 10.2% per year until 2031, then additional power of averagely around 135 MW per year shall be needed.
