WEST 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
Electricity systems of West Kalimantan consist of interconnection and some isolated systems. The interconnection system which is connected by 150 kV transmission network is called Khatulistiwa System. Peak utilization of West Kalimantan in 2011 reached 311.24 MW.
Total installed capacity of power plants in West Kalimantan up to 2011 was 466.41 MW consisting of Gas Power Plants 34 MW, Diesel Power Plants 397.34 MW, Hydro Power Plants 1,60 MW, Micro Hydro Power Plants 0.40 MW, Coal and Gas Power Plants 33 MW, and Solar Power Plants 0.07 MW. Total electricity sale for West Kalimantan in 2011 reached 1,435 GWh.

Energy Potentials
 West Kalimantan has diversified energy potentials consisting of coal, hydro, and thermal. Coal potentials are estimated to reach 489.24 million tonnes scattered in various locations. Hydro potentials are estimated to reach 198 MW in Pinoh. Thermal potentials are estimated to reach 65 Mwe, scattered in 5 locations namely Sibetuk Sintang, Jagoi Babang Bengkayang, Meromoh Bengkayang, Sape Sanggau, and Nanga Dua Kapuas Hulu.

Electricity Demand Estimate
          It is projected that demand for electricity in West Kalimantan for the period 2012-2031 shall grow averagely by 12.7% per year so that in 2031 electricity need is expected to reach 15.2 TWh. To fulfill peak utilization growth of averagely around 12.4% per year until 2031, then additional power of averagely around 191 MW per year shall be needed.
