GEOTHERMAL ENERGY IN INDONESIA • FuadiArifNasution Date: 17/10/2011
Key Questions • Abundant resources ~ 28,000 MW even more. Why only developed less than 1200 MW • If this due to time and capital, which countries we should learn, USA ? The Philippines? Mexico ?
Characteristics Definition : Heat (thermal) derived from the earth (geo) • Geothermal is a low-carbon option for electricity supply • Abundant resources of geothermal in Indonesia • Low electrification ratio in Indonesia (63%) • Mature technology • Reliable baseload power

Method of Calculation Benchmark Rate (Expected Rate of Return) using WACC (Weighted Average Cost of Capital) WACC = Cost of Equity * Equity + Cost of Debt * Debt Cost of Debt = Interest rate *(1-Tax) Financing Geothermal Projects
Cost of Equity Cost of Equity using CAPM (Capital Asset Pricing Method) : E (Rj) = Rfc + β j ( E(Rm) - Rf) • Rfc = Country risk-free rate of return • β = Investment or sector-specific risk in correlation to the market • E(Rm) – Rf = Reward the market offers for bearing systematic risk Source : Ross et al 2008, 426 Financing Geothermal Projects
Case Study : Built 120 MW Geothermal PP • Technical Assumptions: • Installed Capacity = 120 MW • Capacity Factor = 90% • CAPEX = USD3000 / kW • OPEX +Administrative Cost = 2.1 USD cents /kWh • Project Lifetime = 30 years Economic Assumptions: • Inflation – 6 %/pa • Escalation electricity price – 2 %pa • Interest rate = 5 % (tenor 15 yrs) • 12% • Debt-Equity Ratio= 60:40 • Corporate Tax = 28% • Additional CER : USD12/ton CO2 and USD 20/ton CO2

Barriers • High up-front costs • Current scheme of fossil-fuels subsidy • Access to funding and guarantees • Legal framework • Information and reliable data from Government • Location in protected or conservation areas • Some creditors asked for risk level / proven technology /pay-back time
Conclusions • Lack of progress due to some procedures and business uncertainty • Several market mechanism for private penetration • Some barriers and challenges still exist • Disadvantages due to high investment • Still in promising in the future (abundant resources, necessity looking for new energy resources) Conclusions and Recommendations
