JAKARTA - The Hybrid Nusa Penida Solar Power Plant (PLTS) which started operating ahead of the G20 Summit in November 2022 was able to reduce emissions of 4.19 tons of CO2e per year for the island of Bali.

Chairman of the Center for Community-Based Renewable Energy or Center for Community Based Renewable Energy (CORE) Udayana University, Ida Ayu Dwi Giriantari said the presence of the Hybrid PLTS in Nusa Penida greatly had an impact on reducing the use of fossil energy, especially during the day.

"This is a good example that should be improved, especially since Nusa Penida is a tourist destination so it is mandatory to prioritize the use of clean energy which has become the government's commitment both at the central and regional levels," Ida told the media, Saturday, April 29.

He added that this PLTS is a generator that operates with a hybrid system configuration consisting of a diesel power plant (PLTD), PLTS, and uses a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) with a capacity of 1.84 megawatt hour (MWh).

General Manager of PLN Bali Distribution Main Unit, I Wayan Udayana said in order to accelerate the energy transition process, PLNakan continues to increase the capacity of power plants sourced at renewable energy.

Udayana added that in 2023 it is planned that there will be additional EBT plants, namely PLTS in eastern and western Bali, each of which is 25 megawatts (MW) and the Titab Minihydro Power Plant (PLTMH) with a power of 1.3 MW.

"This development plan will be carried out by PLN Indonesia Power which will later increase the mix of EBT generators to support the net zero emission target in 2060," he added.

He also explained that PLN continues to collaborate with various parties, including investors, the government, communities and other parties. To jointly realize the energy transition, so that access to reliable, affordable and clean electrical energy can be obtained by all Indonesian people.
