JAKARTA - Energy and Mineral Resources Minister Bahlil Lahadalia has denied reports that power outages in a number of areas were due to a lack of coal.
According to Bahlil, the supply of coal for power plants is still sufficient. The government has assigned domestic coal supplies to reach 170 million tons.
"If it is said that the problem of scarce coal is not true," said Bahlil after meeting President Prabowo Subianto at the Presidential Palace Complex, Thursday, June 11.
He explained that the power outages that occurred in several areas were more due to technical problems in a number of power plants that had been reported by PLN.
Bahlil said the government together with PLN was accelerating recovery so that electricity services could return to normal.
When asked about the possibility of a rotating blackout, Bahlil said the government was trying to ensure that the disruption was completed immediately.
"We are trying to make sure that there is no more blackout," he said.
