Abstract
The electric power sector in Indonesia will be expanded with an additional generating capacity of about 1,225 MW at the end of the fifth year development plant (1989/1990 to 1993/1994) from the existing 8,529 MW. At present a 140 MW geothermal condensing plant (one unit of 30 MW and 2 units of 55 MW, all in Kamojang) and two noncondensing monobloks (2 MW in Dieng and 25 kW in Kamojang) have been operating successfully since 1979. Based on the fifth year development plan the government of Indonesia has decided to install an additional 235 MW on the island of Java and 15 MW on North Sulawesi, for a total installed capacity of 377.25 MW.
