Abstract
Indonesia's geothermal resources reach 23,356.9 MW and until now utilization in electricity sector has only reached 2,286.05 MW or only 9.8%. The geothermal development area currently covers 63 Working Areas (GWA) including 19 existing GWAs established before Law Number 27 of 2003 concerning Geothermal and 44 GWAs established after Law Number 27 of 2003, as well as 15 Preliminary Survey and Exploration Assignment Areas.
This paper will discuss about several GWAs that have not been developed by the business entity, including an overview of the area, geoscientific evaluation, land use and economic evaluation. The GWAs also has the potential to be offered to business entities through bidding process.
