Background
Based on the report of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (KESDM) in 2024, the total installed capacity of renewable energy generation in Indonesia is still around 15.1 GW. Meanwhile, the installed capacity of fossil power plants has reached 86 GW. Throughout 2017-2024, the growth of renewable energy generation in Indonesia was relatively slow, averaging around 854.57 MW/year.
The issuance of Presidential Regulation No. 112/2022 on the Acceleration of Renewable Energy Development is expected to increase investor interest in developing renewable energy. Unfortunately, the existence of the Presidential Regulation has not been able to encourage the development of renewable energy in Indonesia. Thus, the target of renewable energy in the national energy mix in 2025 is difficult to achieve.
On the other hand, the renewable energy potential in Indonesia is very large, reaching 3,687 GW spread throughout the region. The value is still a technical potential that needs to be studied in detail by developers so that it can be proposed as a renewable energy project that can operate in Indonesia. Several stages must be carried out by developers to ensure that the potential can become a renewable energy project that is worthy of receiving funding from fund providers and obtaining a power purchase agreement (PPA) with PT PLN (Persero).
Therefore, to support the acceleration of renewable energy development, IESR took the initiative to conduct further renewable energy mapping by emphasizing technical aspects based on spatial conditions and economy. Mapping is carried out using geospatial methodology, considering several constraints, to obtain a definitive location of potential renewable energy. Then, the initial capital expenditure and operational expenditure of the renewable energy potential at each definitive location will be estimated.
Objective
IESR is looking for partners with extensive experience and portfolios, capable of carrying out a study on “Technical and Economic Potential Mapping of Renewable Energy”, with aims as follows:
- Mapping renewable energy potential, specifically for geothermal, floating solar PV, large-scale hydropower, and offshore wind turbines based on a geospatial approach.
- Identifying preliminary logistic cost, land/site cost, and interconnection cost related to renewable energy potential mapping.
- Estimating the indicative capital and operational expenditure of the renewable energy potential.
Proposal Timeline:
Proposals will be accepted until 12:00 p.m. Indonesian Western Standard Time (WIB, GMT+07) on April 18, 2025. Any submissions received after this date and time will be regarded as inadmissible. Kindly submit the proposal to the IESR Energy Transformation Project Manager at deon@iesr.or.id and the Research Manager at raditya@iesr.or.id and cc: dwicahya@iesr.or. and reananda@iesr.or.id. Please include “RFP Response – RE Mapping [Company/Individual Name]” in the subject line.
