The Jatigede hydropower plant, located in Sumedang in West Java province, has a capacity of 110 megawatts (MW).
The plant uses water from the Jatigede dam, the second biggest in Indonesia, and will support the electricity grid between Java and Bali.
“This hydroelectric power plant is only functional during peak hours from 5pm to 10pm, because we use water from the Jatigede dam,” said Jatigede Hydroelectric Power Plant assistant project manager Dinar Pradipto.
“We match the time when water is released for irrigation needs downstream, and we use it at the same time to drive the turbine and generator.”
The Jatigede dam has a water surface area of more than 4,100ha, which makes it suitable to be used to capture solar energy.
There are plans to install floating solar power panels to complement the hydroelectric power already generated by the dam.
“The plan for a solar power plant has also been carried out by PLN (State Electricity Company) and it is targeted that by 2024, a solar power plant with a capacity of 100MW will be operational,” said Jatigede Dam Management Unit head Yuyu Wahyudin.
“This means that approximately under 10 per cent of the inundation area will be used for the floating solar power panels.”
