6th Annual Indonesia Independent Power Producer (IPP) Conference

Private power generation in Indonesia has never been more attractive before. Private power developers or so called 'Independent Power Producer' (IPP) contributed fifty-two thousand GWh in 2013, growing 9 percent annually by average since 2009. However, this pace is predicted to grow above 10 percent for the next decade, knowing only 84 percent of the people in Indonesia has access to electricity. 

With even larger support from newly-elected president Joko Widodo, power developers now are facing a golden era. Some areas of power sector that never been tapped now are being unfolded. All spectrum and kind of power plants in the country such as coal-fired, gas-fired, solar, geothermal, hydro, small-scale hydro, wind, and solar energy will be addressed in the conference. Nuclear also gets attention since the new president is elected, unfolding some questions need to be answered. This two-day conference is specifically designed to give you clear direction of the Indonesia government's policies to push forward the IPP scheme, PLN's detailed plan on the location and timing of each proposed IPP and for government and PLN to hear investors' perspective on the project development. 

As one of vital player in the nation's electricity sector, Independent Power Producer (IPP) in Indonesia hasn't yet contributing optimally to current power supply. Given limited PLN ability to build new power plants, the company expects IPP could deliver 70 percent of new power additional capacity in 2016. While the new energy minister has been installed, some concerns were raised -- what will be taken to solve power deficit in some provinces and encourage investment for power private developers. Some incentives and policy are being drafted to ease IPP build new plants, such as; involvement from the state to help IPP acquire the land needed for a project.

This is certainly an opportunity all stakeholders, investors would not be willing to miss.
