By 2021, PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara Persero (PLN) owned 6,143 power plants using various types of fuel.

According to the PLN Statistics report, throughout 2021 PLN power plants used 3.09 million kiloliters (kl) of fossil fuels. This figure increased by 15.76% from 2020, which was only 2.67 million kl.

The use of coal for power plant fuel also increased by 2.69% to 68.47 million tons in 2021, compared to 66.68 million tons the previous year.

The use of natural gas for PLN power plants grew by 5.16% to 397,760 thousand MMSCF in 2021, compared to 378,250 thousand MMSCF the previous year.

The use of biomass fuel surged by 2,804% to 282,620 tons in 2021, compared to only 9,730 tons the previous year.

The surge in biomass use occurred in line with the implementation of co-firing technology, or the mixing of biomass with coal in several PLN coal-fired power plants (PLTU).

The biomass used includes waste wood powder and chips, and solid recovered fuel (SRF) derived from waste.

"The use of co-firing technology in PLTU is one of our efforts to reduce emissions in the electricity sector, in addition to adding new renewable energy power plants," said PLN's Director of Mega Projects and New Renewable Energy (EBT), Wiluyo Kusdwiharto, in his official statement on Wednesday (March 30).
