INDONESIA ENERGY SECTOR ASSESSMENT I. SECTOR ASSESSMENT: CONTEXT AND STRATEGIC ISSUES A. Introduction 1. This energy sector assessment reviews the state of the energy sector of the Republic of Indonesia. Consistent with the government's plans and strategy The ASR is a working paper based on a systematic review of Indonesia's energy sector and consultations with the government and other development partners. B. Overall Sector Context 2. Indonesia is a vast archipelago comprised of 17,508 islands which stretch over 5,000 kilometers (3,100 miles) across Southeast Asia and Oceania. Indonesia shares land borders with Papua New Guinea, Timor Leste, and Malaysia, and maritime borders with Singapore, the Philippines, and Australia. With over 252 million inhabitants in 2014, Indonesia’s large and diverse population makes it the fourth most populous country in the world. Over half of the country’s population lives in the Java- Bali region, while the rest is spread across Sumatra, Sulawesi, Kalimantan, Nusa Tenggara and Maluku, Papua, and about 6,000 other smaller inhabited islands. Economic activity is mostly focused in the Java-Bali region. The country’s island geography make transportation and service provision challenging in outlying provinces. 3. Indonesia’s economy is the largest in Southeast Asia, with a gross domestic product (GDP) estimated at $878.3 billion in 2013. The country has experienced steady growth emerging from the Asian financial crisis of 1997-1999, averaging a stable 5-6% annual growth rate.1 The strength of Indonesia’s economy was formerly based on its considerable oil exports, which drove economic growth in the 1970s and 1980s. Over time Indonesia is transitioning from an export economy into one more supported by domestic manufacturing and investment, particularly after becoming a net oil importer in 2004. As of 2013, the economy’s primary sectors were manufacturing (24%); agriculture (14%); trade, hotel and hospitality (14%); mining and quarrying (11%); construction (10%); government and private services (11%); finance, real estate, and business services (8%); transportation and communication (7%); and electricity, gas and water supply (1%).2 4. Economic growth has played a role in poverty reduction by creating employment opportunities and increasing public expenditures in the areas of health, education and infrastructure. Using the official government definition of the national poverty line as Rp 275,779 ($21.20) per month, the government estimates that 11.47% of Indonesians are living in poverty.3 This figure has fallen from 23.4% in 1999, yet still represents 27.6 million people given Indonesia’s large overall population. These many millions of households at or near the poverty line are particularly vulnerable to economic or natural shocks, with estimates that more than a quarter of all Indonesians had moved into or out of poverty at least once between 2008 and 2010.4 1 After a long hiatus, in 2012, Moody’s returned the country’s rating to investment status. The country is currently rated Baa3 by Moody’s, BB+ by Standard and Poor’s and BBB- by Fitch. 2 Badan Pusat Statistik (2013). 3 Badan Pusat Statistic (September 2013). 4 World Bank, Sustainable Energy for All (2012). 6 5. As a large middle-income country with a growing economy, a critical component of Indonesia’s future strength will be its ability to harness and manage sustainable sources of energy. If the Indonesian economy continues to grow at its current rate, Indonesia’s Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR) estimates that domestic demand for energy will also rise by around 7% per year, with electricity demand alone projected to nearly triple between 2010 and 2030. 1. Energy resources 6. According to MEMR, Indonesia has coal resources at around 120.5 billion tons, proven oil resources at around 3.69 billion barrels, and proven natural gas reserves at around 101.54 trillion cubic feet.5 This translates into about 23 remaining years of oil reserves, 59 years of gas, and 146 years of coal at current production rates. Indonesia’s renewable energy sources are also considerable. The country is endowed with significant potential for hydropower (75,000 MW), micro/mini hydropower (1,013 MW), solar (4.80 kWh/m2/day), biomass (32,654 MW), and wind (3-6 m/s), and holds 40% of the world’s geothermal reserves (28,000 MW).6 2. Energy balance 7. According to MEMR, Indonesia’s total primary energy supply in 2013 was about 1.61 billion barrels of oil equivalent (BOE).7 The majority of Indonesia’s primary energy supply comes from fossil fuels: oil (46.08%), coal (30.90%), and gas (18.26%).8 The share of other renewable energy resources in the energy mix was below 5%, mostly through hydropower (3.21%), geothermal power (1.15%), and biofuel (0.40%). It is also important to note that the use of traditional biomass is prevalent for basic cooking and thermal purposes among millions of rural households in Indonesia. According to MEMR data, Indonesia’s final commercial energy consumption in 2013 was 1.12 billion BOE. This figure has increased by nearly 40% since 2001.9 Share of final energy consumption is divided into industry (42.12%), households (11.56%), transportation (38.80%), commercial use (4.25%), and other sectors (3.26%).10 3. Energy demand forecasts 8. The government’s overall strategy for its energy sector is outlined in Presidential Decree No. 5/2006 on National Energy Policy (Kebijakan Energi Nasional, or KEN) which emphasizes diversification, environmental sustainability, and maximum use of domestic energy resources.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This research work aims to, firstly, analyze the structure of economic growth based on regency/city typology in Jambi Province in 2008-2007, and secondly, to analyze regional development inequality in Jambi Province in 2008-2017. The analytical methods used are cluster analysis and Williamson Index. In this study, regions are grouped based on similar characteristics of economic growth in Regency/City in Jambi Province using cluster analysis in the period 2008 to 2007. The results of the cluster analysis generated three regional groups with different economic characteristics each year. Through Williamson Index it is found that the average value of development inequality in Jambi Province in 2008-2017 is 0.389, indicating that Jambi Province’s inequality index is in the intermediate level. The results of panel data regression analysis show that HDI and Expenditure on Goods and Services have a significant effect on economic growth.

Aspek soial budaya merupakan aspek yang fundamental dan berperan sangat penting dalam pelaksanaan pembangunan manusia yang dituangkan dalm wujud peningkatan kualitas kesejahteraan dan kualitas taraf hidup masyarakat. Pada titik ini, nilai-nilai budaya bangsa yang mengacu pada pancasila dan UUD 1945 perlu direvitalisasi ke dalam suatu pranata-pranata yang aplikatif sehingga secara substansial mampu menaungi sekaligus menjadi pijakan dasar dalam penyelenggaraan pembangunan daerah. Dalam prakteknya selama ini, ternyata nilai-nilai ideologis bangsa ini masih belum terimplementasikan secara utuh dan nyata. Lebih dari itu, sejalan dengan penyelenggaraan pembangunan yang mengacu kepada karakteristik dan spesifikasi daerah, serta dalam kerangka memperkuat kohesi dan ketahanan sosial yang menyangkut interaksi antar individu atau kelompok masyarakat dapat dirasakan adanya kecenderungan terabaikannya budaya daerah yang memuat nilai-nilai, sikap, perilaku, kebiasaan (custom), tradisi, adat istiadat, dan bentuk-bentuk kearifan lokal lainnya.

  • Customary Forest Management in Kerinci, Central Sumatra, Indonesia
    Strategic Engagement and Dynamic Adaptation: Customary Forest Management in Kerinci, Central Sumatra, Indonesia H. Hartanto, H. Rangan, C. Thorburn, and C. Kull 1 The ability of communities to use and manage forests and other natural resources in a sustainable manner has received much interest from various scholars, policy- makers, donor agencies, and non-government organisations. With regards to the management of forests and natural resources by customary communities in Indonesia, there are two opposing views of the customary institutions, or adat , and management practices. Some perceive adat institutions and management practices as weak, inert, and incapable of responding to changing economic and social conditions. Others see adat institutions as politically dynamic and innovative in their response to changing circumstances. This paper examines the strategies and processes used by adat leaders in Kerinci, Central Sumatra, to adapt and transform their customary forest institutions in response to the national government’s policies for increased forest conservation. These policies were instituted by the creation of the Kerinci-Seblat National Park, accompanied by regulations defining forest areas and controlling people’s access to natural resources within the park and the buffer zone. Drawing on key concepts in legal pluralism, institutional change, and theories of power, the paper illustrates the ways in which the adat leaders reshaped adat institutions and engaged with powerful external actors to claim authority and management rights over the forests. The conclusions point to need for policy- makers, scholars, and practitioners to move beyond typecasting adat institutions and focus instead on the strategic ways in which adat leaders and communities engage with local governments and external actors to redefine both customary and formal institutions of forest control and management.

  • Administrative Proliferation in Kerinci Valley, Jambi Province, Sumatra, Indonesia
    THE SECRET VALLEY DIVIDED: ADMINISTRATIVE PROLIFERATION IN KERINCI VALLEY, JAMBI PROVINCE, SUMATRA, INDONESIA Keith Andrew Bettinger1* 1Department of Geography, University of Hawaii, United States * Corresponding Author. Email: [email protected] Received: 09th July 2013; Accepted: 19th November 2013 ABSTRACT After the fall of president Suharto Indonesia implemented sweeping decentralization reforms with the goal of rebalancing powers and responsibilities between the central government and the regions. Among the raft of new laws was legislation that allowed for increased proliferation (pemekaran) at the district/municipality and provincial level. In theory administrative proliferation would increase citizen participation and efficiency in governance. After 12 years the number of districts in Indonesia has nearly doubled, but there are indications that the performance of new regions is not living up to expectations. This paper examines one case: the creation of the administrative municipality of Sungai Penuh, which was split off from Kerinci District, Jambi Province, Sumatra, in 2009. I find that the process of new region creation in Kerinci has been dominated by local elites and has actually decreased unity within the district and has given rise to a movement to further sub-divide the district. The implementation of pemekaran created new tensions, and very likely will undermine the medium and long-term prospects for development in the region. © 2013 Journal of Rural Indonesia [JoRI] IPB.

Among the most conspicuous changes are those that have affected the geography of government. The decentralization reforms enacted in the wake of Suharto's forced resignation have not only altered the physical locus of a large spectrum of political and administrative powers, shifting them from Jakarta to outlying regions, but they have also allowed for the redrawing of Indonesia's political-administrative map. Redefining boundaries has been driven by a proliferation of administrative regions, a phenomenon known in Indonesia as pemekaran.2 By late 2013, 202 new districts (kabupaten) and administrative municipalities (kota) had been created, raising the 11 express my gratitude to two anonymous reviewers who provided comments and suggestions that greatly improved this essay.
