The Indonesia Carbon Capture Storage Capacity Building Program : CCS for Coal-fired Power Plants in Indonesia

In order to meet the growing Indonesian demand for electricity, while also constraining carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, future coal power plants may have to include CO2 capture equipment with storage of that CO2. This study set out to define and ev...

Description
Summary:In order to meet the growing Indonesian demand for electricity, while also constraining carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, future coal power plants may have to include CO2 capture equipment with storage of that CO2. This study set out to define and evaluate the conditions under which fossil fuel power plants can be deemed as carbon capture and storage (CCS) ready (CCS-R). It considers the technical, economic, and institutional implications of CO2 capture and storage for candidate power plants in South Sumatra and West Java. The potential to sell captured CO2 for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in South Sumatra is reviewed.
