Indonesia's Transition To Biomass Sparks Resistance: Can Bioenergy Work?

Indonesia's Transition To Biomass Sparks Resistance: Can Bioenergy Work? | Power To The People

Indonesia confronts its reliance on coal by transitioning to biomass co-firing for energy, aiming for a more sustainable future. However, resistance emerges from activists and remote communities, fearing deforestation. Enter bamboo - a promising resource to feed biomass plants. But significant challenges in funding and accessibility to remote areas may hinder nationwide implementation.

Spending $12 million on a 300 kW power plant is an exorbitantly high cost. For that amount, you could easily invest in a solar-plus-battery system, which costs about 18 cents per kWh or approximately Rp. 3000 at the current rate. Solar systems are generally easier to maintain than biomass power plants. However, considering the diesel power plant is already operational, it might not make sense to fix something that isn't broken. Instead of focusing on reducing the carbon footprint in these remote areas, targeting a 1% reduction in larger cities would have a significantly greater impact (1000x). Remote villages face more pressing issues, such as poverty. Encouraging NGOs or the government to donate gravity lights can provide continuous lighting for studying, which can gradually transform lives through education.

I increasingly see carbon not as the enemy. I think most of our altered temperature / climate is due to land use, and not necessarily carbon. The urban heat island effect is real, and turning green plant cover into tilled soils or parking lots interrupts the water cycle and changes weather patterns as well as increasing temperature. Net carbon in the atmosphere will actually make plants greener. When you have a greenhouse, optimal growing conditions are 1600 ppm, and a lot of serious greenhousers add c02 to their system. The idea that carbon will mean the end of humans is wrong. But if we turn all of our land into tilled, dead soil and parking lots we will have severely disrupted weather patterns. Land use is much more important than carbon.

Solar + battery is so cheap now and even getting cheaper day by day, it will be a much easier solution to install that. A 3MW solar costs about 2.5 million and requires 12 acres of land. In Indonesia on an average it will produce 12 Mwh of electricity everyday. A Tesla megapack which is 4 mwh costs only 1 million now. So if you install 2 of them then you get 8 mwh of storage. For a total cost of 4.5 million or say 5 million, you get 12,000 units everyday which can be used anytime. If you get 10 Starlink terminal for the island, you can get high speed internet without any wires for the island. The solar panels will work for 30 years and batteries will work for more than 20 years with no running costs and negligible maintenance cost. If they have some e-bikes and few EVs, they can be totally independent of the world. They can still grow bamboo and sell them by making some useful products. This solution is carbon negative and people can make money instead of burning bamboos. Burning bamboos will still produce toxic fumes besides CO2, like CO, NoX and other chemicals.

poor indonesia, after palm oil and nikel pollution they have also to burn their forests. And the funny thing is that in wood carbon/hydrogen is 16/1 while in coal is 8/1. So burning coal produce much less carbon that burning wood. We are really going toward the end.

Reminds of UK insanity. Largest power plant DRAX uses bio energy. When built the pie in the sky plant counted on waste wood and chips from EU manufacturers etc. No surprise that there was not enough! So now Canada's far west coast produces chips in a completely unsustainable way. Loads them on huge ships. 15,000 mile round trips polluting with greenhouse gases before they're burned in UK. Stupid

@hitthedeck4115 12 күн бұрын

It's a highly inefficient process of converting the sun's energy (through photosynthesis) to electricity. The extracted energy/kg of sugarcane is very small with this method, also means that you need a lot of land. The less step you can do to convert something to electricity, the better it is. That's why burning coal is still the cheapest way to get power since you simply pick up the fuel from the ground and burn it.
