Bisnis.com, JAKARTA — President Director of State Electricity Company (Persero) or PLN Darmawan Prasodjo inspected the Cirata Floating Solar Power Plant (PLTS) which is planned for commercial operation at the end of October 2023. The project has an investment of IDR 1.7 trillion. Darmawan said that currently his company is carrying out a number of trials to ensure that the electricity distributed from the PLTS with a capacity of 145 MWac or the equivalent of 192 MWp can be distributed properly. "I want to ensure the readiness of the Cirata floating PLTS to be operational. Currently we are carrying out various trials and ensuring that electricity from PLTS can be distributed properly. "We are optimistic that by the end of October 2023, this PLTS can be inaugurated," said Darmawan as quoted in a press release, Saturday (9/9/2023). Darmawan explained that the Cirata floating PLTS was the result of collaboration between the PLN Nusantara Power subholding and the energy company from the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Masdar. Through collaboration, this project is able to absorb more than 1,400 local workers. By applying sophisticated technology, this PLTS also creates new competencies for PLN. “Earlier I met several personnel, graduates of the best universities in this country. I asked a year ago whether they understood how to build and operate this floating PLTS? They know nothing about this. There are many challenges that must be resolved. "However, we managed to map these challenges," said Darmawan. He said the floating PLTS was located above the Cirata Reservoir, West Bandung, West Java. Spread across an area of 200 hectares built in 13 blocks with more than 340,000 solar panels, this PLTS is capable of producing 245 million kWh of clean energy per year and is capable of electrifying the equivalent of more than 50,000 houses, and will reduce carbon emissions by more than 200,000 tons per year. Meanwhile, with an investment value of IDR 1.7 trillion, this project is able to produce attractive investment returns, increase investor confidence and at the same time answer the challenge of clean energy. "This is also proof that PLN is able to present an attractive investment cooperation scheme so that it has succeeded in encouraging investor interest in developing renewable energy projects in other regions," he said. On the other hand, he ensured that PLN would continue to develop clean energy-based power plants. With clean energy potential reaching 360 GW, PLN is opening a space for investment cooperation for the development of clean energy in the country in realizing the 2060 Net Zero Emissions (NZE) target. On this occasion, Darmawan also launched the use of an electric boat called Nusantara e-Boat. The electric boat is used as an operational vehicle for Cirata floating PLTS officers. The floating PLTS, which is considered the largest in the Southeast Asia region, is supported by syndicated financing from three international banks, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC), Societe Generale and Standard Chatered with a value of around US$140 million. The plan is that the floating PLTS will supply around 245 million kWh of electricity every year. Meanwhile, the electricity tariff set from this solar plant is quite competitive at US$5.8 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh). "This floating PLTS only uses around 25 percent of capacity, meaning we can still add up to 1 gigawatt," he said. The Cirata Floating PLTS will be run by Pembangkitan Jawa Bali Masdar Solar Energi or PMSE, which is a joint venture formed by a consortium of PLN's subsidiary, PT PJB Investasi (PJBI) with a share share of 51 percent with a company from the United Arab Emirates, Masdar with a share share of 49 percent. Previously, President Joko Widodo or Jokowi pushed for a sustainable and mutually beneficial financing scheme to accelerate the energy transition in the Southeast Asia or ASEAN region. Jokowi conveyed this initiative in front of the leaders of Asean member countries and other delegates when opening the Asean Indo-Pacific Forum in Jakarta, Tuesday (5/9/2023). "Sustainable and innovative financing, Asean needs US$29.4 trillion for the energy transition," said Jokowi. This projection comes from research by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) for the period up to 2050. By then, countries in the Southeast Asia region are expected to have switched 100 percent to renewable electricity generation. Jokowi hopes that each ASEAN country can initiate innovative financing schemes through sustainable and mutually beneficial partnerships to carry out the transition program. (SOURCE)

Bandung - West Java is a favorite for investors to develop their businesses. This can be seen from the achievements of West Java which has become the most efficient or highest investment destination in Indonesia for 5 consecutive years. In 2022, the investment value in West Java even reached IDR 175 trillion. Meanwhile, this year, the amount of investment coming in in the first semester of 2023 has reached IDR 103.6 trillion. "The investment achievement in West Java has reached 55% of the Provincial Government's target of IDR 188 trillion. As for the first semester of 2023, the investment value in West Java has reached IDR 103.6 trillion," said Head of West Java DPMPTSP Nining Yulistiani in an economic discussion in Bandung, Wednesday ( 2/8/2023). Nining said that the high interest of investors in saving their funds in developing business was because West Java had adequate supporting infrastructure and human resources. In fact, according to him, the wages of workers in West Java are already high. "HR in West Java is high in terms of productivity. So when compared with other regions where wages are lower, investors still prefer to invest here," he said. "The Governor is offering investment door to door. Apart from that, in West Java there are the most toll road routes, then supported by accessibility which has quite high stability, basic infrastructure for providing energy, raw materials and water, West Java is also one of the locations with the most choices," he continued explaining. To support this, the West Java Provincial Government will also hold the West Java Investment Summit 2023 with the aim of offering the potential of West Java to investors, both domestic and foreign. "The agenda we focus on is planning projects for both the Regional Government (Pemda) and the private sector. There they present material to investors," he said. In the same place, academic from the Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB) Padjadjaran University (Unpad) Bayu Kharisma said that regions outside Java are starting to show enthusiasm to attract investors. Based on data from the Ministry of Investment, investment realization outside Java in the first quarter of 2023 contributed more than Java, namely 52.6 percent with a value of IDR 172.9 trillion. The high contribution from outside Java to the total realization of PMA and PMDN in the first quarter shows that the government remains consistent in running the Indonesian-centric economy. "In total, West Java is the champion, but for PMA investment, Central Sulawesi is the highest," he said. Based on location, the five provinces with the largest FDI realization in the first quarter of 2023 were Central Sulawesi amounting to IDR 28.8 trillion. West Java is in second place with investment absorption of IDR 28.1 trillion, followed by DKI Jakarta, Banten and Riau. "West Java investment is dominated by investors from Japan with an investment value of IDR 8.37 trillion for 1,757 projects, followed by China with an investment value of IDR 3.96 trillion for 306 projects," concluded Bayu.

PORTALJABAR, KAB. BANDUNG BARAT - The West Java Provincial Government is offering 10 projects that have met the ready to offer requirements to potential investors at the 2023 West Java Investment Summit (WJIS). West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil said the investment worth IDR 70 trillion focused on the green infrastructure sector and downstream industry. "This year we are offering IDR 70 trillion in the form of green infrastructure and 10 locations for industrial downstreaming," said Ridwan Kamil after opening WJIS 2023 at Mason Pine, Kota Baru Parahyangan, West Bandung Regency, Wednesday (9/8/2023). Kang Emil, his nickname, said that the investment realization per IDR 1 trillion was able to absorb a workforce of 1,000 people. This means that if the IDR 75 trillion investment is realized, it will absorb a workforce of up to 75,000 people. "It will absorb a lot of labor, especially in the downstream sector, which previously was a raw export, now the factories are forced to be here, so there will be lots of jobs for the people of West Java," he said. WJIS 2023 is the fifth since it was held in 2019. During these five years, the total investment realization for both PMA and PMDN amounted to more than IDR 800 trillion. Kang Emil said that 2022 would be the largest realization record, namely IDR 174.6 trillion. "Over five years we have delivered more than IDR 800 trillion and last year's record was IDR 174.6 trillion. That's a lot of economic movement in West Java and the investment engine is like gasoline that drives the economy," he said. Kang Emil revealed that there are three reasons why West Java is always the favorite for investors. Firstly, because the infrastructure is the most complete, especially now that nine new toll roads are being built. Second is a responsive bureaucracy. Investors are made easy to manage the licensing process. "From only 8,000 permit applications in 2018, it jumped to 25,000 in 2022 and 2023. This means that we make licensing easier," said Kang Emil. The third reason is that investors are attracted to West Java because of the consistent productivity and work competence of its citizens. High investment in West Java has an impact on increasing economic growth. Last year West Java's economic growth was the best in Java, growing 5.45 percent. In the second quarter of 2023, West Java's economic growth will be above the national average, namely 5.17 percent. "This means that with economic growth and investment always being the highest, whatever we see in West Java is increasing economic activity. Starting from the corporate scale to the poor, we are carrying out inclusive economic development," said Kang Emil. "West Java is the best face of the Indonesian economy. Hopefully at the end of my term it will be remembered that this is a champion province in the economy," he added. In the 2023 WJIS series, West Java Provincial Secretary Setiawan Wangsaatmaja explained to potential investors that the 10 projects being offered included the Special Economic Zone of LIDO, Electric Motorcycle Industry for Electric Vehicles, and Component Industries of Motor Vehicle's Brake System and Suspension System, Airplane Tire Industry from Natural Rubber, and Paracetamol, Clopidogrel and Amoxicillin Medicine Raw Material Industry. Successfully Attracting Investment Meanwhile, Deputy Governor of Bank Indonesia, Yuda Agung, said that WJIS had proven successful in attracting investment to enter West Java. West Java Province has always been a favorite location for investment and is a champion in investment every year. "One of the results of WJIS is the realization of the solar panel project built at the Cirata Purwakarta PLTA," said Yuda. Yuda also added that BI provides conducive macroeconomic guarantees, stability and encourages banks to finance new investments. "It is hoped that this will further trigger investment, especially in West Java," said Yuda. His party is also committed to supporting investment in the renewable energy sector. "We also continue to encourage banks to finance projects offered in WJIS, especially renewable industry," emphasized Yuda. (Source)

Jakarta (ANTARA) - Development of the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed railway project has reached 79.9-percent completion and is targeted to become operational by June 2023, according to President Joko Widodo (Jokowi)."So far, work on 79.9 percent of the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed train project has been completed. We expect to test it by the end of 2022 to be operated in June 2023,” Jokowi noted while inspecting tunnel 2 for the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed rail (KCJB) project in Purwakarta District, West Java, on Monday.Jokowi inspected the progress in construction of the KCJB along with Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Panjaitan, Cabinet Secretary Pramono Anung, West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil, President Director of PT Kereta Cepat Indonesia China (KCIC) Dwiyana Slamet Riyadi, and other relevant officials.During his visit, Jokowi reviewed the technical problems encountered in tunnel 2 of the project."Based on information on the field, progress in the work at tunnel 2 is running slowly because of the type of soil in the area. Being here requires careful work," he emphasized.Jokowi is optimistic that the Jakarta-Bandung high-speed train would reduce traffic congestion in the two cities."We are optimistic that this project would reduce congestion both in Jakarta and in Bandung as well as accelerate the mobility of people and goods. We are optimistic that this would offer a good competitive advantage for our country," Jokowi remarked.The Jakarta-Bandung high-speed train will use the latest generation of CR400AF train cars. The project has a track length of 142.3 kilometers from Jakarta to Bandung.The train will stop at Halim, Karawang, Padalarang, and Tegalluar stations. Each station will be integrated with modes of mass transportation in each region.Of the total length of the high-speed rail lines, over 80 kilometers have elevated structures, while the rest are 13 tunnels and subgrades.Several temporary facilities, such as a batching plant and casting yard, were built at several critical points to expedite the construction process.

Right now, every company in the world is facing the same question: What’s going to happen when the pandemic is over? Grocery stores and consumer packaged goods manufacturers have experienced an unexpected boost in sales: Will that growth sustain? Hotels and airlines have experienced unprecedented drops in demand: Will their business ever come back? Movie studios, video game producers, and theaters need to envision how the pandemic will permanently affect entertainment habits. When the pandemic is over, many companies will find that their business model has been disrupted in fundamental ways. Over the last several months, we’ve been working with management teams in a variety of sectors, including retail, entertainment, finance, and health care, to develop a plan for what comes next. What we’ve learned is that conventional strategic thinking hasn’t helped these companies to plan for the next “new normal.” Instead, the best answers have come from a hybrid approach: one that combines traditional business strategy with the latest thinking from social science and innovation theory. Ultimately, planning for a post-pandemic world means answering three questions. The first is: How does your business really make money? Many companies haven’t taken the time to articulate their critical strategic differentiators or map out how money, goods, and information flow from their suppliers to their consumers. Next, who do you depend on to drive the business? Define your most important stakeholders and their behaviors that affect your business model. The third critical question — what will people’s behaviors look like after the pandemic — may be more difficult to answer. Even though the pandemic is temporary, it’s lasting long enough to turn temporary behaviors into structural shifts. At the end of the crisis, some things will return to the way they were, some things will look very different, and some things will simply not come back. The trick is to figure out which is which. To help shed some light on this last question, we’ve identified three categories of stakeholder behaviors to evaluate: Sustained behaviors are activities that are likely to return to their pre-crisis state virtually unchanged. For instance, people stopped staying in hotels in the months after 9/11, but that behavior eventually returned to pre-9/11 levels. Hoteliers just needed to find ways to hold on in the meantime. Transformed behaviors are activities that are likely to return after the crisis, albeit with fundamental changes. After 9/11, people stopped flying on planes. When they started flying again, the need for stricter security protocols at airports was clear. Airports began to make massive investments in security technology that they had been previously slow to make. This had a major positive effect on the businesses of security system manufacturers. Collapsed behaviors are activities that are likely to cease altogether or be replaced by alternatives. After 9/11, travelers could no longer take beverages past the TSA check point. If you owned a coffee shop outside of that point, all of a sudden, your customers just stopped buying their coffee or water as they arrived at the airport. Today, you won’t find as many beverage shops outside of TSA check points. How do you predict behavior change? At first glance, it can seem impossible to forecast how behaviors will change. Fortunately, we can draw on decades of research on habit formation, technology adoption and behavioral economics to make reasonable predictions on what happens next. We’ve identified four factors to help you evaluate how behaviors might change for your stakeholders: 1. Mechanics. Is the behavior a habit or has it been somehow disrupted? Being part of a routine increases the likelihood that the behavior will continue. Importantly, studies of habit formation suggest that time spent doing a behavior isn’t the critical factor in determining whether it gets embedded; it’s the number of times you do it. For example, after analyzing its order data, a home delivery company discovered that it took four deliveries to make a customer for life. Completing three orders wasn’t enough. And five orders provided no additional adherence. Ask yourself: Sustained behavior: Are the mechanics of the behavior engrained in daily habits, routines, or rituals? Transformed behavior: Have people been forced to alter the mechanics or stop the behavior altogether? Collapsed behavior: Are the mechanics of the behavior foreign, complicated, or difficult? 2. Motivators. Does continuing this behavior provide significant psychological or financial benefit? For example, staying at home during the pandemic has reminded us of just how much we miss other people. And while we may be reluctant to eat in restaurants right now, the positive psychological benefits of going out to eat with friends increases the likelihood that we haven’t seen the last of people dining out. As one might imagine, psychological studies show that intrinsic rewards can be far more impactful than a purely monetary return. Ask yourself: Sustained behavior: Is the behavior driven by psychological or financial benefits? Transformed behavior: Have these benefits shifted? Collapsed behavior: Are the benefits of the previous behavior ungratifying or dangerous? Do they come at a new cost? 3. Pressures. Human beings are herd animals, and we like to do what everyone else in the herd is doing. For example, if everyone else is speeding on the highway, we speed up, too. That, of course, changes when we see flashing lights in our rear-view mirror: Social pressures give way to an authority figure. When evaluating a behavior, examine who’s telling people to keep doing it. Ask yourself: Sustained behavior: Are there authoritative or social forces driving the behavior? Transformed behavior: Are people getting mixed messages about continuing the behavior? Collapsed behavior: Are there authoritative or social deterrents to the behavior? 4. Alternatives to the behavior. People will abandon a behavior if there’s a better way to do it, but shifting to the new behavior needs to be relatively painless. Importantly, technology adoption theory suggests that the alternative needs to already be in use by early adopters. For example, Zoom wasn’t invented during the pandemic. It was already being used by a group of loyal fans when the pandemic hit. Ask yourself: Sustained behavior: Are there a lack of viable alternatives or substitutes to the behavior? Transformed behavior: Are there viable alternative solutions that meet the needs of the behavior? Collapsed behavior: Are there viable alternative activities that meet the needs of the behavior? One by one, take a look at each stakeholder and the critical behaviors that drive your business. Do you have reason to believe that this behavior will continue? Or does your analysis suggest that it just might fall away? In that case, it’s time to come up with a plan. You might find that you’re left with a few behaviors that are difficult to forecast. For example, will your customers shop in-store as a way of bonding with their children? Will domestic travel spike in popularity compared to international travel? In those cases, imagine what the company might do to succeed no matter whether the behavior sustains, transforms, or collapses. By wargaming different scenarios and adding in the known behaviors, you can develop a playbook to adapt regardless of what comes to pass. Get past the big existential questions and focus on your business. The brain gets foggy when we grapple with great uncertainty. We may feel like it’s impossible to plan for the future, and we forget that things can quickly change. In this moment, it’s critical to adapt a mindset of learning and discovery. Rather than trying to answer questions that don’t matter, we can rely on the well-researched theories that have mapped behavior change over long periods of time. And we can play out multiple scenarios so we’re ready regardless of the outcome. With that, it’s possible to come up with a radical plan that may even unlock a new era of growth in a post-Covid world. Source : Harvard Business Review
