There is No Final Solution to Prevent Coal Supply Crisis

Until now there has been no final and permanent solution from the government to prevent the coal supply crisis for domestic power plants.

The tug-of-war to meet domestic demand for coal is still going on. Deputy Chairperson of Commission VII DPR, Maman Abdurrahman explained, the results of the opinion meeting with the Directorate General of Mineral and Coal of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) and PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (Persero) are still looking for a permanent solution to overcome the coal supply crisis in the electricity sector. From the permanent solution, it is hoped that there will be no more incidents of coal export bans issued by the government some time ago. "Balancing the interests of coal exports for foreign exchange and meeting the domestic needs of coal for electricity. So, the solution must be to accommodate and accommodate all interests," said Maman during an opinion meeting, Tuesday (18/1/2022), at the DPR Complex, Jakarta. According to Maman, during the hearing, VII DPR also asked PLN to strictly improve the supply chain of the steam power plant (PLTU). PLN is also expected to contract with mining business permit holders (IUP), not with traders, and audit PLN Coal comprehensively.
