Indonesia has abundant coal resources, but in 2013, Indonesia’s coal exports began to weaken which resulted in a decrease in the economic level in the coal mining sector, especially the use of coal in the country is very small when compared with the amount of coal exports. Indonesia’s largest coal importing country, China, is beginning to reduce its use of coal for its energy sector, as China is committed to greenhouse gas emissions at the Convention on Agreement or UNFCCC (The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) by replacing the main coal fuels with renewable energy. Not only China, but also Indonesia also committed in the agreement. This means that the use of fuel and also environmentally friendly technology will continue to be developed in Indonesia. On the other hand Indonesia can not leave abundant coal resources. Consequently, there is a need for attention in the utilization of coal by integrating coal and low-carbon technologies, one of which is BECCS (Biomass Energy and Carbon Capture Storage) which is the main topic in this research. In this research, we want to see the potential of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) mitigation efforts in the power generation sector with low-carbon technology in 2015 to 2050, by making scenarios as achievements of desired targets, such as BAUS (Counter Bussiness As Usual), CM1 (Countermeasures 1 ), CM2 (Countermeasures 2), and CM3 (Countermeasures 3), using the AIM / end-use energy model developed by Japan’s National Institute for Environmental Studies (NIES).
In conclusion, the resulting CO2 emissions increase in the BL scenario by 7% annually, with total emissions in the year 2050 of 3,661 Mtoe, CM1 scenario of 5% per year with total emissions in 2050 of 1,767 Mtoe, and CM2 scenario of 2% with total emissions in 2050 765 Mtoe. CO2 emissions generated, other than stored in storage (CCS) can also be used for raw materials in various industries, and can also be used for Enhancment Oil Recovery (EOR) purposes in the oil and gas industry. Meanwhile, for the largest energy use in CCS of 1,315 Mtoe in 2050 in the CM2 scenario, for the largest coal energy use in 2050 is on a BL scenario of 915 Mtoe, with coal being converted into electricity of only 280 Mtoe.
