        "summary": "PLN President Director Darmawan Prasodjo has confirmed that rolling blackouts in Java have ceased since 21 June 2026. The state electricity company has strengthened the power system by securing additional medium-to-high calorie coal supplies. This measure, along with a planned 4.6 GW capacity increase by 2027, aims to ensure the reliability of Java's electricity grid.",
        "content": "<p>The President Director of PT PLN (Persero), Darmawan Prasodjo, has\nensured that there will be no more power outages in Java, as the company\nstrengthens the electricity system to prevent such incidents from\nrecurring.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe condition of the electricity system, especially in Java, has\nseen no more rotational power outages since 21 June 2026,\u201d Darmawan\nstated in Jakarta on Thursday during a Hearing Session with Commission\nXII of the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR RI).<\/p>\n<p>Darmawan noted that PLN will maintain and anticipate power outages in\nJava through a system reliability enhancement programme, planned in\naccordance with the directives of the Minister of Energy and Mineral\nResources (ESDM).<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the maintenance of the electricity system involves\nincreasing the supply of medium to high-calorific coal\u2014specifically\n4,500 calories and above. This supply, allocated specifically for PLN\nfrom the Ministry of ESDM, amounts to 1.8 million tonnes \u201con top\u201d of the\nexisting supply for July.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFurthermore, there will be 3 million tonnes per month from August to\nDecember, resulting in an additional supply capacity of 5 gigawatts (GW)\nabove the existing 35.9 GW,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Darmawan added that this increase in electricity supply will make the\nelectricity system in Java significantly more reliable.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, he continued, there will be an additional 4.6 GW of\nelectricity supply in 2027. This addition will ensure that the system in\nJava, which previously experienced rotational outages, will immediately\nbecome much more dependable.<\/p>\n<p>Darmawan acknowledged that, by volume, the percentage of national\nlow-calorific coal production was previously smaller than high-calorific\ncoal. However, over time, the production of low-calorific coal has\nincreased, while the production of medium and high-calorific coal has\nbeen declining.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith these measures, the energy supply constraints that previously\noccurred in Java have been corrected, and the rotational power outages\nhave been successfully resolved,\u201d he added.<\/p>",
