Video: 100 Years of Geothermal in Indonesia, PGE Accelerates Geothermal Development as Renewable Energy

PT Pertamina Geothermal Energy (PGE) has reaffirmed its commitment to developing geothermal energy in Indonesia, supporting the energy transition whilst strengthening national energy security. PGE notes that 2026 marks the 100-year milestone of geothermal development in Indonesia, which began in 1926 with the Kamojang Geothermal Power Plant in Garut, West Java, a facility that remains operational to this day. This demonstrates that geothermal power plants serve as a sustainable and stable source of clean energy, capable of providing base load for the national electricity grid and reducing Indonesia’s dependence on fossil fuels.
