Abstract :
Sumatra Power System as second largest system in Indonesia with abundant sustainable energy sources currently has a fuel mix that is still dominated by fossil fuels. To anticipate oil price in global market and to decrease subsidize level, Indonesian government in 2007 has launched 10,000 MW Fast Track Program Phase I to develop Coal Based Power Plant. Reducing greenhouse effect and considering least cost production principle; in 2010 the Government issued Fast Track Program Phase II to construct 10.000 MW sustainable energy power plants predominantly by geothermal energy sources. This paper presents but not limited to Sustainable energy resource capacity and also Sumatra Fuel Mix compared to Energy resources in Sumatra power System.
