Dependence on Suralaya power plant threatens Java-Bali grid stability
The National Energy Council DEN has issued a warning that the significant reliance on the aging Suralaya coal-fired power plant poses a risk to Indonesia's national electricity system. A major disruption at the Suralaya complex, which is the backbone of the interconnected Java-Madura-Bali power grid, could lead to widespread blackouts across Java and Bali and undermine investor confidence. DEN member Satya Widya Yudha highlighted that the Suralaya complex, Indonesia's largest coal-fired power complex, supplies a substantial share of electricity to the country's most economically important region. An inspection revealed that the generating capacity of Suralaya's seven units, some nearly 40 years old, has decreased from 3,600 megawatts to approximately 3,400 MW. Recent electricity outages in parts of Java, lasting two to five hours, have raised concerns about the power network's resilience. Satya noted that prolonged power disruptions could negatively impact Indonesia's appeal for investors, particularly for industries like data centers that require uninterrupted electricity supplies. While the average annual duration of power outages improved to 0.77 hours in 2025, the frequency of interruptions increased from six incidents in 2024 to an average of 7.45 in 2025, indicating more frequent but shorter outages.
