SBY opens coal-fired power plant, pushes for more alternative energy

The Jakarta Post, Jakarta, Fri, 07/29/2011

President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono on Friday said the proportion of geothermal energy in the second phase of the 10,000 megawatt project should be augmented.

"Do not just [adjust the contributions] from coal-fired power plants," the President said in Palembang, South Sumatra, on Friday at the groundbreaking of the Mulut Tambang Banjarsari coal-fired power plant (PLTU) in Lahat.

He added that increasing the contribution from geothermal energy power plants should be increased as part of efforts to rely more on renewable energy, kompas.com reported.
