Feasibility Study for a Wave Energy Pilot Project in Indonesia 

Partners: Ingine Wave Energy Systems Ltd (Lead), Ingine Inc., Pt. Indonesia Power, University Of The Highlands And Islands

Country: Indonesia

Technology: Other energy access technology (wave energy)

Stage: Early

Stage: 9

There is a huge potential for ocean energy in Indonesia to generate electricity. The main beneficiaries of planned wave power plants are coastal communities from relatively traditional fishery villages and farms on the coastlines to replace the unstably priced, pollutive diesel generator with clean, affordable and constant wave energy power.

INWAVE is an onshore-type Wave Energy Converter, suitable for shoreline and remote islands, with simple, scalable & sustainable technology. It is competitive with expensive diesel generators.

The object of the proposed feasibility study is to prepare for the feasible construction and commissioning of a Wave Energy Pilot Plant in Nusa Tenggara province, Eastern Indonesia, where renewable energy demand is high. Through appropriate surveys and assessments, the Feasibility Study is expected to yield guidelines concerning significant technical, social, economic, and environmental aspects of the project.
