Boston, MA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/17/2014 --We are forecasting electricity generation in Indonesia to grow by 6.3% in 2014. This is lower than the 5-year historical average growth rate, which we attribute to slower economic growth and higher electricity prices. Our long-term growth forecasts for total electricity generation in Indonesia remain relatively unchanged, but we have significantly revised our long-term outlook for each of the different sources of electricity, based on a comprehensive review of the country's existing feedstock position and progress on the country's two Fast Track Programmes.

We are forecasting electricity generation in Indonesia to grow by 6.3% in 2014. This is lower than the five-year historical average growth rate of 7.0%, which we attribute to slower economic growth and higher electricity prices. The slowing economy had prompted us to revise down our 2013 electricity generation growth estimate from 7.2% to 7.1% in the previous quarter.

Our long-term growth forecasts for total electricity generation in Indonesia remain relatively unchanged, with generation expected to grow an average of 6.5% per annum between 2014 and 2023. However, we have significantly revised our long-term outlook for each of the different sources of electricity, based on a comprehensive review of the country's existing feedstock position and progress on the country's two Fast Track Programmes (FTPs). We expect the share of oil-fired generation to decrease significantly over our long-term forecast period (from 2014 to 2023), and see coal-fired generation and non-hydropower renewables replacing it.
