This paper states why energy insecurity is a problem in Indonesia‚ how it was identified‚ its causes and the current responses to solve this problem. The engineering solutions would focus on sustainability and affordability‚ without compromising future generation energy needs in Indonesia. International Energy Agency defines energy security as the “uninterrupted availability of energy sources at affordable prices”. Currently Indonesia faces the lack of long term energy security. This is evident

Raza Gardezi) 30 December 2010 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Pakistan is currently facing a power deficit estimated at 4000 MW - 5000 MW. To tide over the significant electricity shortages in the country‚ the Government of Pakistan planned to add 4‚225 MW of generating capacity in 2009 against which the achievement was a meager 151 MW. There were many reasons for the failure of the 2009 capacity addition plan e.g. delays in Independent Power Projects (IPPs) due to a local and

Dependency of Fossil Fuels The flip of a switch‚ turn of a key‚ or the press of a button is all it takes to power up almost everything today. One simple motion holds the key to our future and unlocks our past‚ but at what price? With sources that were once thought to be endless‚ energy consumption and its byproducts has now become a front runner among debates. A far sight from the campfire and miles away from its full potential what does tomorrow hold for energy consumption and its

About half of those imports came from nations located in the Western Hemisphere. The world currently faces a shrinking petroleum based energy supply and a rapidly growing pollution problem as a result of the dependency on petroleum. Countries around the world increasingly have to compete with each other in order to secure petroleum based energy resources. China and India
