Abstract

In 2017, global cumulative solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity reached almost 398 GW and generated over 460 TWh. However, total installed solar PV in Indonesia is only 0.017 GWp from the potential capacity of 207.9 GWp. To push the development of solar PV capacity, the government stipulated Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation Number 49 of 2018 on Solar Photovoltaic System Utilization by customers of PT PLN. The energy exported is converted by 65% for non-industrial customers. For industrial customers, it is subject to capacity charges and emergency energy charges. The objectives of this research are to evaluate the implementation of the rooftop PV policy, then to observe alternative solutions to optimize it. The program evaluation method is used. Data obtained through interviews, FGD, and literature reviews. The analysis is done qualitatively and quantitively. The results are challenges on implementing rooftop faced by utilities (existing system condition), consumers (65% not appealing), and government (untracked systems); what are the alternative solutions; how to overcome the intermittent issue.
