Indonesia Total Energy Consumption

Total consumption per capita is 1.1 toe, while electricity consumption per capita increased by nearly 4% in 2023, reaching 1.04 MWh.

Total energy consumption increased by 3% in 2023, after a surge in 2022 (+10%). It had declined by around 8% in 2020 and remained stable in 2021, despite an increase of 3.4%/year from 2013 to 2019.

Indonesia Crude Oil Production

Oil production has declined by 3%/year since 2010, with an acceleration since 2019 (5%/year), reaching 36.4 Mt in 2023. This decline is due to the depletion of the main fields and the lack of investments.

Indonesia became a net importer of crude oil in 2006. Net oil imports reached 38 Mt in 2023 (44% of which was crude oil and NGL).

Indonesia Oil Products Consumption

Oil consumption remained stable in 2023, after a 6%/year increase on 2020-2021. It declined by about 12% in 2020.

Transport absorbs 55% of that consumption; the remainder goes mainly to the residential, services, and agriculture sectors (13%), the hydrocarbon sector (13%), and industry (19%).

Indonesia Power Consumption

Electricity consumption has increased very rapidly apart from 2020 (by about 4%/year over 2013-2023), reaching 289 TWh in 2023.

Households account for 42% of the consumption. The share of services has been increasing regularly since 2017 (+4 pp), reaching nearly 27% in 2023. Industry covered 31% of electricity consumption in 2023.

Almost all households are electrified (99.8% in 2023, up from 84% in 2014), in line with the 100% goal initially set for 2020 and shifted to 2022.

Indonesia CO2 Fuel Combustion/CO2 Emissions

In its new updated NDC (2022), Indonesia slightly increased the country's unconditional emission reduction target from 29% in 2030 to 31.89% compared to the BAU scenario. Conditional emission reduction targets were raised from 41% to 43.2%, conditioned upon the attainment of global agreements such as bilateral co-operations, technology development and transfer, financial help, etc.
