"The decline in the use of fuel oil in 2012 is in line with the increasing target of fuel mix usage and gas supply," PLN President Director Nur Pamuji said after attending a meeting at the State Enterprises Ministry here on Tuesday.
He said the company had set the target of fuel mix for 2012 at 17.73 percent, down significantly from this year`s 27.4 percent.
The tight target of fuel mix would support the effort to achieve the production cost target of Rp1,166/kWh for 2012, down 13.2 percent from the estimate of realized production cost for this year, he said.
He said the target of coal consumption for 2012 had been set at 39.6 million tons, up 34 percent from the 2011 forecast and the target of gas consumption at 356.36 TBTU, up 25 percent from the estimate of gas consumption in 2011.
One of PLN`s priority programs in 2012 was to lower production cost by focusing on maximizing the electricity production of non-fuel oil power plants, he said.
The company`s sales target for 2012 was 172.17 kWh, with power consumption growth projected at 9.78 percent for 2012, he said.
PLN has set the target of total income for 2012 at Rp150 trillion for 2012.
