Summary: | One of the most striking issues is that electricity capacity growth in Indonesia has
lagged behind the pace of electricity demand growth, leading to power
shortages and a low electrification ratio. This study attempts to prove the
causal relationship between electricity comsumption and economic growth (1944-
2010) and to explore some economic and spatial patterns of electricity
consumption (1993-2010) in 14 PLN�s distributive regions and 6 economic
corridors. Apart of that, a political economic analysis on electricity tariff policy is
also performed based on quantitative and qualitative data collected during indepth
interview and snow ball sampling technique.
Using modified Granger causality tests with Error Correction Model (ECM) and
time series data within the period of 1984-2010, the findings shows that there is
a unidirectional short run relationship moving from electricity consumption to
GDP per capita for Indonesia. The causality test for Sumatra corridor also shows
the same result as Indonesia. However, the causality of Kalimantan corridor
shows the opposite direction of Indonesia�s and Sumatra economic corridor�s.
Typology and discriminant analyses prove to be useful as the basis
to integrate the formulation of regional electricity development policy.
More importantly, Indonesia can enhance the performance of regions by taking
into account the spatial dimension of population, industrialization, electricity
development and poverty. The findings in this study offer some insights about
spatial aspect of the Indonesia�s electricity consumption and regional economies
which do carry some implication on regional development. By applying economic
and spatial dimension, this analysis pioneers the study
of Indonesia�s electricity consumption that incorporates geography into electricity
and regional development policy. Based on the findings, further analysis are
performed from the perpective of the political economic to understand why the
electricity tariff accross all regions in Indonesia is set to be homogeneous,
regardless of the fact that economic and characteristic among regions are proven
to be different.
Finally, the findings suggest that fundamental changes in electricity and regional
development policies are required. More importantly, Indonesia needs electricity
and development policy that incorporate regional variations in terms of
population, industrialisation, electricity development and poverty to enhance
the performance of regions by taking into account the spatial dimension of
dominant factors in terms of electric consumption and economic growth. The
findings and the analysis in this study offer some insights about spatial and
political economic aspect of the Indonesia�s electricity consumption and
regional development.
