ABSTRACT
The Jeneponto Steam Power Plant is the largest 2 unit coal-fired power plant in South Sulawesi with a total capacity of 520MW. Unfortunately, this plant emits a large number of greenhouse gases (GHG), especially CO2, which are detrimental to human health. Therefore, this research aims to determine CO2 emissions from 2013-2019 and estimate possible ways to reduce them from 2020-2029 using the mass balance method to link emissions to its sources' activity measurement. The data shows that a total of 12.39 million tonnes of CO2 were emitted from 2013 to 2019. This data was obtained using the Chronological Production Modeling System (PROSYM) software to calculate, analyze and compare the emissions from various types of coal calories used in the Jeneponto Coal-Fired Power Plant. Furthermore, it is estimated that CO2 emission from 2020 to 2029 is likely to reach 31.551 million tonnes. In addition, the coal was replaced from sub-bituminous to bituminous because, according to the technical specifications of the plant, there was a significant reduction in emissions compared to current coal, bituminous with emissions of 30.658 million tons (EF=1.02), anthracite of 32.069 million tons (EF=1.06), and lignite of 32.943 million tons (EF=1.09). However, this is still smaller than the average emission factor standard for coal power plants in Indonesia according to the UNDP study.
