In National Energy Policy, Indonesia is determined to reduce the use of artifact energy, and continue to promote and increase the use of new renewable energy that is used by 23 percent for electricity and transportation in 2025. Bio-energy contributed to 10 percent, Geothermal contributed to 7 percent, Hydro contributed to 3 percent and other new renewable energy contributed to 3 percent. During this time, portfolio/energy mix target had not reached, as in 2015, only reach 5% and in 2016 reach 7 percent. To achieve the national energy resilience, government put geothermal as one of the supplies of pillar energy in the (National Medium-term Development Plan) RPJMN document. Beside government had promoted renewable energy as one of national strategy for instance to determine the energy policy and regulations for sustainable development but the result was not satisfied enough. The current article would explore the renewable energy governance in Indonesia that focused on the geothermal energy. The implementation of various policies, regulations, and programs should increase the awareness of the importance of renewable energy role in the sustainable development system. The transparency of fair governance and the participation of the stakeholders of development therefore it was a must.

In this paper, the author focuses on the fundamental hypothesis that the adoption of a concept of regional sustainable development and the use of renewable energy sources are preconditions to organising an acceptable regional tourism offering based on an eco-philosophy The renewable development of tourism regions is the basic framework for research regarding opportunities for introducing renewable energy sources such as hydro energy, wind power, solar energy, geothermal energy, and biomass energy. The purpose of this paper is to indicate the real opportunities that exist for substituting conventional energy sources with renewable ones and the role of renewables in regional development from economic, environmental and sociological viewpoints. It should also be noted that renewable energy sources have a strong regional importance and can contribute significantly to local employment.

The article is aimed at developing strategic directions and introducing regulatory measures for the formation of Ukraine’s energy policy on the principles of energy saving and the development of renewable energy industry. On the basis of scientific works, the main organizational-economic vectors of energy industry sector development are systematized, which are associated with the formation of a favorable socio-political climate regarding the priority of using renewable energy sources in the fuel and energy complex; development of effective methods of both the State-based and the market-based regulation by the world community; coordination of the strategy of sustainable development of the world economy. It is determined that the energy saving policy should be based on a flexible combination of the State-based regulation and the market environment for the formation of the most acceptable stimulation mechanisms in the specific economic and political situations, which allows for the greatest economic benefit. It has been found out that the implementation of energy saving processes is impossible without the mass use of renewable energy carriers, which are a universal resource for processing to the right types of energy, are marked by energy independence related to obtaining economic benefits and contribute to the creation of an ecological friendly environment. In the perspective, the energy saving processes, the transition of the national economy to wide implementation in the production of high-tech technologies and the use of renewable energy sources should become the determining factors of Ukraine’s energy strategy.

ABSTRACTIndonesia has geothermal potential is so great, which is a buried treasure and needs to be managed to achieve the target of energy security in the future. Therefore, the research was conducted in order to study why the potential is so great so far only managed about 4% from 40% in the world. National Energy Policy which has declared that in 2025 Indonesia adds energy mix originating from Renewable Energy by 23% and the role of Geothermal at 9%, is yet to show its full geothermal in Indonesia, while the Energy Policy in 2050 Indonesia declared already in Energy Security conditions. This research was conducted with the observation in  location of Mount Salak geothermal power plants and geothermal policy examined in the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, PT PLN Tbk and Pertamina Geothermal Energy also PT Star Energy, interviews were conducted with Vice President of Indonesia, vice chairman of the Commission VII of the House of Representatives and 9 expert geothermal, 1 player employers geothermal, as well as the head of the area and multiple stakeholders at national and regional. Teh result could be categorized into key themes in relation to geothermal legislation, royalties, research and incentive policies fiscal and non-fiscal. This research resulted in several conclusions and recommendations to stakeholders in order to carry out a policy in the development of geothermal energy, so that Indonesia can achieve Energy Security. as well as the head of the area and multiple stakeholders at national and regional.ABSTRAKIndonesia memiliki potensi panas bumi yang begitu besar, yang merupakan harta karun yang terpendam dan perlu dikelola untuk mencapai target ketahanan energi di masa datang. Oleh karena itu penelitian  dilakukan dengan tujuan meneliti mengapa potensi yang begitu besar sampai saat ini hanya dikelola sekitar 4 % dari 40% yang ada di dunia. Kebijakan Energi Nasional yang telah mencanangkan bahwa tahun 2025 Indonesia menambah bauran energi yang berasal dari Renewable Energy sebesar 23% dan peran Panas Bumi sebesar 9%, ini belum menunjukkan maksimalnya pengusahaan panas bumi di Indonesia, sedangkan dalam Kebijakan Energi pada tahun 2050 Indonesia menyatakan sudah dalam kondisi Ketahanan Energi. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan pengamatan  di 1 bh lokasi PLTP yaitu PLTP Gunung Salak dan meneliti kebijakan panas bumi di kementrian ESDM , PT PLN dan Pertamina Geothermal Energy serta PT Star Energy, wawancara dilakukan dengan Wakil presiden RI , wakil ketua Komisi VII DPR RI dan  9 orang  ahli panas bumi, 1 orang pemain pengusaha panas bumi, serta kepala daerah dan  beberapa pemangku kepentingan di pusat dan daerah. Hasinyal dikategorikan ke dalam tema kunci dalam kaitannya dengan undang-undang panas bumi, royalti, penelitian dan kebijakan insentif fiskal dan non-fiskal. Penelitian ini menghasilkan beberapa kesimpulan dan rekomendasi kepada stake holders agar melakukan sebuah kebijakan dalam pengembangan panas bumi, sehingga Indonesia dapat mencapai Ketahanan Energi.

Renewable energy sources are now essential to establish sustainable development. This paper examines one kind of source the geothermal energy. For geothermal energy when combined with a heat pump COP can be used for evaluation. For solely geothermal sources different approach is needed thus in the paper, a new geothermal heat production coefficient is used to examine the operational feasibility. For the assessment, many hypothetical buildings were created to model their heat demands. Two types of calculation methods are used for heat demand calculation. Based on the results, the maximum depth of a geothermal borehole and economically critical qualitative coefficient was concluded.

One of the main goals for sustainable development of a country is providing sustainable energy resources, which means satisfying the current needs for energy without compromising the future generations. Moreover, sustainable energy resources primarily involve greater inclusion of renewable energy sources. The biomass is the most widely used renewable energy source, mainly because of its relatively low price and its availability. However, in order for the biomass to stay a renewable energy source, it must be used rationally and with a plan, which primarily requires a detailed analysis of the current situation and resources. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to calculate the optimal utilization of biomass in energy purposes, taking into account the sustainable development of a country. As an example, in this paper Macedonia is considered. A detailed analysis of the data sources related to biomass is made and several different indicators that describe the current situation in Macedonia are presented. Furthermore, several scenarios are defined in this paper in order to calculate the optimal share of biomass in the overall energy mix in Macedonia for the next 20 years, using the MARKAL model.
