"How safe is safe enough?" is a common question in the risk-benefit analysis including for the Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) sitting selection. Prospective sites for nuclear power plants should be chosen in locations that are as safe as possible from external potential hazards such as seismic and tectonic disasters. Nevertheless, the areas that are considered to have a low-risk probability are located in remote areas and far away from the electricity demand, and vice versa. There must be a trade-off by considering acceptable risk levels with other factors such as economics to deal with such problems. The risk level caused by geological factors can be reduced by geotechnical engineering methods. However, the higher geological disaster likelihood should be engineered using more expensive geotechnical engineering costs to reach the same risk level. This article generally discusses Indonesia's geological aspects, especially from tectonic and volcanology views. By looking at several indicators such as economic & population growth and the existing electricity conditions, the future electricity demand projection is forecasted to be used as the mapping for the areas with good prospects for future NPP development. This study shows that the areas along the northern islands of Java and Sumatra, alongside Boni Bay in Sulawesi and the coast of East Kalimantan, are high potential areas that require further studies to determine detailed geological characteristics to determine the optimal geotechnical techniques for the NPP construction. A sample of the implementation of geoengineering techniques is also shown by referring to the Muria Peninsula sitting as an example. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
