Nuclear power in Indonesia. The program for nuclear power in Indonesia includes plans to build nuclear reactors in the country for peaceful purposes. Indonesia prohibited development of nuclear weapon or any offensive uses due to signing the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons on 2 March 1970 and ratified it as Law No. 8/1978 on ...
The Research Organization for Nuclear Energy ( Indonesian: Organisasi Riset Tenaga Nuklir, ORTN) is one of Research Organizations under the umbrella of the National Research and Innovation Agency ( Badan Riset dan Inovasi Nasional, BRIN). It was founded on 1 September 2021. The organization is the transformation of the National Nuclear Energy ...
Energy is released when a heavy nucleus breaks apart into two or more lighter nuclei. This energy is the internucleon potential energy that is released when the nuclear force no longer holds the charged nuclear fragments together. [3] [4] A quantitative description of the nuclear force relies on equations that are partly empirical. These ...
There are various types of potential energy, each associated with a particular type of force. For example, the work of an elastic force is called elastic potential energy; work of the gravitational force is called gravitational potential energy; work of the Coulomb force is called electric potential energy; work of the strong nuclear force or weak nuclear force acting on the baryon charge is ...
Indonesia aims to get 23% and 31% of its energy from renewable sources by 2025 and 2050 respectively. [51] In 2020, renewables has a 11.2% share of the national energy mix, with hydro and geothermal power making up most of this. [52] Despite its renewable energy potential, Indonesia is struggling to reach its renewable target.
Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions to produce electricity. Nuclear power can be obtained from nuclear fission, nuclear decay and nuclear fusion reactions. Presently, the vast majority of electricity from nuclear power is produced by nuclear fission of uranium and plutonium in nuclear power plants. Nuclear decay processes are used in ...
A sample of thorium. Thorium-based nuclear power generation is fueled primarily by the nuclear fission of the isotope uranium-233 produced from the fertile element thorium.A thorium fuel cycle can offer several potential advantages over a uranium fuel cycle [Note 1] —including the much greater abundance of thorium found on Earth, superior physical and nuclear fuel properties, and reduced ...
The Nuclear Energy Regulatory Agency (Indonesian: Badan Pengawas Tenaga Nuklir, BAPETEN) is an Indonesian non-Ministerial Government Institution (LPND) which is under and responsible to the President. BAPETEN has the tasks of implementing the surveillance of all activities of the use of nuclear energy in Indonesia through regulation, licensing ...
