Abstract. Geothermal potentials in Indonesia could generate up to 6000 electric MW. To exploit this
potential source of exploitation efforts required geothermal energy for electricity, especially for areas west of
Java.Geothermal Power Plant in principle the same as Steam Power Plant, the difference in steam power plant
built in surface using a boiler, whereas steam coming from reservoir geothermal. While wellhead fluid in the
form of steam phase, the steam can channeled directly to the turbine, and then the turbine will change the heat
energy into energy of motion that will turn a generator to produce energy electricity. If the geothermal fluid from
the wellhead as a fluid mixture two phases (steam phase and liquid phase) is first carried out the separation
process fluid. This is possible by passing the fluid into the separator, so that the steam phase will be separated
from the liquid phase.
By utilizing the data of geology, geochemistry, and geophysical methods to investigate the source of
geothermal power that can be utilized, and using comparative method and Volumetric method the prediction of
electrical energy that can be generated. Before next steps exploitation of geothermal energy sources we predict
the amount of electrical energy of geothermal resource.
Keywords : geothermal, electricity, volumetrik, comparative.
