Abstract

Ngurah Rai Mangrove Conservation Area is located in Badung Regency and Denpasar City, covering an area of 1,373.5 Ha. It has essential functions, one of which is to prevent abrasion that is likely to threaten Bali. On February 23, 2021, one of PLN’s subsidiaries, PT PLN Gas & Geothermal (PLNGG), and PT Dewata Energi Bersih (DEB) signed a Memorandum of Understanding for a feasibility study for the development of the Bali LNG Terminal. This collaboration is part of the effort to manifest the commitment to increase the use of clean and environmentally friendly energy. They were referring to the vision of “Nangun Sat Kerthi Loka Bali”, in which energy infrastructure development needs to be environmentally friendly and prioritize the value of local wisdom to maintain the sanctity and harmony of Bali’s nature. In the future, it is expected that the construction of the LNG Terminal infrastructure will be able to supply gas to the Pesanggaran Diesel and Gas Power Plant (PLTDG) in early 2023. However, the residents of Intaran Village rejected this project because they were concerned it would destroy the Mangrove Forest ecosystem in the Ngurah Rai Mangrove Conservation area. Furthermore, the resident believes this project is not by the Regional Regulation (Perda) regarding the amendment to Regional Regulation No. 16 of 2009 concerning the Bali Province’s Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW) for 2009–2029.
