Abstract

Geodipa is a joint venture between PT Pertamina Geothermal Energy (PGE) and PT PLN (Persero) that focuses on geothermal development in Dieng, Central Java, for geothermal power plant (PLTP) operations, providing environmentally friendly electricity. However, there has been resistance to geothermal development, which requires deeper investigation. This study aims to analyze: (1) The emergence of resistance to geothermal development in the Dieng area; (2) The forms of community resistance against this development. This research adopts a qualitative approach with a case study design. The findings reveal three main factors triggering the resistance: (1) The negative environmental impacts of geothermal activities; (2) Technical operational issues; (3) The conversion of agricultural land to PT Geodipa's use, which has not been fully accepted by the community. Despite these challenges, the geothermal development continues, with resistance managed through policies by the Karangtengah Village government, which successfully addressed some issues, such as relocating the power plant site and increasing employment opportunities. Additionally, the World Bank supported the project with a $35 billion loan in 2019, without further intervention. The community's resistance has not hindered the project's progress, and geothermal development by PT Geodipa continues as planned.
