<![CDATA[The 50 MW PLTMG Sumbawa 3 project is included in the RUPTL 2025–2034 to strengthen the Tambora isolated subsystem, whose reserve margin declined to 0.8% in 2024 and 1.4% in 2025. PT PLN (Persero) currently evaluates investments using the Kelayakan Keuangan (KKF) framework, a deterministic Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model that ignores uncertainty and interdependence among key cost drivers. This study develops a four-layer investment evaluation framework combining strategic analysis (PESTEL, Porter’s Five Forces, SWOT, VRIO), deterministic DCF, sensitivity analysis, and Monte Carlo simulation with 10,000 iterations. Four stochastic variables, LNG price, IDR/USD exchange rate, HSD price, and fixed O&M cost, were modeled under independent and correlated assumptions. The deterministic evaluation indicates feasibility, with an NPV of IDR 276.85 billion, IRR of 9.13%, BCR of 1.03, and a 10.14-year payback period. However, Monte Carlo simulation reveals an 82.08% probability of negative NPV, with a mean NPV of negative IDR 1.42 trillion. The exchange rate and LNG price explain over 99% of the variance in NPV. Results support conditional project approval through LNG price hedging, tariff adjustment mechanisms, accelerated gasification, and mandatory correlation-aware Monte Carlo analysis for future LNG-based generation investments.]]>
