Executive summary
Many people in Indonesia, like in many developing countries, have lack of access to economical and convenient energy sources. For various reasons, energy services provided by the government or the private sector are difficult to access by those living in remote areas. When accessible, the communities mostly the poor are burdened by the expensive price of the services, leading to an even more economically vulnerable state. Although sustainable energy services will not solve the underlying cause of poverty, its limited availability will hinder the pathway to prosperity. At the same time, many communities have an abundance of local renewable energy resources, which remain uptapped because of necessary initial investment costs or simply lack of knowledge and understanding on their possible uses. One such underused energy source in many parts of Indinesia is biogas based on animal manure. As part of the program CASINDO (Capacity strengthening for development and energy policy formulation and implementation of sustainable energy projects in Indonesia), more specifically TWG IV on Renewable Energy Development Project, household biogas will be developed in Segoroyoso village in the province of Yogyakarta. Segoroyoso Village is one of the villages located at the south of Pleret sub District and is located about 40 km from Yogyakarta,. In the Segoroyoso village there are 573 cow breeders with around 1505 cows, that is an important potential for development of Biogas in the village. Based on the data survey of livestocks, we can assume the number of cattle ranchers who could build a biogas digester is around 60-100 people. From this assumption we can then design a plan for the implementation of 60 units of biogas digesters between the years 2011 2014. Most importantly, biogas development in Segoroyoso is supported by HIVOS BIRU Programme which has a working partner in Bantul Paluma and village level government, district and provincial government. Many people feel that a biogas installation is not cheap. Therefore, to reduce the financial burden, the BIRU program has established cooperation with financial institutions like banks which provide access to soft loan facilities. This program also provides an investment incentive in the form of a direct subsidy to prospective users. Another thing that can be done is for the household to provide some of the required material as a contribution in kind, so it would be less financially burdensome for a household to pay for the construction of a biogas digester. Biogas users get protection against the errors of development, with a warranty for 3 years for the reactor and other components 1 year warranty. Additionally, the

BIRU program also integrates the role of rural development NGOs with government, private-run agricultural sector, and live cattle business. Implementing biogas digesters in the village will have broad effects of health conditions and job creation as well as the local economy, social benefits to adopting the proposed technology and environmental benefit. Among others it will strengthen the integration of agriculture and cattle breeding for the improvement of agricultural resources, create jobs in the biogas construction sector, reduce the burden of women to collect firewood and facilitates alternative additional activities to fill the time available, especially for female family members, reducing deforestation, controlling greenhouse gas emissions from livestock and organic waste disposal.

horses, while small livestock includes goats, sheep, and pigs. Poultry consists of broiler, duck, and quail. For Casindo TWG IV activities, several areas in Bantul regency were surveyed and the selected location was chosen because of its untapped potential for renewable energy and the existence of small scale home industry, which could be further developed by utilizing renewable energy sources. The selected location is the Segoroyoso Village, in the Pleret sub district.
Picture 2.2. Location of Segoroyoso Village Segoroyoso Village is one of the villages located at the south of Pleret subdistrict and is located about 40 km from Yogyakarta, from which the village can be easily reached by traveling overland with a travel time of about 45 minutes. Segoroyoso Village profile : Area (Ha) Number of residents Number of households Average number of persons per household Population density per km2 : 487.09 Ha : 7929 : 2449 : 3,23 : 1627
Segoroyoso village has an area of 487.09 hectares. The land is divided into a rice field area of 222.46 ha, dry land area of 132.8 ha, garden area of 94.05 ha and other land use covering an area of 37.78 ha. 2.2

The difference between energy expenses of households in classes 3 and 4 can be explained by their different sources of livelihood. Households in class 4 need diesel fuel to provide their service, so their energy expenses are higher compared to households in class 3. 2.5. Current energy provision The main sources of household energy for cooking are firewood and LPG. Fuel wood is obtained from nearby forest while the supply of LPG comes from the small LPG agent or at the small shop at the traditional market. Electricity for lighting is obtained from PLN, to which almost 100 % of the village households are connected. The type of power connections for electricity are 450 VA and 900 VA / household. Fire wood is also the main energy source used in small industries for processing rambak. They use wood for the fire, because they need large and even fire, for shorter cooking time. The price of fuel wood per bundle is around Rp.15,000. 2.6. Estimate of total demand for the proposed technology Biogas technology was proposed as alternative to expensive LPG for cooking in Segoroyoso village. In Segoroyoso there are 573 cow breeders with around 1505 cows. Figure 2.4 shows that cows are the largest livestock population at Segoroyoso Village.

Figure 2.4. Distribution of large livestock in Segoroyoso Village From figure 2.4 it can be seen that in Segoroyoso, the cow population represents some 94% of all large livestock, while the percentage of horses is only 6%. Large livestock in Segoroyoso is divided between 3 larger groups of farmers and 20 small farmer groups. Livestock waste is a potential energy source large enough to be used as a source of biogas. Based on survey answers of 40 households, the following distribution of number of livestock per farmer can be seen:
In the figure 2.5 we can see that 45% of farmers have more than 3 cows in their household, and another 40% have exactly 3. These farmers are a potential target group for developing household biogas digesters.

Goat Sheep
Figure 2.6. Distribution of small livestock in Segoroyoso Village From figure 2.6 can be seen that at Segoroyoso, sheep represent 85% of small livestock and the goat population about 15%. Small livestock is also a potential source of feedstock for biogas. The survey also showed that in Segoroyoso Village, only a small part of the community has knowledge about biogas. From the graph 2.7 below we can see that only 30% of respondents had some previous knowledge about biogas, while 70% of respondents did not.

Picture 2.9. Respondents opinions about biogas construction costs Based on the data and the graphs above, we can assume the number of cattle ranchers who could build a biogas digester is around 60-100 people. From this assumption we can then design a plan for the implementation of biogas digesters between the years 2011 2014. Table 2.9.

These past 25 years, domestic biogas has been widely accepted in Asia. Nepal and Vietnam are acknowledged as representing success stories by other countries such as China, India, and other Asian countries which have also embraced biogas . The success of these programs is due to a market-based approach, involvement of a range of stakeholders and an emphasis on quality control The biogas technology usage directly contributes to improved living conditions in rural households especially for children and women. It also creates employment opportunities by opening up business ventures and sectors (ranging from suppliers to masons). Other benefits include time and cost effective methods such as the reduction of unrenewable - firewood, and also of coal and fossil fuel use which has proven to be harmful for both the environment as well as peoples health. Biogas also promotes organic living through the use of fully organic bio-slurry which increases soil fertility resulting in higher agri- and horticultural yields affecting local economical growth. 3.2. Introduction to the BIRU Programme The CASINDO team in Yogyakarta has partnered-up with the BIRU programme to implement the selected renewable energy technology, in this case household biogas digesters, starting with one pilot project at Segoroyoso. The Indonesian Domestic Biogas Programme (IDBP) is in Indonesia better known as the BIRU Programme. BIRU means blue and is an acronym of Biogas Rumah, which can be translated as biogas for the home. In 2008 a feasibility study was undertaken to assess the potential for a national domestic biogas programme in Indonesia. The report which was discussed by stakeholders in February 2009, was received well and a proposal was developed as a trigger to start implementation. Based on earlier experience in other countries the BIRU Programme aims to disseminate domestic biodigesters as a local, sustainable energy source through the development of a commercial, market oriented sector. Implementation of the programme is in the hands of Hivos, a Dutch NGO, working together with the Indonesian Government, (DGEEU), SNV Netherlands Development Organization and Rabobank Foundation. Funding for the Programme comes from the Dutch Embassy. The BIRU Programme started in May 2009, got support from an SNV Senior Advisor as from August 2009 and has gradually built up its staff which currently counts around 28 persons, of which 18 are posted in provincial offices. When fully developed the BIRU programme will employ around 56 team members, will have up to 30 construction partners with ca. 240 masons and supervisors, aiming at developing the biogas sector able to build at least 8,000 biogas plants before the end of 2012.
3.2
Renewable Energy Project Development Biogas Construction Plan - Segoroyoso Village CASINDO-Yogyakarta Region
The overall development objective of the Indonesia Domestic Biogas Programme is to disseminate domestic bio-digesters as a local, sustainable energy source through the development of a commercial, market oriented sector in selected Indonesian provinces The purpose of the program is to improve living conditions of households in a maximum of eight Indonesian provinces, with a minimum target of 8,000 domestic biogas digesters to be constructed which is hoped to bring a wide array of multiple benefits. Biogas plants are being constructed in selected districts of 6 provinces. These provinces are East Java, Central Java, Yogjakarta, West Java, Lombok and Bali. Through the Indonesian Domestic Biogas Programme, the Government of the Netherlands allocated 656,535 EUR to enable the establishment of a marketoriented, feasible and self-reliant biogas sector. The farmers have to pay a considerable amount (around 60 to 80 %) of the cost of digesters themselves. The farmers can get many benefits from biodigesters and therefore they are a powerful tool to raise awareness among the farming communities.1 The BIRU Programme has paid a lot of attention to training, including: a. Mason training: Until now the programme has trained 148 masons and 22 supervisors of 18 construction partners. b. Internal staff development training: mainly focused on training of national and provincial staff to empower them to implement the programme activities; c. Training of Trainers: for construction partners to enable them to undertake user training and slurry processing activities; d. Refresher training for masons, especially to enhance their plumbing skills and the use of high quality appliances; e. Technical training: this biogas training for government officials working with the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources is scheduled to take place monthly, but takes usually place bi-monthly and is provided by the SNV senior advisor; f. Biogas training: for TEDC, an education institute which develops training curriculae for vocational schools and supports IDBP in provision of biogas training for masons; Currently there is a growing need for management training for construction partners, as well as manure management training for managers of construction partners.

3.3. Technology description The technology selected for BIRU is the fixed-dome reactor, which is an adaptation of existing systems used in other countries such as Bangladesh, Cambodia, Laos, Pakistan, Nepal, and Vietnam. This fixed-dome reactor is made from masonry and concrete work concealed underground. The system is proven to be environmentally friendly and a clean energy source. In Nepal, this technology is used in over 200 thousand households for more than 15 years, with 95% of the reactors currently still functioning. The fixed dome biogas plant has a minimum lifetime of 15 years if properly used and maintained. Maintenance is easy, it merely requires the occasional checking and if necessary repair of pipes and fittings. To operate one unit, the farmer needs to have at least 3 cows or 7 pigs (or a flock of 170 poultry) to produce enough feed for the reactor to be able to generate sufficient gas to meet their daily basic cooking and lighting needs. There are 6 main parts to the digester: a) inlet (mixing tank) where animal dung is inserted to feed the digester, b) reactor (anaerobic/non-oxygenated digester chamber), c) gas storage (storage dome), d) outlet (divider chamber), e) gas carrier system f) bio-slurry pit or the animal dung compost pit which has been reduced of any gas (deducted of all gases). Pictures 3.1 and 3.2 provide an overview of the complete installation.

Picture 3.2. A household biogas installation The technical design of a typical biogas reactor of the BIRU program is shown in the following figure :
Renewable Energy Project Development Biogas Construction Plan - Segoroyoso Village CASINDO-Yogyakarta Region
The model used is based on the model of cement biodigester in Nepal (SNI Indonesia). The household size reactors can be of 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 m3 . The use of this biogas reactor technology is still limited to cooking, not for lighting. It can meet the cooking needs of small and medium households and small businesses. With proper care, biogas reactors are expected to stay safe for 20 - 30 years. The material used for construction of biogas reactors such as sand, gravel, bricks, cement and iron are usually available locally. On the other hand, the technical components, such as stoves, water drain, the main gas valves, gas pipes, hoses and others are largely ordered from outside the region. The only component that can be created by small industries in the vicinity of the location is the mixer. Materials and components used in the construction of BIRU digesters must meet the criteria / standards set both by Hivos and SNV. The benefits of the proposed design are among others: 1. It can achieve the economic life of 20-25 years, 2. It is made from local materials, 3. The dome-shaped construction is capable of withstanding the load both in and above ground, 4. There is construction below the ground surface so that the temperature stability of the material inside the digester can be guaranteed, 5. Savings of land use, 6. The operational tool is simple, 7. Relatively easy and inexpensive maintenance. 3.4. The cost of a biogas installation and financing option Installation costs depend on the size of the digester. Table 3.1 presents an overview of the main specifications and costs for the different digester sizes. Table 3.1.

Many people feel that a biogas installation is not cheap. Therefore, to reduce the financial burden, in some areas the BIRU program has established cooperation with financial institutions like banks with available access to soft loan facilities. This program also provides support in the form of a direct subsidy to prospective users. Another thing that can be done to reduce the cost for the user, is for the household to provide some of the required material as a contribution in kind. Biogas users get protection against the errors of development, with a warranty for 3 years for the reactor and other components 1 year warranty. Additionally, the BIRU program also integrates the role of rural development NGOs with government, private-run agricultural sector, and live cattle business. 3.5. Maintenance requirements Routine quality control ensures that construction partner organizations are repeatedly reminded of their responsibilities with regard to the quality of the biogas plants and the guarantee of sustained use of biogas plants. The BIRU approach is to reach 100% quality control towards biogas plants which are made by new construction partners. Also, new partners are supported by experienced masons or supervisors from other construction partners, when the need is identified. Partners where shortcomings are identified in relation to the quality of the construction are offered additional or refreshment training. So far all plants constructed till date are functioning very well. Usually, if maintenance is required, it is performed on the leakage of the reactor that is guaranteed for 3 years, or on the supporting components (stove, pipe, main valve, hose, etc.) that are guaranteed for 1 year. 3.6. Construction process The construction process begins with designing the construction area, then dig the ground according to the size of the reactor to be built. Next are the hardening of the foundation and basic reactor dome, the building inlet, entering the soil to form a dome construction, put the dome in accordance with the standards and mixed in the ratio 1 : 2 : 3 (cement : sand : fine rock), build outlets, and install other components such as pipelines, where bio-slurry can flow out. After the dome is finished, it is casted and dried. The construction sequence of a biogas digester can be seen in the following pictures:

The BIRU program will have broad effects on health conditions and job creation as well as the local economy, including: Strengthen the integration of agriculture and cattle breeding for the improvement of agricultural resources. Creating jobs in the biogas construction sector. Strengthen food security by improving agricultural output through the use of biogas slurry. Empowering women by providing opportunities in the national domestic biogas program as an operator of biogas engines, lights, and refrigerator. In Indonesia, women also can take the role as campaigners for biogas, biogas users coaches, and entrepreneurs of small and medium-scale slurry.

Renewable Energy Project Development Biogas Construction Plan - Segoroyoso Village CASINDO-Yogyakarta Region The project management team for the Biogas Project at the Segoroyoso village consists of: The Coordinator of Casindo Project Yogyakarta Region as a vice of Task Force Segoroyoso Biogas Development Project (Surya Budi Lesmana PUSPER UMY) Mrs Mada Riani from HIVOS and Mr Pamungkas Jutta Prahara from PUSPER as a Team Socialization Mrs Tri from PALUMA as HIVOS partner for construction and socialization Mr Miyadiyana (chief of Segoroyoso village) and Mr Alhadi (cow breeder) as a team member from Segoroyoso community
5.2. Monitoring after construction The authorities in charge of monitoring the biogas reactor after construction is completed are CPO / LPO and quality auditor from Hivos. Each reactor is the responsibility of a certified supervisor (in possession of an ID card) or in some cases also of a certified builder (ID card). Quality monitoring is done on a regular basis every 6 months until the guarantee is completed (3 years). Monitoring is conducted to see if the biogas reactors function properly, resulting in gas with 80 cm of water pressure (as read on the household manometer), no leakage of the reactor, no hose and faucet leaks, the stove burning with blue flame, forming slurry, and so forth.

6.2 . Output The output of the biodigestion process is a composite gas known as biogas. The composition of the gasses contained in biogas can be seen in the table below. Tabel 6.2. The composition of gases in biogas Gases Volume (%)
Methane (CH4 ) 40 70 Carbon dioxide 30 60 (CO 2 ) Hydrogen (H2 ) 0-1 Hydrogen Sulphate 03 (H2 S) Source: (http://www.energi.lipi.go.id) Biogas can produce on average 80 cm water pressure and a minimum of 55 cm water pressure. To cook the same volume of water, a biogas stoves needs a longer time compared to LPG gas stoves, of approximately 10-15 minutes.
6.1
Renewable Energy Project Development Biogas Construction Plan - Segoroyoso Village CASINDO-Yogyakarta Region 6.3. Availability of input requirements in the selected location Cow dung mixed with water is very important input in biogas production. Water availability in Segoroyoso is very good. Communities use wells as a source of clean water daily. Water sources are never dry throughout the season, so water is always there. As mentioned before, in the Segoroyoso village there are approximately 573 cow breedersand 1505 cows. Approximately 100 households have cows between 2-3 cows each home, so the availability of cow dung is guaranteed. There is much space available for biogas construction.

As mentioned, the number of biogas digesters to be installed in Segoroyoso village is 60 units, with a yearly targeted installation rate as shown in table 7.1 below: Table 7.1. Estimated number of digesters to be installed each year
Number of digester (unit) Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Total 10 20 15 15 60
The target in year 2 is the highest, because of the expectation that by then people become familiar with the biogas and begin to change the pattern of thought to use energy sources other than fossil energy to meet their energy needs. In addition, the BIRU programme will end in 2012, so the opportunity for co-financing part of the cost of the digester with the subsidy offered by the BIRU programme should be exploited by the local community by then. Operating cost consist of general and administrative costs, labor costs and material costs. Operating cost for each year are shown in table 7.2 (for the targeted number of installations in that year). General and administrative costs mentioned here consist of the maintenance and construction fee. Table 7.2. Operating cost for target biogas development in Segoroyoso Village

7.2. Cost Grants and subsidies The BIRU program gives a subsidy of 2 million IDR to a household that wants to install a biogas digester. The subsidy is provided after the biogas digester is completed and not in the form of cash but by buying support equipment like stove, waterdrain, etc. In addition, the CASINDO program provided subsidies for a demonstration unit and biogas socialization events.

After 2012 (year 3), there will be no more HIVOS subsidy, so the household will have to pay full amount of the construction cost of biogas, so revenue per unit will increase.

Revenue The cash flow The discount rate used in the cash flow projection for the implementation of biogas digesters in Segoroyoso village was the bank interest rate set at 12%. The results can be seen in the following table below

The BCR is exactly one, which means the project is not making any profit, but also no loss. This situation will not be interesting for commercial lenders, but needs to be supported by government with policy or by donor organizations.

Renewable Energy Project Development Biogas Construction Plan - Segoroyoso Village CASINDO-Yogyakarta Region 8.3. Supply risk The materials needed to build a biogas digester are available in adequate quantity in the chosen location, so there is no risk of supply shortage of construction material or feedstock material for the digester. 8.4. Economic risk There is a real risk that people in the village can not pay for the biogas digester, because their prices start at over 3 million IDR and more (after the subsidy). Average income per month of the villagers in Segoroyoso is rather low, so many households cannot afford the upfront investment. The BIRU program also has a subsidy scheme for financing the construction of household biogas digesters. However, this subsidy is not always sufficient to motivate households to build a biogas digester. Economic risk would be smaller if there would be support from the government, cooperatives, banks, other financial institutions to build a biogas digester through soft loans or by providing households with a credit. In addition, there are also traditional community methods to attract people and alleviate the burden of financing the biogas installation. One example of this is a scheme called Arisan, which is effectively a form of collective crediting, whereby a group of people together collects money for the installation, and then each member of the group can install one unit when sufficient funds are collected. After a while, the next person in the group gets the installation and so on, until every member of the group has it. Where loan facilities are not available, this is an effective way to allow villagers to pay for their installation in installments. Also, the total cost of the installation for a household can be reduced, if the household makes a contribution in kind in the form of construction material. 8.5. Financial risk Occurs either when variable interest rates are used, refinancing of the project is assumed sometime during its life or additional financing is required in the future. Changes in interest rates would cause financial risk to occur. Historical growth shows that interest rates in Indonesia are relatively stable (constant) so that the financial risk is very small. 8.6. Political risk Both the national and regional government is very supportive of the biogas development program. This can be seen from the list of biogas development program in Yogyakarta. So there is no perceived political risk that would arise.
8.2
Renewable Energy Project Development Biogas Construction Plan - Segoroyoso Village CASINDO-Yogyakarta Region 8.7. Environmental risk Biogas digesters have no negative environmental impact on the community or a user, but several positive impacts, as mentioned in section 3.6.3 8.8. Social risk Implementation of biogas can be burdened by possible misconceptions by some people: There are people who are sceptical of biogas, necessitating more frequent socialization and demonstration of examples of real biogas units working successfully. The need for a good organization in its early stages and construction so that people can receive the installation by the agreed schedule. 8.9. Force majeure risk The most important force majeure risk that may occur in the construction of biogas digesters in the Segoroyoso village is the occurrence of earthquakes. However, earthquakes are so unpredictable, it is impossible to make an estimate on their frequency and intensity.
