Description
Summary:Indonesia is one of the countries that has a large geothermal potential. According to the International Geothermal Association, Indonesia ranks third of the five countries that generate the most electricity using geothermal energy by generating energy of 1.197 MWe. This amount of energy can still be improved considering Indonesia has volcanic routes starting from the western part of Sumatra, continuing to Java Island, Bali, Nusa Tenggara and then veering north through Maluku and Sulawesi. Magnetic method is one of the geophysical method that are often used to estimate the subsurface structure of the earth. This method is the first step in the research of geothermal exploration. Use of this magnetic method has a relatively high degree of accuracy, also calculated quickly and easily in operation in the field. <br />
