Volcanic Hazard Analysis for Proposed Nuclear Power Plant Siting in Central Java, Indonesia
In the next 20 years Java Island would experience shortage of electricity if the Indonesian government does not prepare to build a nuclear power plant. Although, there are other sources of electric energy for power utility which uses fuels, coal, hydro or geothermal sources, nuclear power plant (NPP) should be prepared due to the advantage of its higher electricity capability of production with smaller size site.The nuclear power plant site has been proposed in Ujung Lemah Abang (ULA) area, in the northern part of Muria Peninsula, within the Muria volcanic complex. Since Java Island is highly populated, a geohazard mitigation fen-Nuclear Power Plant at Ujung Lemah Abang (NPP ULA) site is compulsory and needs to be conducted in detail.A geohazard study in the area of Mt. Muria has been conducted on volcanic and seismic aspects. However, more geo-datasets has been acquired since then, which enable further analysis of the hazard potential of this area. This paper will discuss a volcanic hazard potential of Mt. Muria based on review of previous works, with the goal of calculating the hazard associated with volcanic disruption to the NPP ULA.The volcanic hazard analysis suggests that the Muria Volcano can safely be considered as a non-capable volcano for magmatic eruption in the near future.
