Competitive intelligence application: The case of geothermal power plant development in rural Tompaso, North Sulawesi, Indonesia
Keywords:
Competitive intelligence, environmental issues, geothermal power plant, rural TompasoAbstract
The vision of the community around geothermal power plants and the
development of the power plants should be based on sustainable development principles,
without jeopardizing the quality of life and justice for communities surrounding the power plant.
This research aims to: (i) identify issues that arise as an result of the development of geothermal
power plants in rural Tompaso, and (ii) find solutions to the issues to minimize the conflicts
that arises from further geothermal power plant development in rural Tompaso and its
surroundings. This study is based on the competitive intelligence research method. The results
show that the development of geothermal power plants in Tompaso has a negative impact on
the natural and social environment. The technical solutions offered include: (i) bioremediation
by cultivating plants that absorb arsenic; (ii) biosulfurization and desulfurization for reducing
air pollution, especially sulfur; (iii ) floods and extreme drought managed by improving
infrastructure and reforestation; (iv) social conflicts (land acquisition, working days, labor
recruitment and settlement security) are solved by intensifying program dissemination to the
community and involving local communities in decision making. The recommended policy
provides incentives to the local community through strategic programs for the development of
human and natural resources.
