AFAICS the evaluation of (require 'org-tempo) makes the structure
templates working in the sense you expect.

If you want this permanently you could add the line (require 'org-tempo)
to your Emacs init file.

Alternatively you could customize variable org-modules { M-x
customize-variable RET org-modules RET } and choose org-modules, I
think.
