Indonesia Power, a wholly owned subsidiary of PLN, has announced that it has awarded a consortium of GE, Marubeni, and Hutama Karya an EPC contract for the Tambak Lorok Combined Cycle Power Plant Block 3 Project. The power plant, scheduled to start operation in mid-2020, will add 780 MW to the Indonesian grid. Tambrak Lorok will be the largest power project developed in the history of Indonesia Power, and one of the first in the region to use GE’s HA gas turbine technology.

Tambrak Lorok is an important milestone in Indonesia’s 35,000 MW programme to increase electricity supply for the country, according to Sripeni Inten Cahyani, President Director of PT Indonesia Power. He said: “Tambrak Lorok will be the biggest power plant that Indonesia Power is developing, and the first to use the latest HA gas turbine. We are pleased to select GE, Marubeni, and Hutama Karya as the EPC in this project, bringing one of the most efficient gas turbines to Indonesia for reliable and more affordable electricity for the Java grid.”

Tambrak Lorok will be powered by GE’s 9HA.02 gas turbine, D650 steam turbine, HRSG, and balance of plant equipment. The plant will be delivered in a turnkey combined cycle configuration using GE’s extended scope technology.

In addition to the technology contract, Indonesia Power has signed a multi-year service agreement with GE’s Power Services for 15 years. The agreement includes training and maintenance management to enhance operational performance and increase the efficiency and reliability of Tambrak Lorok plant. The training will support skills development and knowledge transfer to improve the capability of Indonesia Power’s operations team.
