PÖYRY PLC Press Release 20 February 2018
Financial close for Cirebon 2 ultra-supercritical coal fired power plant in Indonesia was achieved last November. The 1000 MW plant, located in the West Java Province, expands the initial 660 MW capacity of Cirebon 1 project, increasing the production capacity in this location, scheduled to be commercially operational by February 2022.
Pöyry has acted as the Lender's Technical Advisor (LTA) for the project since December 2015 and is set to continue to act as LTA during the project's construction phase. Once operational, the expanded plant is expected to supply power to Perusahan Listrik Negara (PLN), Indonesia's state-owned electricity company, to meet the country's increasing demand in electricity attributed to its continuous economic growth.
"Pöyry is committed to continue supporting the government of Indonesia in ensuring reliable and stable electricity for its people. We hope that through our technical expertise, we will be able to contribute in projects such as Cirebon 2, and be a pivotal partner in providing the best facilities and utilities that will boost the country's power generation capacity," said Kishore Dass, President Director, PT Pöyry Indonesia.
The Cirebon project is being developed by Cirebon Energi Prasarana, a Marubeni-led consortium which also includes Indika Energy, Samtan, Korea Midland Power, and JERA. Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC), Nippon Export and Investment Insurance (NEXI), and the Export-Import Bank of Korea (K-EXIM), comprise its Lenders group.
