Background
Banten Labuan power station is a 600 MW coal-fired power station.[2][3]
Development of the Banten Labuan power station began in 2007 with an initial investment of $492,940,279.[4] The station consists of two 300 MW units: Unit 1, which became operational in July 2009; and Unit 2, which became operational in March 2010. Each unit consumes approximately 1.3 million tons of coal per year. Coal is supplied by the following entities: PT Titan Mining Energy (285,000 tons / year); Consortium of PT Arutmin Indonesia and PT Darma Henwa (95,000 tons / year); Consortium of PT Kasih Industri Indonesia and PT Senamas Energindo Mulia (950,000 tons / year); PT Bara Mutiara Prima (570,000 tons / year).[5]
Environmental Justice Atlas' profile on the power station highlighted environmental and community resistance efforts at the site from 2017 to 2022.[6]
In January 2023, it was stated that Banten Labuan power station did not report any work related incidents from 2022, despite evidence that at least one incident did occur. The Pandeglang Regency area had regulations requiring all such events to be reported.[7]
In February 2023, PT Indonesia Power stated that they would trial co-firing garbage at the power station.[8] Banten Labuan was included on a list of coal-fired power stations in Indonesia that began co-firing with biomass in 2023.[9]
As of March 2024, Banten Labuan power station had reportedly burned 65,348 tons of sawdust.[10]
Opposition and impact
In October 2023, community members held a protest at the front gate of the power station, unhappy with pollution that was reportedly associated with Banten Labuan.[11]
