Background

In March 2023, Zhongwei New Materials and Delong Nickel Industry jointly established PT Nadesico Nickel Industry (PT NNI). PT NNI was planned to build a Delong Nickel Phase IV project in Indonesia, with a designed annual production capacity of 80,000 tons. The project would include the construction of a 2 x 330 MW captive coal-fired power station.[4] The power station's two units appeared to be referred to as Unit 2 and Unit 3.

In late March 2023, an on-site kickoff meeting was held.[5]

In March 2024, the power station was under construction.[6]

In June 2024, Unit 3 was successfully connected to the grid.[7]

In September 2024, Unit 3 passed its trial operation period.[8]

In October 2024, construction of Unit 2 was ongoing.[9]

In January 2025, the Unit 2 turbine was installed.[10]

In September 2025, PT NNI was ordered to temporarily shut down the power station because of several reported environmental violations.[11]

In December 2025, the Poso District Court in Central Sulawesi ruled that Nadesico Nickel Industry was guilty of environmental pollution and destruction.[12]
