Background on Plant

The 120 MW Pulang Pisau power station in Central Kalimantan Province is operated by PLN. The construction contract was awarded back in January 2008, to a consortium consisting of China National Heavy Machinery Corporation, Shandong Electric Power Group (a subsidiary of Shandong Energy), and Mega Power Mandiri.

As of October 2014, construction was 83% complete. The plant was scheduled to be completed in May 2015.

Although the plant is almost complete, land claims for the site were apparently still in dispute.

In June 2015, workers from the plant were in training for plant operations, and startup appeared to be imminent.

Unit 1 began commercial operations in August 2016. Unit 2 began operating sometime later, most likely in early 2017, although there were no announcements when the unit came online. Both units were operating in October 2018, when they were forced offline by a lightning strike on electrical transmission lines.
