Background

Units 1-3 (Sulawesi Mining power station, Phase 5)

Units 1-3 of the Sulawesi Labota power station (青山工业园拉波塔电厂1-3号机组) also appear to be referred to as Phase 5 of the Sulawesi Mining power station (青山工业园自备电厂五期). Construction reportedly began in March 2020, comprising 2 x 350 MW units and one 380 MW unit.[12]

In October 2021, Unit 1 was successfully test fired.[13] There was no known news confirming that Unit 1 was commissioned after the test firing. The unit was presumed to have begun operating by the end of 2021.

In May 2022, Unit 2 passed its trial period and entered operation.[14]

In January 2023, Unit 3 was connected to the grid and began operating.[15]

Units 4-6

In August 2021, China Energy Construction Group East China Construction Investment Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of China Energy Construction Group Zhejiang Thermal Power Construction Co., Ltd. signed a contract with Qingshan Indonesia Morovali Park Rapo to build the 3 x 380 MW supercritical plant in Qingshan Industrial Park.[16]

In April 2023, Unit 4 began operating. The unit would reportedly help to "effectively alleviate the current shortage of power consumption in the Morawali Industrial Park" (Google translate).[17]

In July 2023, Unit 5 began operating.[18]

In August 2023, Unit 6 began operating.[19]

Units 7-9

In 2021, an additional three units (7#-9#) were also recruiting bids.[20][21] The capacity of these units was unclear.

According to February 2022 reporting, the project construction period was set to start April 2022 and end October 31, 2022, when the first unit would be connected to the grid, followed by the second unit in 2022, and the third unit in January 2023.[22][23]

As of January 2023, Planet imagery suggested that Unit 7 and Unit 8 had entered construction.

In February 2023, reporting indicated that equipment deliveries for the construction of units 7, 8 and 9 were ongoing.[24] Construction work was in progress in October 2023.[25]

In December 2023, Unit 7 began operating.[26]

In May 2024, Unit 8 was in a testing phase.[27] In June 2024, Unit 8 began operating.[28]

In December 2024, Unit 9 completed its trial period and entered operation.[29]

Units 10-12

As of October 2024, two additional 380 MW units were under construction in the industrial area.[30] The project was being constructed by China Chemical Engineering Second Construction Co.[31]

The units were associated with PT Hua Chin Aluminium Indonesia. Operations were reportedly expected to begin in 2025.[32]

A third new 380 MW unit was also planned as of November 2024.[33] However, no physical construction of Unit 12 was visible on Planet imagery as of April 2026, and most sources mention only Units 10 and 11.
