Background

Tanjung Awar-Awar power station is a two-unit, 700-MW coal-fired power plant in East Java Province. China National Electric Engineering Co., Ltd. was awarded the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contract, valued at US$588 million. The plant was completed in 2012-13, and is owned by PLN.[1]

This project is part of Fast Track Program 10,000 MW Phase 1 (FTP-1). Under a presidential decree issued on July 5, 2006 and amended on December 23, 2009, the government of Indonesia directed PT PLN to establish coal-fired steam power plants (PLTU) in 37 different locations throughout Indonesia. The 10 projects identified in FTP-1 included 10 with a total capacity of 7,490 MW in Java-Bali; 12 with total capacity of 1,600 MW in West Indonesia; and 15 with total capacity of 885 MW in East Indonesia.[2][3]

The power station co-fired sawdust.[4] In July 2022, the power station tested co-firing garbage as well.[5]

Financing

Units 1 and 2: On January 30, 2009, a financing agreement for the project was closed. Bank Negara Indonesia and Bank Rakyat Indonesia agreed to provide US$101.92 million each in loans.[6] On December 15, 2009, another financing agreement for the project was closed. The Bank of China agreed to provide a US$371.5 million loan.[7]
