Background on Plant

The Teluk Sirih power station is a two-unit, 224-MW, coal-fired power station that became operational in 2013. The plant is owned by PLN. In January 2022 there was a report of a fire at the station that burned for four hours.

Environmental impact

Sea turtles have become trapped in the plant's water intake valves due to the plant's failure to install a buffer zone between the valve and the ocean.
