Indonesia selects 43 bidders for power plants

JAKARTA, Mon Sep 11, 2006 (Reuters) - Indonesia's PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) has selected 43 local and overseas bidders as potential candidates to build coal-fired power plants, an official from the state-owned power monopoly said on Monday.

The planned plants are part of a 45 trillion rupiah ($4.93 billion) investment planned by Indonesia in its ageing power generators and its distribution system.

Bidders include companies from China, Japan and South Korean.

"There were more than 200 companies that applied to build the power plants, but only 43 qualified for further evaluation before we announce the winner soon," PLN spokesman Mulyo Aji told reporters.

Chinese bidders selected included Harbin Power (1133.HK: Quote, Profile, Research), Shanghai Electric (2727.HK: Quote, Profile, Research) and Dongfang Electric (1072.HK: Quote, Profile, Research).

Japanese firms chosen as bidders included Marubeni Corp (8002.T: Quote, NEWS, Research) and Mitsubishi Corp (8058.T: Quote, NEWS, Research), while South Korea's Hyundai Engineering and Construction Co. Ltd. (000720.KS: Quote, Profile, Research) was also part of a consortium named.

The power monopoly has the capacity to produce 21,700 megawatts (MW) of electricity, but ageing plants mean actual generation is lower.

About 30 percent of the plants run on oil products, such as diesel and fuel oil, while coal and natural gas account for the rest.

PLN's immediate plans include building 6,900-MW of coal-fired generating capacity to meet growing domestic demand.

In July, it invited investors to build three 600-700 MW coal-fired plants; in Banten, West Java; Paiton, East Java and in Tanjung Jati, Central Java.

The firm has also opened a tender to build several power plants outside Java island, each with a capacity of 300-400 MW.

PLN has said it will cut its power plants' dependency on oil products by around 18 percent this year as it looks to counter soaring crude costs.
