Jakarta (ANTARA News) - State owned electricity firm PLN Batam office had forged cooperation with PT Kideco Jaya Agung (Kideco) and PT Solusi Energi Sistem Consult (Sesco) in building a coal-fired power plant (PLTU) in Tanjung Kasam, a press release said.
"The cooperation agreement was signed on Jan 19, 2007," President Director of PLN Batam office Ifyandri said in a press release made available to ANTARA News here.
Under the deal, he said Kideco would supply low calorie coal (4.700-4,800 calories) to the PLTU and Sesco would provide technology angineering services.
President Director of Tanjung Kasam Power, which would be operating PLTU Tanjung Kasam, Binarto Bekti Mahardjana, meanwhile, said Sesco assured the project would be built in accordance with its specifications and schedule.
"The plant is badly needed to meet the power consumption in Batam as an industrial zone," he added.
PT Petra Unggul Sejahtera, a subsidiary of publicly listed PT Intraco Penta Tbk has a 90 pct stake in PT Tanjung Kasam Power and PLN Batam controls the remaining of 10 pct.
Under the 30-year transaction contract, PLN Batam would purchase the electricity from the plant for sale to its subscribers.
