A Consortium of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd and Toshiba Plant Systems & Service Corp has won a tender to build a US$ 430 million power generating project in Indonesia. The consortium will increase the capacity of the Muara Karang Power Plant in response to concern over power shortage.

The objective of the project is to improve the tight power situation in the Java-Bali power system and contribute to reducing emissions of air pollutants. The project consists of converting a diesel oil-fired power plant in the existing Muara Karang power complex near Jakarta into a gas-fired combined cycle power plant and thereby increasing power capacity from 300 MW to 720 MW.

PT Putera, indonesian partner of Environnement S.A concludes agreement for the supply of 2 CEMs (dilution-based systems for the measurement of SO2, NOx and CO) Muara Karang power plant.
