Star Energy Geothermal has announced plans to expand its installed geothermal power generation capacity in Indonesia by 102.6 MWe through retrofitting existing assets and enhancing capacity in its operating fields. The total investment for this expansion is projected to be USD346 million.
The expansion plan includes several key projects including a 40MW increase at Salak Unit 7, leveraging the Salak Injection Realignment Program; a 30 MW boost at Wayang Windu Unit 3 through the optimisation of existing facilities; an 18.4 MW enhancement for Wayang Windu Units 1 and 2 via engineering retrofits; a 7.2 MW increase across Salak Units 4, 5, and 6 by replacing turbine components; and a 7 MW upgrade for Darajat Unit 3 through technological improvements.
These projects will be carried out in partnership with Fuji Electric Company, PT Wasa Mitra, and PT Mitsubishi Power Indonesia. Additionally, Star Energy has formed a partnership with PT Pertamina Geothermal Energy to enhance laboratory services and geochemical fluid analysis, further improving operational efficiency.
