TEMPO.CO, Jakarta – State power company PT PLN is building a Hydro Power Plant in Jatigede in early 2015. The plant will have a 2x55-MW capacity, generated by water force taken from the Jatigede reservoir built by the Public Works and Public Housing Ministry.
"The plant is scheduled to operate in 2018," PLN spokesman Agus Trimukti said yesterday.
The Jatigede reservoir is a construction project worth Rp1.15 trillion. At the moment, 99 percent of the building process is completed.
