Toshiba Wins Contract To Supply 'Geoportable™' For Dieng Small Scale Geothermal Power Plant In Indonesia (News Release)

Toshiba Energy Systems & Solutions Corporation (Toshiba ESS) today announced that the company has won a contract with PT Inti Karya Persada Tehnik (IKPT), a leading Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) company in Indonesia, to supply a set of steam turbine and generator for Dieng Small Scale Geothermal Power Plant located in Central Java, Indonesia. 

The power plant is developed by PT Geo Dipa Energi (Persero), Indonesia's state-owned geothermal energy company. Toshiba ESS commenced the design and engineering work for the scope of supply. The power plant is scheduled to start commercial operation in March 2021.

This 10 MW-class small scale geothermal power plant will be constructed in the Dieng plateau and located near the existing Dieng Geothermal Power Plant Unit 1, which has been operating since 2002. For this new power plant, Toshiba ESS will supply 'Geoportable™'.

'Geoportable™' is a compact power generation system developed by Toshiba ESS for small scale geothermal power plants with outputs ranging from 1 MW to 20 MW. This system employs advanced technologies, for instance, leading-edge corrosive gas resistance materials, which are crucial for geothermal steam turbines, and a unique design for the steam path, which leads to high performance and reliability.
