Aboitiz Power Corp. (AboitizPower) is beefing up its portfolio by exploring opportunities to expand its power business abroad, particularly in Indonesia.

In a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) on Monday, AboitizPower said it will participate in the exploration and development of a potential 100-megawatt (MW) greenfield geothermal plant in East Java Province, Indonesia.

The venture will be undertaken through AboitizPower International Pte. Ltd., a wholly owned Singapore-based subsidiary of AboitizPower, which entered into an agreement with PT Medco Power Indonesia.
