ABB's grid solution connects a new geothermal power plant near Rantau Dedap, located in a volcanic complex in a remote highland part of South Sumatra, far from the island's main transmission system. The plant provides 220 MW of electricity - enough to power almost 500,000 local homes.
Working closely with PT Rekayasa Industri, an Indonesia Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) company and their customer, PT Supreme Energy, ABB engineered, manufactured, supplied, installed and commissioned a prefabricated gas-insulated substation, which was delivered on-site fully assembled and factory-tested.
