Project Developer: PT PLN Indonesia Power
Energy Type: Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) Power Plant. The plant uses natural gas as its primary fuel.
Capacity: 1,600 MW
Estimated GHG Emission Reduction: The Muara Karang CCGT is considered a cleaner and more efficient alternative to conventional thermal power plants. Its combined cycle technology allows it to generate more power from the same amount of fuel, thus lowering the carbon intensity (tCO₂e per MWh) of electricity generation.
- Verified Emission Reductions: 552,298 tCO₂e (This figure is for the Muara Karang Peaker Block and is an example of the kind of reductions verified through carbon trading.)
Clean Energy Production: While not a renewable energy source, the plant’s high efficiency and operational flexibility make it a crucial part of the grid. It plays a key role in stabilizing the electricity supply and reducing the overall emissions of the Java-Bali grid system.
Grid Connection: Connected to the Java-Madura-Bali (JAMALI) grid. As a major power plant located in the Jakarta metropolitan area, it is vital for meeting the high electricity demand in the nation’s capital and surrounding regions.
Price: Start from $6/tCO2e
