Overview
PLTU Listrindo is a 2.5 MW coal power plant in Indonesia, operated by PT. Listrindo (IPP). It is an operational facility contributing to the local power grid.
PLTU Listrindo is a coal-fired power plant located in Indonesia, with coordinates approximately 2.52°S, 121.36°E. The facility has a generating capacity of 2.5 MW and is owned and operated by PT. Listrindo (IPP) as an independent power producer. It is currently in operational status, serving the local energy needs. As a small-scale coal power plant, PLTU Listrindo operates under Indonesia's national energy regulations, which include emission standards for coal-fired plants. The plant's technology is typical for small coal units, often using subcritical boilers. Indonesia's power generation sector is diverse, with coal playing a significant role in the energy mix, and small plants like this one support regional electrification. The environmental context of this facility involves its fuel type and capacity. Coal combustion produces CO2, SOx, and NOx emissions, and the plant's proximity to populated areas and natural ecosystems is a consideration. The 2.5 MW capacity places it in the small-scale category, and its operational significance lies in providing power to the local grid, contributing to energy access in the region.
Environmental context
The PLTU Listrindo coal plant, with a capacity of 2.5 MW, contributes to local power generation but also emits CO2, SOx, and NOx typical of coal combustion. Its location in Indonesia, a country with significant coal use, means it operates under national emission standards. The plant's small scale may limit its overall environmental footprint, but proximity to communities and ecosystems requires careful management of emissions and waste.
Frequently asked questions
PLTU Listrindo is located in Indonesia, with approximate coordinates 2.52°S, 121.36°E.
PLTU Listrindo has a generating capacity of 2.5 megawatts (MW), making it a small-scale coal power plant.
PLTU Listrindo is owned and operated by PT. Listrindo (IPP), an independent power producer in Indonesia.
Coal power plants in Indonesia must comply with national emission standards set by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry, including limits on SOx, NOx, and particulate matter.
Small coal plants emit CO2, SOx, and NOx, contributing to air pollution and climate change. However, their smaller capacity means lower total emissions compared to larger plants, though local impacts can still be significant.
