Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Uap Perak

Gas

The Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Uap Perak is a key infrastructure asset in Indonesia's power generation grid, located on the continent of Asia. Designated as a fossil fuel electricity generation station, the facility features an installed capacity of 0 MW. Its primary operation relies on harnessing gas energy resources to generate bulk electricity. Operational management and ownership of the facility are handled by the PLN (Perusahaan Listrik Negara), which oversees daily maintenance and grid dispatch integration. An exact commissioning date for the installation is not registered in official historical logs. In terms of domestic production capacity within Indonesia, Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Uap Perak occupies the #70 position among all operational gas power plants. Its 0 MW capacity represents a 0.00% share of Indonesia's total installed gas generating capacity, which currently stands at 48,764 MW. The largest operational gas installation in Indonesia is the Paiton Power Station with an output of 4,608 MW, making the Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Uap Perak approximately 1.0 times smaller by comparison. Across all fuel types and electricity generation technologies country-wide, this facility accounts for 0.0000% of Indonesia's aggregate generation capacity of 108,203 MW. Based on historical capacity factors characteristic of gas power plants (modeled at 40% for analysis), the facility's expected annual electricity generation is calculated at approximately 0 MWh. Applying domestic consumption statistics where an average household in Indonesia consumes 3 MWh of electricity annually, this level of production is sufficient to meet the energy demands of roughly 0 homes. By utilizing traditional thermal power processes, the station delivers reliable dispatchable energy to the grid, supporting grid resilience during periods of low renewable resource availability and satisfying industrial base-load demands. The physical site of the station is located at geographic coordinates -7.2081° latitude and 112.7229° longitude. Analysis of local grid infrastructure shows a density of other assets within a 50-kilometer radius. These nearby facilities include Gresik Power Plant (gas, 2,219 MW), PLTGU Gresik (gas, 1,579 MW), PLTGU Grati (gas, 1,424.7 MW), representing a cluster of localized power assets. This geographic placement is vital for reinforcing regional distribution infrastructure and minimizing transmission line losses across this sector of Indonesia.
