PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (“PLN”) and the PT Medco Ratch Power Riau (“MRPR”); – which is the consortium company of PT Medco Power Indonesia (“MPI”) and the Ratchaburi Electricity Generating Holding Plc (“RATCH”) of Thailand; – announced today the signing of a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for the Independent Power Producer (IPP) of the 275 MW Gas Fired Power Plant in the province of Riau.

As an Indonesian company, we are pleased also to become a strategic partner with the Indonesian government to fulfill the electricity demand, and to acceleration national development. MPI remains committed to provide environment-friendly electricity through the application of advanced technology.”
