Toshiba Energy Systems & Solutions Corporation (Toshiba ESS) has secured an order to provide a steam turbine and generator for the Patuha 2 Geothermal Power Plant in West Java, Indonesia. The equipment will be supplied to PT Inti Karya Persada Tehnik (IKPT), the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor for the project, which is owned by state-run PT Geo Dipa Energi (Geo Dipa).
The order comes shortly after a consortium of IKPT and PT Wasa Mitra Engineering (WME) was awarded the EPC contract for the Patuha 2 project. The plant, set to be operational by 2027, will have a maximum generating capacity of 60.3 MW.
Takehiko Matsushita, Vice President of Toshiba ESS’s Power Systems Division, expressed confidence in the company’s role. “We are honored to be selected for this important project. Our steam turbine and generator will demonstrate Toshiba’s reliability and expertise in geothermal energy, reinforcing our position as a trusted partner in the industry,” he said.
Matsushita also highlighted Toshiba’s extensive experience in geothermal projects, with a product range spanning 1 MW to 200 MW. “We have successfully delivered numerous projects in Japan and abroad, helping customers harness clean, sustainable energy. We remain committed to advancing geothermal solutions for a greener future,” he added.
Toshiba has a strong foothold in Indonesia’s geothermal sector, having installed six steam turbines with a combined capacity of 311 MW. These include equipment for the Sarulla Geothermal Power Plant, one of Indonesia’s largest geothermal facilities, as well as Patuha Unit 1 and Lumut Balai Unit 1.
Notably, Patuha Unit 1 utilizes Toshiba’s EtaPRO™, an advanced IoT-based system for monitoring equipment performance, diagnosing issues, and predicting potential problems. This technology enhances plant efficiency and ensures a stable power supply.
The Patuha 2 project marks another step in Toshiba’s efforts to support Indonesia’s transition to renewable energy and strengthen its presence in the global geothermal market.
