Background
The Jakarta Post reported in February 2012 that the Muara Enim (SS-6) power station was awarded to a joint venture by Korea-based Posco and DH Energy. The companies had signed letters of intent so contractors could directly seek financing for the projects before beginning construction. Commercial operations were projected for 2015. The project is a "mine mouth" plant; coal will be provided by the South Sumatra 6 mining area.
