Indonesia: Indonesia's second largest cement producer PT Indocement has announced plans to build a 2 x 30MW power plant in Pati, Central Java. The plant, which will cost around US$200m, will guarantee a power supply to Indocement's new cement factory, which is to be built in Pati later in 2012.
The new cement factory will cost around US$300m, according to Indocement's corporate secretary Sahat Panggabean. It will have a capacity of 2.5Mt/yr and will be operational by mid-2015. This will take Indocement's domestic cement capacity from 18.5Mt/yr up to 21Mt/yr.
