Illuminating Sumatra: The North Sumatra Pangkalan Susu Project Powers Indonesia’s Energy Rise

In the wave of Indonesia’s booming economic development, electricity—as a core energy driver—has seen soaring demand. Particularly in Sumatra, the existing power infrastructure struggled to meet rising consumption needs. To address this gap and ensure sustainable regional growth, the Indonesian government launched the North Sumatra Pangkalan Susu Project, a strategic initiative aimed at meeting power demand and boosting economic prosperity.


Located in Pangkalan Susu Village, North Sumatra Province, near Sibolga Bay, the power plant enjoys unique geographic advantages. It consists of two 115 MW coal-fired units, totaling 230 MW of installed capacity, primarily fueled by lignite. Since commencing commercial operations in 2008, the plant has been delivering steady electricity to the Sumatra region under the professional management of Indonesia’s national utility, PT PLN (Persero).


While ensuring a reliable power supply, environmental protection remains a top priority. The project is equipped with an advanced electrostatic precipitation (ESP) system—acting as the plant’s “environmental guardian.” The system efficiently captures dust particles generated during coal combustion, significantly reducing emissions. The ESP project meets stringent environmental regulations and provides a strong safeguard for surrounding ecosystems, enhancing the plant’s public image and exemplifying its commitment to sustainability.



The commissioning of this project injected a powerful “booster” into the regional economy of Sumatra. It alleviated the region’s power shortage, ensured stable electricity for industrial and residential use, and attracted new investments. It also created employment opportunities, accelerating regional economic growth. Additionally, the environmental benefits of the ESP project have laid a solid foundation for sustainable development.



Amid the global shift toward green energy, the Pangkalan Susu Project continues to explore sustainable paths by improving energy efficiency and reducing pollution. While securing power supply, it actively fulfills its social responsibility and contributes to Indonesia’s green development goals.


As a landmark project in Indonesia’s power development journey, the Pangkalan Susu Project embodies the hopes and dedication of many. We look forward to its continued success and contribution to Indonesia’s prosperity, paving the way for more brilliant chapters in the future.
