Indian firm Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) announced on Monday that it had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Indonesian firm PT Star Vyobros to set up a 200 MW coal fired power plant in Sulawesi

The MoU was signed in Jakarta by P. K. Uppal, Executive Director for International Operations of BHEL and Edi Yosfi, President Director of Star Vyobros in the presence of Ambassador of India to Indonesia, ASEAN and Timor Leste Gurjit Singh.

The firm did not provide more details about the location of the project nor the signing date.

The firm said it had earlier signed an MoU with Indonesian firm PT APAC INTI to set up a 25?30 MW solar photovoltaic based power plant in Java. The firm is also executing a coal-fired power plant for PT CKP and has commissioned two coal-fired power plants in recent years.

?The signing of these MoUs reinforces BHEL?s commitment to provide reliable EPC solutions to the power requirements of South East Asian countries,? the firm said, adding more than $3 billion worth of export projects in 20 countries are presently being executed by BHEL and about 10,000 MW of power generation capacity has been set up by the company in different parts of the world.
