Meanwhile, consortium Shanghai Electric power Company-Maxima Infrastructure offered the lowest bidding price for the tendered construction of the 3x300 MW Pelabuhan Ratu coal-fired power plant in Banten.
The lowest bidding prices were contained in the proposed bidding document submitted by the consortiums to the Assessor Team of the tender for the construction of the 300- 400 MW class coal-fired power plants.
However, the proposed bidding prices reflect only the prices needed for the construction of the power plant and exclude the counting of other costs that may be incurred as a result of the possible ineffectiveness of the machines and level of pollution.
In regards to the Pelabuhan Ratu coal-fired power plant, consortium China Machinery and Equipment Import and Export Corporation (CMEC) - PT Mega Power offered the bidding price of US$432.12 million and Rp 3.4 trillion, Guang Xie Electric Power - Adhi Karya US$586 million and Rp 2.42 trillion. Meanwhile Shanghai Electric Power Company - PT Maxima Infrastructure offered US$556.9 million and Rp2.2 trillion.
On the Pacitan coal-fired power plant, Dongfang Electric Corporation - PT Dalle Energy US$416.6 million and Rp1.24 trillion, Shanghai ? Maxima US$393.96 million and Rp 1.53 trillion, Harbin Power - PT Mitra Selaras US$547.68 million and Rp1.24 trillion.
Meanwhile, on the Teluk Naga coal-fired power plant, consortium Dongfang - Dalle offered US$610.9 million and Rp 1.90 trillion, lower than that offered by consortium China International Trust and Investment Company (CITIC) - PT Pembangunan Perumahan - PT Hutama Karya that offers US$680.15 million and Rp 1.68 trillion.
The bidding price document proposed by consortium CMEC - Mega Power that participates in the tender for the construction of Teluk Naga is kept closed because the consortium failed to meet the technical requirements.
PLN?s director for primary energy plant Ali Herman Ibrahim said that following the completion of the evaluation stage that opened the biding price document, the team will look for the lowest bidding price per kilowatt hour (Rp/ kWh) based on the plant capacity, level of machine efficiency, level of coal pollution.
