PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) plan to carry out an ammonia co-firing trial at PLN's coal-power plant (PLTU) and hydrogen co-firing trials at a combine-cycle power plant (PLTGU). Both parties signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on Tuesday.

PLN and MHI will conduct a joint feasibility study on high-ratio biomass co-firing scale-up for Units 1-4 of Suralaya coal-fired power plant, ammonia (NH3) co-firing at PLTU Suralaya Units 5-7, and hydrogen (H2) co-firing at the M701F gas turbines in Tanjung Priok managed by PT PLN Indonesia Power, PLN's subsidiary in the power generation sector.
