and works required to ensure safe, reliable, and economic operation of the Plant such as coal
handling systems, water treatment and storage facilities, and all the other necessary auxiliary and
ancillary equipment required for the safe, reliable and efficient operation of the Plant. The Plant
shall be constructed of new equipment and materials only.
These responsibilities will be contractually embodied principally in the PPA between the
SELLER and PLN as the power purchaser and will include not only the requirements regarding
the Plant’s Net Dependable Capacity and availability, but also stipulations of how the Plant will
interface with PLN’s Grid System in terms of start up times, performance ramp rates, ability to
generate with falling system frequency, etc. in accordance with the PPA where applicable.

3. DESIGN PRINCIPLES
3.1 DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
The Plant shall be of proven design, built to appropriate internationally recognized standards,
and complying with all the applicable statutory codes and regulations. Equipment suppliers for
the Plant can meet the proven design and technology requirements of Section 2.1.1 based on
another supplier(s)’s technology or design if they have a valid license or agreement for such
technology/design, including allowance under the license to export the technology.
Annex C – page 11
Plant reliability, availability, and maintainability consistent with high efficiency, are of
paramount importance.
The Plant shall be designed and equipment should be sized to permit reliable base load operation
over the complete range of anticipated ambient conditions without limiting the plant output.
The Site is in an area impacted by factors that may affect construction of the Plant. Thus these
agents must be taken account in design. The factors include:
Erosion agent from salt air of coastal region for the outdoor construction;
Erosion agent from sea water for reinforced concrete construction and structural
steel that contact directly to the sea water;
There is no requirement for the Plant to operate continuously above the manufacturer’s declared
base load maximum continuous rating (“MCR”) at given ambient conditions and the physical
condition of the Plant. However, during emergency conditions (as determined by the Java-Bali
grid control), the plant output shall be increased to VWO conditions for a limited period.
The Plant should be capable of automatic operation and control at loads between 100% and 40%
of Net Dependable Capacity without supplemental firing. When only one unit is in operation, the
operating range of such unit shall be from 20% to 50% of the Plant Net Dependable Capacity,
without supplemental firing.

shall be made to allow the Plant output to be controlled remotely by PLN through the AGC
program installed at PLN’s Java Control Center. The Plant shall be designed to ensure that
automatic hot, warm and cold starts, as well as shut downs, are achieved on a reliable basis
throughout its design life. The Plant shall also meet the following steady state and transient
operating conditions:
a. Operate under automatic control for sustained periods at all loads above
minimum controllable, for the given ambient temperature range.
b. Provide the necessary equipment to ensure safe shut down of the Plant
under all foreseeable circumstances.

6. SITE DESCRIPTION
6.1 SITE LOCATION AND REQUIREMENTS
Characteristics of fifteen potential sites that have been identified and evaluated by PLN are
presented in the Site Reconnaissance Study (available in the Data Room). However, the
SELLER may select a different site, if it so chooses, which meets site suitability requirements for
this Project.
The selected site is to be within 15 km of the PLN 500kV Grid. The Site is to be located on the
north coast of Pemalang area, Central Java Province, between Tegal (to the west) and Kendal (to
the east) and new 500 kV transmission lines from the Plant (part of the Special Facilities) which
will interconnect with the existing PLN 500kV grid via a new substation (included by SELLER
with the Special Facilities) as shown in Figure 6-1. Site area requirement for the Project is
expected to be about 250 hectares. The selected site shall be sufficiently large to accommodate
the expansion of the Plant to include a third generating unit.
Within the Site area, the SELLER must develop the proposed Plant layout taking into
consideration the area (m2) allotted for the Plant including, water storage facilities, coal, ash and
limestone handling and storage, and the general layout of buildings, mosque, facilities and
equipment. The Electrical Interconnection Facilities will be contiguous with the Site. The final
Plant arrangement will be coordinated with PLN and subject to PLN approval. The layout and
orientation of the Electrical Interconnection Facilities shall be able to accommodate expansion of
the electrical bays to include a third generating unit and associated outgoing 500 kV transmission
line.
The Special Facilities Site shall be determined by the SELLER and shall comply with PLN
design, construction and electrical safety requirements. Interconnection points between the
Electrical Interconnection Facilities and the Special Facilities and also between the Special
Facilities and the existing 500 kV transmission system shall be clearly noted on drawings
prepared by the SELLER and shall be subject to PLN approval. Schedule for testing and
commissioning of the Special Facilities shall be approved by PLN prior to the start of
Annex C – page 29
construction of the Plant.
7. PROJECT ADMINISTRATION
7.1 GENERAL
Project administration procedures shall be implemented to properly monitor, manage and control
all aspects of the Project during design, procurement, construction, inspection, erection, testing

The implementation of the Project requires the Project Company to prepare and execute the
AMDAL as governed by the environmental law and regulations in Indonesia. The legal bases for
the preparation and execution of the Project’s AMDAL include, but are not limited to:
1. Law No. 23 of 1997 regarding the Environmental Management (“Law 23/1997”);
2. Government Regulation No. 27 of 1999 regarding AMDAL (“GR 27/1999”);
3. Decree of the State Minister for the Environmental Affairs No. 8 of 2006 regarding

4. Decree of the State Minister for the Environmental Affairs No. 11 of 2006 regarding
Types of Business and/or Activity Plan which are Obligated to be Completed with an
Analysis on Environmental Impacts (“Decree 11/2006”);
Under Law 23/1997, any project having a significant impact to the environment is obligated to
prepare and execute an AMDAL, before a permit for the operation of the business is granted.
Decree 11/2006 stipulates that construction and operation of a coal-fired power plant with a
capacity of more than 100 MW requires an AMDAL, so as the construction and operation of the
corresponding transmission lines with operating voltage of more than 150 kV. The AMDAL of a
project consists of:
1. The scoping study (Kerangka Acuan Analisis Dampak Lingkungan or “KA-
ANDAL”);
2. Environmental Impact Assessment (Analisis Dampak Lingkungan or “ANDAL”);
3. Environmental Management Plan (Rencana Pengelolaan Lingkungan Hidup or
