Bagasse-fired boiler project.

Location
Indonesia.

Project Owner/s
An Indonesian client. John Thompson, a division of ACTOM, is building the boiler.

Project Description
The project involves the construction of a 320 t/h bagasse-fired boiler. The plant will operate as a fully self sufficient energy island, generating its own electricity from bagasse – the fibrous by-product of sugar cane.

The new boiler will support Phase 2 of what is set to become the world’s largest greenfield sugar mill development. The mill is designed to process up to 40 000 t/d of sugar cane across two crushing lines.

Excess power will be supplied to nearby communities, displacing diesel generation and supporting Indonesia’s broader sustainability and energy security goals.
