ABB in $11 Mln PLN Order

ABB has announced it has won a $11 million order from the Indonesian state-owned utility Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) to extend existing substations across Indonesia.

ABB will design, engineer, supply and install the substation extensions, including switchgear, transformers, state-of-the-art control and protection systems as well as ancillary equipment.

The product scope will include 11 units of 60 megavolt-ampere (MVA) transformers, high-voltage air-insulated switchgear for eight substations, high-voltage gas-insulated switchgear for one substation as well as the replacement works and control systems for uprating the transformers in three other substations.

Financed by the Asian Development Bank, the project is scheduled to be completed in 2017.
