Kalimantan 1 power station is a 150 MW gas power station in Kalimantan, Indonesia. It is operated by PT PLN (Persero). Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 169k homes (estimated). It ranks #211 of 401 Indonesia power plants by installed capacity. In context, gas supplies about 18.5% of Indonesia's electricity; the national grid averages 680 gCO₂/kWh (18.1% low-carbon) (2024).

At 150 MW, Kalimantan 1 power station is around the median gas plant in Indonesia (150 MW). Technically it is described as CCGT; combined-cycle with a heat-recovery steam generator (HRSG). Its current lifecycle status is “Announced” — so it is not yet, or no longer, generating at full output. Gas plants burn natural gas either in open-cycle turbines for fast peaking, or in combined-cycle units that recover exhaust heat in an HRSG to reach roughly 55–62% efficiency — the cleanest-burning fossil option.

This gas plant burns natural gas in a turbine — often in a combined-cycle setup — to generate electricity. It sits in a tropical rainforest climate (Köppen Af) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 0.5°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.
