Wangan Aji MHP

Wangan Aji MHP

Central Java · 2003–2007 · 140 kW

Wangan Aji MHP constituted PT Entec Indonesia’s first project undertaking in 2004. The plant was planned before PT Entec Indonesia was established — the feasibility study was carried out through the MHPP (Micro/Mini Hydro Power Project), a GIZ initiative supporting micro-hydro plants that supply electricity to PLN under the PSK Tersebar (Scattered Small Scale Power Plants) policy. Entec’s role was supervision and oversight of the construction process and the procurement of electrical and mechanical equipment.

The project was initiated by KOPENINDO (Indonesian Energy Cooperative), supported by the Central Java Provincial Government and the Wonosobo District Government, and funded through a revolving fund from ADB. The plant is managed by the Roudlotuth Tholibin Jawar Islamic Boarding School Cooperative. With a capacity of 140 kW, a flow rate of 1.4 m³/s at a head of 13 m, it was built to interconnect with the national grid — and it marked the first S-tube propeller turbine manufactured by Entec together with turbine manufacturer CV Cihanjuang Inti Teknik.
