Adaro has been clearing land in Central Java for a 2,000MW coal plant, after a delay for more than four years due to land acquisition issues.[3] The construction of Indonesia's largest coal plant, into which Adaro invested $4.2 billion, began in June 2016.[4]
Adaro's strategy focuses on power generation as of the company's "three pillars" besides coal exports and logistics.[2]
History
In 1976 the Indonesian Mines Department divided East and South Kalimantan into eight coal blocks and invited tenders for these blocks. Spanish state-owned enterprise Enadimsa (empresa nacional adaro investigaciones mineras s.a.) bid for Block 8 in the Tanjung district of South Kalimantan. Adaro Indonesia’s Coal Cooperation Agreement (CCA) was signed on Nov. 2, 1982. In 1989 a consortium of Australian and Indonesian companies purchased 80% of Adaro Indonesia from Enadimsa.
In 2008, Adaro Energy raised $1.3 billion in the country's largest ever initial public offering.[5]
