This time PT Rekadaya Elektrika (RE) will review the progress of the work of one of the transmission projects located in Central Maluku and Seram districts, namely the Piru-Kairatu 150 kV Transmission Line.

The electricity infrastructure project owned by PLN UPP Maluku which is entrusted to Rekadaya Elektrika, will later combine 2 (two) Piru Substations (GI) and Kairatu GI, with a total of 123 towers.

As of the 2nd week of January, work progress had reached 45.487% (leading) where land clearing and foundation construction work had progressed significantly.
The total installed foundations are currently 72 foundations (of the target of 123 foundations), with a transmission line of 91 kms. TL 150 kV Piru – Kairatu is planned to be energized at the end of 2023.

Like the projects that Rekadaya Elektrika has worked on, the Piru-Kairatu TL project also faced several technical problems in the field during the construction process. Such as access to material alerts which is difficult because of the hilly terrain and high rainfall in the last few months.

However, the RE Project Team continues to strive and provide the best results to achieve progress in the construction of this transmission line, so that it can immediately meet the electricity needs on Seram Island, Maluku. Electrical Rekadaya will always play an active role and make a real contribution in building and increasing the reliability of the electricity system throughout Indonesia.
