Subject to winning the Bid, and entry into the relevant power purchase agreement with PT PLN, the Consortium will construct and commission the Project, enabling it to produce and supply the electrical power to PT PLN.

Mr Philip Cecil Rickard, BlackGold Executive Director and CEO commented: "We are very heartened by the strong interest and support demonstrated by the investors who are participating in this placement. These proceeds will further augment our readiness for the Project as we await the outcome of the Bid from PT PLN."
