Home > Corporate Profile > Banpu Today

After over two decades of dynamic growth, Banpu today is not only one of the foremost energy companies in Thailand, but is rapidly becoming a leading regional coal player through its operations in Indonesia and its investments in China.

Banpu has two core and complementary business lines - coal mining and coal-fired power generation:

Coal
Banpu has demonstrated core competence and competitive advantages in the cost-efficient development and operation of open-pit coal mines in Asia - and in both domestic and export grade thermal coal market.

Through recent investment, Banpu is also now
developing skills in underground mining. Banpu
currently manages production capacity of around
20.5 million tonnes per annum from its mines in
Indonesia. At the end of 2008, the Company's total attributable coal resources were 2,140.62 million tonnes, while its coal reserves were approximately 600 million tonnes.

Power
Banpu has been a pioneer in the successful development of IPPs and SPPs in Thailand. The Company now intends to use this experience and expertise to develop a business line of coal-fired power that is both complementary to and synergistic with its coal mining business.

Currently, Banpu has an investment in two (2) power generation companies in Thailand namely BLCP Power
Limited, a new 1,434 MW coal-fired power IPP in Rayong Province and Ratchaburi Electricity Holding Public
Company Limited (RATCH), a gas-fired power plant in Ratchaburi Province. Banpu also owns three combined
heat and power (CHP) operations in northern China namely Luannan and Zhengding in Hebei Province and
Zouping in Shandong Province.

In early 2009, Banpu entered into the Shareholders Agreement with RATCH and Lao Holding State
Enterprise (LHSE), a state owned enterprise of Lao PDR, to jointly establish Hongsa power Company Limited
(HPC) and Phu Fai Mining Company Limited (PFMC), both of which have the principle offices located at
Vientiane in Lao PDR. The objectives of HPC and PFMC are to implement and operate Hongsa Project,
a 1,800 MW mine-mouth power plant in Hongsa District, Xayabury Province of Lao PDR.
