The Chengda Engineering Corporation of China (CECC) has completed a power plant project worth 510 million U.S. dollars that began to pass a test Friday in the Indonesian province of Central Java.

Started in April 2004, the project in the town of Cilacap was completed three months earlier than schedule, executives with the company said.

The 600-MW power plant is expected to help supply electricity to densely populated islands of Java, Bali and Madura.

During the trial period beginning Friday, the steam-powered plant would operate non-stop for 168 hours.
