Several small warehouses along the planned roads will house explosives used to blast through rocky terrain and to construct a diversion channel for river flows. Company executives say they are awaiting final approval from Indonesia's National Police before explosives can be brought in and used.

"After we're done blasting the diversion channel, which will [start] early next year, then we'll begin construction of the body of the dam," said KHE director for operations Khaerony in comments to reporters on Sunday at the proposed site of the first dam -- a two-and-a-half-hour boat ride from Tanjung Selor, the capital of North Kalimantan.

The Kayan Cascade project will eventually comprise five dams with a combined power generation capacity of 9 gigawatts, which would make it Southeast Asia's largest hydroelectric station. The project is expected to cost $17 billion and scheduled to be fully up and running by 2035. [...]
