Since the Dutch colonial period, Hydroelectric Power Plants (PLTA) have developed in Indonesia. In 1910 there were 40 private tea plantations using hydropower for their production. Then during the New Order era, its development grew more rapidly because of the Five Year Development Program (Pelita) III. The program aims to distribute electricity in remote areas on the island of Java. Because at that time the island of Java had the highest population density. So that the need for electricity is also getting bigger every year, but on the other hand, the supply of electricity generation is still minimal. At that time, in the electricity sector, Central Java Province was still lagging behind West Java and East Java. With the main objective to support electricity needs in Java, the Mrica hydropower plant was built in Banjarnegara Regency.
