The national level "Waste to Energy" (WtE) project in Indonesia has officially launched and is open for global bidding. We sincerely invite relevant Chinese enterprises to participate. The project is led by Danantara Indonesia, a state-owned asset investment company, and plans to build 33 garbage power stations in 33 cities across the country, with a daily processing capacity of 1000 tons of garbage per station and a total investment of approximately 2-3 trillion Indonesian rupiahs.

As the core strategy for Indonesia to achieve net zero emissions by 2060, the project sites have been fully determined. In the first phase, priority will be given to launching core cities such as Jakarta, Bandung, Semarang, Yogyakarta, Surabaya, and Bali. According to the Indonesian National Waste Management Information System, the country's waste production is expected to reach 34.6 million tons by 2025, of which 20.7 million tons will be untreated. After the project is implemented, the annual power generation of a single power station can reach 15 megawatts, meeting the electricity needs of 20000 households and reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 50% -90%.

Indonesian President Prabowo has opened up a green channel for the project, compressing the administrative process to three months and requiring it to be completed within 18 months. The new presidential regulation is about to be promulgated, significantly simplifying the investment process and introducing a policy of exempting dumping fees. The National Power Company (PLN) has set a preferential electricity price of 0.2 US dollars per kilowatt hour, providing subsidy support and reducing operating costs for enterprises.

Currently, about 120 companies have submitted bids, with the core criteria for winning bids being to provide the best technology while minimizing environmental impact. The head of Danantara Indonesia previously inspected the Weiming Waste to Energy Plant in Yongqiang, Wenzhou, China and expressed recognition of China's technological strength.

As a collaborative hub, the Foreign Investment Working Committee of the Asian Economic Cooperation Association provides full process support, including direct communication with senior management of Indonesian project parties, policy interpretation, and bidding guidance. The project has raised 50 trillion Indonesian rupiah through Patriot bonds to ensure the repayment of funds. Adaptation enterprises can submit registration applications, and after review, organize project briefing meetings and business inspections to assist in liaising with the Indonesian side and support the entire bidding process.
