Indonesia Reopens Selection for Waste-to-Energy Project Partners

PT Danantara Investment Management (DIM) has reopened the registration for its Selected Provider List (DPT) to find partners for waste-to-energy (WTE) projects in Indonesia. This initiative, managed through DIM's subsidiary PT Daya Energi Bersih Nusantara (Denera), seeks national and international companies capable of handling both the technical and financial aspects of these projects.

“

The challenge of waste management in Indonesia cannot be solved solely through individual projects. We need an ecosystem of credible partners with technology, funding capacity, operational capabilities, and long-term commitment to execute projects on a large scale.

The reopened selection follows two previous rounds that attracted companies from seven countries. The WTE program aligns with Presidential Regulation No. 109 of 2025, which mandates accelerating the development of facilities to convert waste into energy. The goal is twofold: to tackle urban waste management challenges and to produce electricity from processed waste.

For this selection round, DIM and Denera are looking for partners with a proven track record in WTE project development, engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC), technology provision, operations and maintenance (O&M), project financing, and related infrastructure services. Key evaluation criteria will include technical capabilities, funding capacity, experience, and the ability to execute large-scale projects.

Through the DPT registration, Danantara is expanding this ecosystem while opening opportunities for more national and international business players to bring their best experience and capabilities into the WTE program in Indonesia.

Fadli Rahman, DIM's Investment Director and CEO of Denera, emphasized the need for a broad ecosystem of credible partners. "The challenge of waste management in Indonesia cannot be solved solely through individual projects," he stated. "We need an ecosystem of credible partners with technology, funding capacity, operational capabilities, and long-term commitment to execute projects on a large scale." He added that the registration process aims to expand this ecosystem and offer more national and international businesses opportunities to contribute their expertise to Indonesia's WTE program, prioritizing strong partnerships, proven capabilities, and impactful execution.

Our priority remains the same, which is strong partnerships, proven capabilities, and execution that yields real impact on the ground.
