Opportunities for waste management companies to provide waste-to-energy solutions in 7 Indonesian cities.

Management of waste is becoming a major problem in Indonesia. Early this year the Indonesian government issued Presidential Decree No. 18 of 2016 to accelerate the development of waste-to-energy in 7 cities, namely:

• Jakarta
• Tangerang
• Bandung
• Semarang
• Surakarta
• Surabaya
• Makassar

Currently Indonesia is facing difficulties in implementing PPP projects due to the complexity of tender process. However, this regulation provides a shortcut and allows the city mayors to directly appoint developers for waste-to-energy projects, creating immediate opportunities. To that end, the government seeks participation by companies providing waste-to-energy technologies besides incineration, such as gasification and pyrolysis. A minimum 1000 tonnes of waste per day will be processed, and the State Utility guarantees the purchase of electricity produced by the facility. Under the Waste Law, the government will finance waste management activities from the state/regional budget. In addition, Feed in Tariff for electricity generated from Municipal Waste is available at between US$ 18,77 to 22,43 cents per kiloWatt Hour.

Thai government support waste2energy projects by offering incentives for renewable energy in the form of Feed-in-Tariff (FIT) schemes.

Thailand Overview

The Thai government has an aggressive master plan to provide at least 25% of total domestic energy consumption from renewable sources by the year 2022.

Thailand produces about 14.5 million tonnes of municipal solid waste (MSW) per year.  Over the past 12 years the government has increased the budget for local administrations to collect and dispose solid waste.  However, the disposal of municipal solid waste remains a major problem.  There are about 100 proper landfill sites across the country but these only have the capacity to dispose of 45% of the total waste.  In the rural provincial areas, only 5% of solid waste can be properly disposed.  The rest is disposed by open dumping, open burning or left over at the dumping sites.  The increase in personal consumption that creates MSW indicates that Thailand has high potential in converting MSW into energy.
