Indonesia's sovereign wealth fund institution Danantara is about to announce the results of the first phase of the waste-to-energy project (PLTSa) tender. It is currently awaiting bidders to submit final documents approved by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry and the Coordinating Ministry for Food Affairs by January 7, 2025. The CEO stated that the first phase of the tender has been launched after determining 24 shortlisted technology suppliers (DPT), and the winners will be announced after the bid opening on January 7; the second phase of the tender is planned to commence in mid-January. The first phase covers at least 7-10 regions, launched on November 6, 2024. A company director stated that each DPT must form a consortium with local Indonesian enterprises, private companies, state-owned enterprises, or regional state-owned enterprises in their respective winning regions to advance the project, and each DPT can bid for multiple projects. All 24 DPTs were selected from approximately 200 applicant companies and are currently all foreign-invested (from Europe, China, Japan). Since Indonesia has no experience in incineration technology, Danantara selected international vendors with waste-to-energy (PSEL) experience to accelerate project progress. The institution also requires all technology suppliers to cooperate with Indonesian enterprises to achieve technology transfer.
