Danantara Appoints Partners for Second Phase of Waste-to-Energy Plants in Eight Locations
Danantara has appointed eight partners to develop and manage Waste-to-Energy (PSEL) facilities in the second phase across eight locations. PT Danantara Investment Management Director of Investment and Chief Executive Officer of PT Daya Energi Bersih Nusantara (Denera), Fadli Rahman, stated that the project value at each site ranges from Rp 3 trillion to Rp 3.5 trillion. “This means that across these eight locations, the total will be between Rp 24 trillion and Rp 25 trillion,” he said at Wisma Danantara in Jakarta on Monday, 13 July 2026.
The selected partners are consortiums comprising both foreign and local companies. The foreign firms originate from France, Japan, and China. They were chosen from a list of 85 companies that qualified for the selected provider list in May. Fadli Rahman said the construction process would be strictly monitored and reported regularly to all stakeholders. “We will also form a special team to monitor the construction, preparation, and the construction itself on a regular basis,” he stated.
The list of selected consortiums for the PSEL projects in eight locations is as follows: SUEZ-IAN Consortium for Medan Raya; Consortium Everbright Cemerlang Energy for Bekasi Regency; Bumi Biru Indonesia for Lampung Raya; Masa Depan Energi Indonesia for Serang Raya; Veolia Environmental Services Asia Pte. Ltd for Semarang Raya; Consortium Mentari Citra Lestari for Surabaya Raya; MPM-CEVIA Consortium for Bogor Raya 2; and Cakra Energi Lestari Consortium for Yogyakarta Raya.
Fadli Rahman noted that the facilities will adopt European emission standards, an approach similar to the PSEL project in Denpasar Raya, which commenced construction on Wednesday, 8 July 2026. PT Danantara Investment Management Chief Executive Officer Pandu Patria Sjahrir said four of the eight selected partners are consortiums led by Indonesian companies, while two are led by French firms and two by Chinese firms. All consortiums have partnered with international technology providers to expedite project implementation and promote technology transfer. “We see this as an opportunity to accelerate technology transfer, build national capacity, and strengthen the waste management industry ecosystem in Indonesia,” Pandu said.
