Video: Building Waste Power Plants, "Complex" Regulations Still Pose Challenges

Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - The renewable energy and new energy business through solar power plants (PLTS) and hydroelectric power plants (PLTA), as well as waste-to-energy (WtE) projects or waste power plants (PLTSa), is described by the President Director of PT Astrindo Nusantara Infrastruktur Tbk (BIPI), Ray Anthony Gerungan, as a new business supporting the energy transition that is beginning to venture into non-coal sectors. Learning from Chinese technology and systems, one clean energy project being promoted is WtE with a target for operations within three years. Regulatory issues are still being refined, thus strong government support is very much needed. BIPI is also opening investment opportunities in several renewable energy sectors, from solar power plants to biomass, although it still faces a number of challenges.
