Danantara: PSEL Bogor Raya 1 Can Supply Green Energy to Residents' Homes

Sep, 21 2026

Bogor Regency, West Java (ANTARA) - The Anagata Nusantara Investment Management Agency (Danantara) revealed that the Bogor Raya 1 Waste to Electricity Processing (PSEL) project is projected to supply green energy to more than 100,000 homes in the Bogor Raya community.

"From an energy perspective, this initiative will produce green energy that can supply more than 100,000 homes in the Greater Bogor area," said BPI Danantara Chief Investment Officer (CIO) Pandu Patria Sjahrir at the inauguration of the Bogor Raya 1 PSEL development in Bogor Regency, West Java on Thursday.

Pandu said that the PSEL Bogor Raya 1 project was designed to provide a real impact on waste management, green energy, and empower the local economy by referring to environmental standards.

This project, he continued, is targeted to be able to process more than 500,000 tons of waste per year or around 45 percent of the waste generation that can be processed in the city and district of Bogor.

According to him, from an environmental perspective, PSEL is also projected to reduce waste emissions from final disposal sites (TPA) by up to 80 percent and reduce carbon emissions by 640,000 tons of CO2 equivalent per year.

"This initiative is also worth Rp2.8 trillion in investment and, God willing, will create around 1,200 jobs and reduce the need for landfill space by around 80 percent," Pandu said.

He said that today the progress of the PSEL Bogor Raya 1 development project has entered an important stage, namely the signing of the power purchase agreement.

And this, said Pandu, marks the readiness to encourage the realization of integrated waste management solutions in Indonesia, which will continue in Greater Bogor after Danantara did so in Bekasi City and Greater Denpasar.

For information, Coordinating Minister for Food Zulkifli Hasan (Zulhas) said the government is simplifying regulations for the development of Waste Processing into Electrical Energy (PSEL) projects to accelerate the handling of urban waste problems.

According to him, the construction of the waste-to-energy processing facility had previously been slow because developers had to go through various stages of approval, licensing, and inter-agency coordination.

He gave an example that developers must coordinate with the local government, the Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD), the provincial government, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, the Ministry of Environment, and PT PLN (Persero) before the project can be realized.

Government Takes Firm Action Against Thuggery, APINDO West Java: Investors Should Not Hesitate to Enter West Java

Warta Ekonomi, Bandung - On Friday, February 21, 2025, at the West Java DPRD Building, a joint commitment was signed between the Governor of West Java, Dedi Mulyadi, the Chairman of the West Java DPRD, Pangdam III Siliwangi, Pangdam Jaya, the West Java Police Chief, the West Java High Prosecutor's Office, and the Metro Jaya Police Chief. This commitment emphasizes the synergy between institutions in eradicating acts of thuggery that have disrupted order and the business world in West Java. This firm step received full appreciation from the Chairman of the West Java Indonesian Employers Association (APINDO), Ning Wahyu. According to him, this policy is a breath of fresh air for business actors who have faced pressure from certain groups that hinder business activities. "This commitment is very positive because it provides certainty for the business world. So far, disturbances from irresponsible mass organizations have often occurred in industrial areas and outside the area. With this policy, we hope that the investment climate in West Java will be more conducive," said Ning, Thursday (26/2/2025). Furthermore, Ning emphasized that Governor Dedi Mulyadi's steps in eradicating thuggery and disturbing mass organizations will have a significant impact on business security, increase investor confidence, and maintain workforce stability. Currently, West Java has the highest unemployment rate in Indonesia, which is 1.76 million people or around 23.7% of the national total. Therefore, APINDO Jabar emphasizes the importance of maintaining investment so that it does not leave West Java, which has the potential to cause an increase in the number of layoffs (PHK). "Security in business is very important because it not only protects investment, but also ensures the continuity of work for employees and community businesses around the industrial area," he added. Ning also assessed that Dedi Mulyadi's leadership is very much needed by the business world. A firm attitude and courage in enforcing the law are key factors in creating a healthy investment climate. "Kang Dedi is not only a leader who is firm in speaking, but also dares to take real action. Since the beginning of his term, he has shown his commitment to creating a safe and investment-friendly West Java," he said. In addition, Ning highlighted the direct approach taken by Governor Dedi Mulyadi in understanding the conditions of the business world. According to him, the presence of a leader who goes down to the field and witnesses firsthand the challenges of entrepreneurs is a strategic step in formulating effective policies. APINDO Jabar hopes that under the leadership of Dedi Mulyadi, collaboration between the government and the business world will be even closer. "With strong synergy, the government and business actors can work together to create jobs, improve people's welfare, and build a more advanced and competitive West Java," he concluded. (SOURCE)

West Java Supports Rp1.44 Trillion Investment in the Saguling Floating Solar Power Plant

The West Java Provincial Government is accelerating its efforts to establish the province as Indonesia’s national hub for green energy investment by facilitating the realization of the Saguling Floating Solar Power Plant (PLTS) project, valued at approximately US$80 million (around IDR 1.44 trillion). The strategic project is one of West Java’s flagship initiatives for attracting investment in the renewable energy sector while reinforcing the province’s commitment to a clean energy transition. This commitment was demonstrated through the active participation of the West Java Provincial Government in the open debottlenecking session of the Project Problem-Solving Acceleration Service for Strategic Projects (P2SP), held at the Ministry of Finance Building in Jakarta in early May 2026. The forum served as a platform for coordination among ministries, government agencies, local governments, and investors to address issues that could potentially delay investment realization, including administrative, technical, and licensing challenges. Dedi Taufik, Head of the West Java Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Agency (DPMPTSP), emphasized that accelerating the resolution of investment-related obstacles is crucial for maintaining investor confidence and ensuring that strategic projects are implemented according to schedule. According to Dedi, the Saguling Floating Solar Power Plant holds a significant position in West Java’s renewable energy development roadmap, which continues to be promoted as one of the province’s leading investment sectors. “This project not only supports the development of environmentally friendly energy but also strengthens West Java’s competitiveness and attractiveness as a destination for renewable energy investment,” Dedi Taufik stated in a press release quoted on Tuesday (June 16, 2026). The West Java Provincial Government believes that the project’s success should not be measured solely by its investment value, which amounts to trillions of rupiah, but also by the economic impact it generates. The Saguling Floating Solar Power Plant is expected to create new employment opportunities, stimulate economic activity in surrounding areas, and deliver long-term benefits to local communities. For this reason, the provincial government continues to strengthen its role as an investment facilitator by ensuring that all processes are carried out more effectively, systematically, and with greater certainty for businesses. Dedi further emphasized that every investment project entering West Java should generate added value for regional development rather than merely bringing in capital. Through this approach, West Java seeks to maintain a balance between economic growth, job creation, and environmentally sustainable development. Moving forward, DPMPTSP West Java will continue to strengthen cross-sector coordination, accelerate licensing services, and foster closer collaboration with various stakeholders to ensure that the investment climate remains competitive and conducive. “West Java is committed to being an investment-friendly region while simultaneously supporting sustainable development. The Saguling Floating Solar Power Plant project is a tangible manifestation of that commitment,” he concluded. [SOURCE]
