JAKARTA - Danantara Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Rosan Roeslani revealed, there are 192 companies interested in investing in waste processing into electricity or waste to energy (WTE) projects.

Rosan did not mention in detail the name of the company that asked for this waste processing project.

Even so, he revealed that these investors came from within and outside the country.

From domestic, foreign companies, the Tbk companies are also domestic and foreign. From abroad, there are from China, there are Korea, the Netherlands is there, Germany is there, Japan also has Australia, Singapore especially, Malaysia is also there," he said when met at the Indonesia International Sustainability Forum (ISF) event in Jakarta, Friday, October 10.

Rosan said the waste processing project to electricity is planned to be carried out in 33 cities throughout Indonesia. Where the total investment required reaches IDR 91 trillion.

Rosan said, the initial stage will be carried out in 10 big cities first such as the cities of Tangerang, Jakarta, Bandung, Yogyakarta, Semarang, Surabaya, Bali and Makassar.

"Maybe the total investment reached approximately Rp. 91 trillion for approximately 33 regions," said Rosan.

Rosan bilang, angka investasi tersebut disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan pengolahan 1.000 ton sampah per hari.

Sehingga satu kota bisa memiliki lebih dari satu Pengolahan Sampah menjadi Energi Listrik (PSEL).

Rosan said the investment figure was adjusted to the processing needs of 1,000 tons of waste per day.

So that one city can have more than one Waste Processing into Electricity (PSEL).

"But most likely because at that time the figure taken was based on 1,000 tons (garbage per day) because in one area it could be more," he said.
