Unleashing Biomass Power Potential in Indonesia – Insights from Surabaya

Date:2026-02-25

Indonesia's journey toward renewable energy innovation is gaining real traction with pilot projects like the Surabaya Waste-to-Energy and Biomass Power Plant in East Java — a landmark effort to convert municipal waste and biomass feedstocks into clean electricity. With an approximately 11 MW integrated plant supplying energy to thousands of homes, this initiative demonstrates the practical viability of scaling biomass solutions beyond feasibility studies.

 

Key Stakeholders Driving the Project
• Led by the Surabaya City Government in collaboration with PT. SUMBER ORGANIK, this plant represents an effective public-private model for energy transition.
• The project highlights growing opportunities for EPC partners, gasification technology providers, combustion and turbine suppliers, and waste-to-energy system integrators — sectors poised for expansion across Indonesia.

 

Why This Matters for ASEAN Energy Markets
Indonesia continues advancing biomass integration at national scale — notably with Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) expanding biomass co-firing across dozens of power plants, reducing carbon emission footprints and attracting technology developers.
Thailand and ASEAN have similar biomass assets — from agricultural residues to forestry byproducts — ready to be harnessed for power generation, heating, and hybrid renewable systems. This signals not just environmental benefit but strong commercial prospects for developers, technology suppliers, EPC firms, and fuel logistics partners.

 

At ABEE 2026 — Advised by EGAT, MOE Thailand and TCEB Thailand Exhibitions — we bring together key movers across the biomass value chain. From proven gasification technologies and boiler manufacturers to solution providers in waste-to-energy integration, ABEE connects international buyers with global suppliers and project-ready partners.

 

Don't miss your opportunity to engage with decision-makers, technology leaders, and government-backed initiatives shaping ASEAN's bioenergy future.
