Indonesia Waste to Energy Summit 2026

Indonesia’s Waste-to-Energy Summit 2026: Gathering 200+ industry leaders and experts in Jakarta to drive zero-waste innovation and investment.

Date: 28–29 April 2026
Location: Jakarta, Indonesia
Participation: Limited Seats Available

Towards a Zero Waste Future

Indonesia is accelerating its journey toward a cleaner and more sustainable future. With a population of over 275 million, the country generates around 56.6 million tonnes of waste each year, of which 60.9% remains unmanaged and ends up in open dumps.

To address this challenge, the Government of Indonesia is strengthening waste management policy through the National Waste Management Strategy, targeting a 30% reduction in waste generation and 70% proper handling by 2025. In October 2025, Prabowo Subianto signed Presidential Regulation (Perpres) No. 109/2025, mandating the development of Waste-to-Energy (WTE) facilities in 34 regencies and cities generating more than 1,000 tons of waste per day. Each facility will process 1,000 tons of waste daily and generate 15 MW of electricity.

Against this background, Indonesia Waste to Energy Summit 2026 will take place on 28–29 April 2026 in Jakarta, Indonesia. More than 200 policymakers, leading industry players, landfill and WtE operators, technology and solution providers, and academic experts are invited to participate in this event. The summit will feature in-depth discussions on key topics in the sector and practical approaches to addressing current challenges through collaboration.
