Perpres 109/2025 Fixed the Price. Now, Who Will Fix the Fuel? 🇮🇩⚡

The new era of PSEL (Pengolahan Sampah Menjadi Energi Listrik) in Indonesia has officially kicked off. The transition from Perpres 35/2018 to Perpres 109/2025 is a bold move to avert the 2028 Landfill Crisis.

By centralizing procurement through Danantara and setting a fixed tariff of USD 0.20/kWh, the government has made PSEL bankable on paper. But for developers, the “math” has fundamentally changed.

The Reality Check: With the Tipping Fee (APBD) being phased out or capped, your plant’s survival now depends 100% on electricity output. This creates two massive hurdles:

1. The “Porridge” Problem: Indonesian waste is high-moisture (60-70%) and organic-heavy. Standard “European” dryers or incinerators often fail, leading to skyrocketing maintenance and plummeting efficiency.
2. The 1,000 Ton/Day Mandate: Meeting the mandatory volume is one thing; ensuring that volume has the calorific value to stay solvent is another.

At Synkrona, we bridge the gap between global technology and Indonesian reality. We provide the rigorous technical expertise required to turn “wet liabilities” into “bankable assets.” From thermal balancing to PPA de-risking, we ensure your project meets the high standards of international lenders and Danantara.
