Tamangapa landfill is main landfill in Makassar city. Some of significant problems arise from the Tamangapa landfil. One of them is environmental pollution caused by waste production. On the other side, the methane gas produced by organic waste can be used for electrical generation via waste power plant. This research examined the potential of methane gas production. It also studied the potential of electrical power generation based on sanitary landfill model. The prediction of waste amount had been done using linear regression method with SPSS software. Based on calculation, the cumulative methane gas production is 134,889.96 m3 in 2029. The cumulative electrical energy and power that can be generated are 1,065.63 GWh and 121.647 MW, respectively.
