“…As a synthesis, our study thoroughly reviews Waste-to-Energy (WtE) regulations in Indonesia, making a contribution to complement previous studies on WtE in the country. Notably, our contribution complements prior studies, such as the work of Aziz et al (2022), which focused on challenges in adopting WtE policies from developed nations to Indonesia. Additionally, Mustafa et al (2022) concentrated on estimating emission reduction benefits arising from diverse WtE policy scenarios.…”

“…Our study also assesses Indonesia's commitment to NDC within the WtE sector, evaluates the effectiveness of WtE regulation implementation, and provides recommendations and solutions to stakeholders and authorities. Our study endeavors to bridge a gap in previous WtE research conducted in Indonesia, predominantly concentrating on technology, social, and economic issues (Aziz et al, 2022;Budihardjo et al, 2023;Mustafa et al, 2022). By addressing this gap, we aspire to contribute valuable insights to the existing body of knowledge and foster a more holistic understanding of the intricacies associated with WtE regulations in the Indonesian context.…”

Municipal solid waste (MSW) stands out as a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, with Indonesia ranking among the world's largest contributors. The Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) commits Indonesia to minimize MSW emissions through renewable energy development, a central aspect of addressing the climate change crisis. In response, Presidential Regulation Number 35 of 2018 was introduced to vitalize these efforts. However, despite these initiatives, the existing legal framework has not adequately addressed the issue. This research aims to address two pivotal questions: How does Indonesian law regulate the conversion of waste into energy? To what extent do current regulations encompass Waste-to-Energy power plants? Employing a normative legal analysis, this study critically examines national legal instruments related to renewable energy, utilizing a statutory approach. Our findings underscore that current regulations concerning renewable energy lack effectiveness in ensuring availability, resilience, and national energy independence in a sustainable manner. Our study contributes to the existing body of research by delving into aspects of Waste-to-Energy regulation in Indonesia, an area that has not been extensively explored in previous studies.

The remuneration scheme for the electricity produced by Waste-to-Energy (WtE) recovery plants has changed recently in Portugal according to 2020 legislation. The new model, linking the electricity remuneration from WtE plants to the spot electricity prices, is expected to bring greater uncertainty in the waste activity, which is a novelty for the sector. In Portugal, Valorsul is the municipal waste treatment entity responsible for the recovery and treatment of municipal solid waste (MSW) produced in 19 municipalities in the Lisbon area. This paper highlights the impact of the new Portuguese electricity remuneration scheme for electricity from waste on Valorsul’s WtE plant. For this purpose, the new remuneration scheme is modeled and simulated based on electricity spot market price scenarios, which are compared with the base case scenario of the former remuneration scheme. Considering different electricity prices for the electricity produced by the WtE plant, the present study anticipates the consequences of the gate-fee of such regulatory changes. Results show that any price changes in the electricity remuneration scheme are offset by equivalent changes in the waste gate-fee. Consequently, the change in the remuneration of the electricity from the WtE plant is, in fact, neutral for the Valorsul accounts and lower revenues from the electricity generation activity of the WtE will negatively impact the gate-fee prices paid by the waste users.

“…Issues in waste management in Indonesia are unplanned settlements, political involvement, insufficient funding, and unauthorized dumps, which present significant economic and environmental risks (Abdulnabi Ali et al, 2023). To address these difficulties, it is crucial to use participatory methods and include all important stakeholders, along with suitable frameworks and government participation (Aziz et al, 2022). By putting in place a successful waste management system, Indonesia can decrease environmental pollution, protect the health of the country, and encourage economic growth.…”

This study explores how social capital, community empowerment, and social entrepreneurship efforts impact sustainable waste management practices in Indonesia. A numerical method was used to survey 238 different villages in various areas. Key features, such as where the samples were located, how many people were involved, and their social and economic backgrounds, were thoroughly examined. Descriptive statistics, evaluation of the measurement model, and analysis of the structural model were conducted to understand the complex connections between the variables under investigation. The results show important and beneficial connections between social capital, community empowerment, social entrepreneurship projects, and waste management techniques. The model fit assessment attests to the validity of the proposed relationships. In addition, an obvious implication of this research is the increased awareness of each party be it the community, government and social enterprises. Community engagement through the level of social capital has been recognised in this study followed by statistical evidence, as well as community empowerment and social entrepreneurship. Effective waste management is generated by collaboration between all elements.
