On February 5, 2026, our center organized the “Taiwan–Indonesia Waste-to-Energy (WtE) Webinar” via Zoom.
The webinar was moderated by STIC Vice Director Dr. IDAA Warmadewanthi, and the opening remarks were delivered by STIC Director Dr. JC Liu.
In the first session, Prof. Joni Hermana delivered a presentation entitled “Policy and Implementation of Waste-to-Energy in Indonesia.” He introduced Indonesia’s policy framework and targets for waste-to-energy development, including relevant government regulations, national energy policies, the potential and utilization of new and renewable energy (NRE), and the current operational status of waste-to-energy power plants (PLTSa). He also outlined Indonesia’s future roadmap for environmentally friendly waste-to-energy facility development and discussed key implementation challenges. In recent years, the Indonesian government has actively promoted waste reduction and energy recovery policies, positioning WtE as a crucial solution to landfill saturation and carbon reduction goals. These policy developments drew significant attention from participants.
In the second session, Ms. Judy Wang presented “Knowledge Sharing: Waste-to-Energy Technologies and Promotion Ways.” She introduced Taiwan’s waste management market, incineration and energy recovery technologies, operational practices, and market analysis of Taiwan’s WtE industry. Her presentation provided practical insights from both industrial and corporate perspectives, highlighting Taiwan’s mature experience in waste treatment and energy conversion.
In the final session, Prof. Chang-Ping Yu presented “Taiwan’s Waste-to-Fuel Industry: Development and Management.” He discussed the development history of Taiwan’s waste-to-energy industry, relevant policy regulations, fuel standards, and particularly the development and management framework of Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF). Since Indonesia currently focuses mainly on Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) and has not yet fully developed an SRF system, this topic was especially novel and valuable to Indonesian participants, leading to active and in-depth discussions during the Q&A session.
