Indonesia’s Lampung Provincial Government has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Malaysian company Citaglobal Berhad to develop waste-to-energy (WtE) and renewable energy (RE) projects in Lampung province. The partnership aims to convert urban and industrial waste into power as part of efforts to build a green industrial ecosystem and promote circular economy practices in the region.
The collaboration includes the development of a waste-to-energy facility using German technology to process municipal waste and generate electricity for the local grid. In addition, the partners will explore the conversion of agricultural residues, including Palm Oil Mill Effluent, into biogas for industrial power generation. The agreement also covers feasibility studies for floating solar projects on three dams in the province, each with an estimated capacity of 150 MW to 200 MW.
Lampung has been identified by the Indonesian central government as a priority region for integrated environmental and renewable energy solutions due to its strategic logistics position and proximity to the national capital. Alongside energy infrastructure development, the partnership also includes a mangrove restoration programme aimed at generating carbon credits and supporting broader sustainability objectives in the province.
