PSEL Bogor Raya 1 Built with an Investment of IDR 2.8 Trillion, Processes 1,500 Tons of Waste per Day

BOGOR, GARISBUMI.com – Construction of the Bogor Raya 1 Waste to Electrical Energy (PSEL) Processing facility officially started in Galuga Village, Cibungbulang District, Bogor Regency, Thursday, September 17 2026.

The National Strategic Project with an investment value of IDR 2.8 trillion is targeted to be able to process up to 1,500 tons of waste per day while producing electrical energy.

PSEL Bogor Raya 1 is planned to be completed in a maximum of two years and fully operational in mid-2028. This facility is projected to manage more than 500 thousand tons of waste every year.

The inauguration of the construction of PSEL Bogor Raya 1 was held by Danantara Indonesia together with a number of stakeholders and accompanied by the Ministry of the Environment/Environmental Control Agency (KLH/Environmental Management Agency (BPLH)).

Minister of the Environment/Head of Environmental Management Agency (BPLH) Moh Jumhur Hidayat reminded that the construction of these facilities should not neglect waste handling during the construction period.

"The problem is that from now until two years, the waste will continue. Especially organic waste which causes odors and so on, it will also continue," said Jumhur while attending the inauguration of the construction of PSEL Bogor Raya 1.

According to him, waste handling must continue to be carried out continuously until the facility is operational. Similar problems also need to be addressed in areas that do not yet have waste processing facilities into electrical energy.
