Indonesia Waste Management Market by Waste Type (Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) or Household, Industrial, and Commercial) and by Waste Treatment (Composting, Incineration, Controlled Landfill, Uncontrolled Landfill, Sanitary Landfill, Open Dump, and Recycling)– Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2024 – 2030

Indonesia Waste Management Market size was valued at USD 15.11 billion in 2023, and is predicted to reach USD 31.15 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 9.80% from 2024 to 2030.

The increase in waste generation is driving significant growth in the waste management market. As waste volumes rise, the demand for effective waste management solutions intensifies. According to the latest report from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), Indonesia is the second-largest plastic polluter globally, producing 3.2 million tonnes of unmanaged plastic waste annually, with approximately 1.29 million tonnes ending up in the sea. Additionally, around 10 billion plastic carry bags, equivalent to 85,000 tonnes, are released into the environment each year. This escalating need for waste management drives innovation and investment in waste processing, recycling technologies, and sustainable practices, leading to expanded market opportunities and enhanced waste management systems.

Moreover, increasing urbanization further fuels market growth. As the urban population grows, so does the demand for efficient waste management solutions. The World Bank Group’s latest report shows that Indonesia’s urban population reached 162.5 million in 2023, up from 134.8 million in 2014, marking an 20.5% increase. This urban expansion requires the development of advanced waste processing, recycling infrastructure, and sustainable disposal practices, driving market expansion and fostering innovation.

However, limited infrastructure and regulatory challenges significantly hinder the growth of the waste management market in Indonesia. The country’s rapidly growing population and urbanization lead to a dramatic increase in waste generation, but the existing waste control infrastructure is struggling to keep pace. Many regions, especially in rural and remote areas, lack adequate waste collection and processing facilities, resulting in widespread issues such as illegal dumping and open burning.

On the other hand, the adoption of waste-to-energy technologies, including incineration, anaerobic digestion, and gasification, represents a major growth opportunity for the waste management market. These methods convert waste into usable energy, thereby decreasing reliance on landfills and supporting sustainable energy production. By turning waste into a valuable resource, waste-to-energy solutions advance environmental sustainability and stimulate market growth. This innovative approach is in line with global trends towards circular economy practices and provides economic advantages through energy generation from waste, creating a promising pathway for the expansion of the waste reduction sector.
