[SMM Aluminum Express News] Indonesia's sovereign wealth fund Danantara (Badan Pengelola Investasi Daya Anagata Nusantara) has taken full control of the strategic PLTSa (waste-to-energy power plant) project in Samarinda, East Kalimantan. Head of Samarinda PUPR Office Desy Damayanti stated that per the latest 2026 central government regulation, local governments can no longer pursue independent agreements with investors, all PLTSa projects must go through Danantara as a single gateway. This centralization ensures uniform technology standards, financing schemes, and national oversight across Indonesia. It automatically cancels Samarinda's prior negotiations with a South Korean investor.
