Bantargebang Landfill Gas Management & Power Generation
PT Navigat Organic Energy Indonesia · West Java Province · — ha
Bantargebang is a CDM-registered landfill-gas-to-power project at Jakarta's main ~120 ha Bekasi landfill, developed by PT Navigat Organic Energy Indonesia under ACM0001 with estimated ~677,129 tCO2e/yr reductions. Original 2012-2019 crediting period expired and is not renewable. The site drew renewed scrutiny after a March 2026 waste-slope collapse killed seven and highlighted chronic methane and dumping problems.

Who operates Bantargebang Landfill Gas Management & Power Generation?
Bantargebang Landfill Gas Management & Power Generation is developed by PT Navigat Organic Energy Indonesia and listed on Verra VCS967.
What is its integrity score?
68 / 100. Driven down by registry transparency (55) and supported by community flags (75).
Why is it notable?
Operational context & latest news. Academic and government literature show the LFG plant has chronically under-delivered against its 15.6 MW nameplate (one 2017 assessment recorded only ~250 kW live output) even as separate pilots (a small Merah Putih WtE unit, ~700 kW / 100 t/day) were added on-site. On 30 Oct 2023 a ~10 ha surface fire in Zone II was officially attributed to methane ignition in hot weather . On 20 Mar 2026 Mongabay reported a 50 m waste-slope collapse that killed seven, prompting the Environment Minister to call it the 'tip of the iceberg' of failed waste governance ; on 16 Dec 2025 Antara reported a presidential push to eliminate the Bantargebang backlog within two years via a…

Analyst briefing
Plant basics & scale The Bantargebang Landfill Gas Management & Power Generation project is registered on the UNFCCC CDM pipeline (Ref RWTUV1340626014.25) under ACM0001 v11, classified as a large-scale Waste handling and disposal activity in Indonesia, with estimated reductions of 677,129 tCO2e/yr 1. A parallel VCS listing (VCS 967) cites ~708,300 tCO2e/yr and describes a landfill-gas capture system with flaring plus power generation on a 120 ha site 2. Third-party summaries cite a gas engine plant nameplate around 15.6 MW, though real output has historically run well below nameplate.
