Background: Biomass energy is considered a sustainable solution with significant potential to enhance energy security and the national economy of Indonesia. Indonesia has vast potential for developing biomass energy from sources such as agricultural waste and wood. Biomass energy serves various purposes and can be used in electricity generation, household heating, industrial applications, and transportation. Methods: This article utilizes literature review to discuss the current status of biomass energy in Indonesia and the policies regulating its utilization for optimal benefits. Finding: Several policy recommendations based on the pentahelix scheme are proposed. The government should establish regulations and provide incentives for biomass energy from agricultural waste, as well as promote infrastructure investments. Private corporations should engage in technology development and partnerships with farmers. The community should be educated about the importance of agricultural waste management and encouraged to participate in biomass energy programs. Media should disseminate information and cover biomass energy projects. Academics should research new technologies and conduct training to enhance farmers' capacities. Conclusion: Therefore, biomass energy can be developed as a solution to achieve energy security and national economic development. Novelty/Originality of This Study: This study offers a novel integrative approach by applying the pentahelix model to formulate comprehensive policy recommendations for optimizing biomass energy utilization in Indonesia.
