Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 07
Abstract
Biomass is a renewable alternative fuel source that is more environmentally friendly than other fuels. Currently PT ABC has a biomass plant that produces wood chips and wood pellets in the West Java region. The purpose of this study is to analyse the business strategy and funding needed by PT ABC to enter the biomass industry in West Java. The research method used is a combination of descriptive and case study methods, with data collection through interviews, document analysis, and direct observation. SWOT, PESTEL, and Porter’s Five Forces analyses were conducted to evaluate the company’s internal and external situation. Furthermore, this research designs the right funding strategy based on 5 funding alternatives sourced from venture capital, Angel Investors, Banks, IPOs and Bonds. Based on the comparison results, alternative 3 (Bank Loan) is more profitable. This alternative provides NPV of Rp 8,503,386,171.21, Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 31%, Payback Period (PP) for 4 years. This alternative will increase the value of the company in several ways such as diversification of financial risks, tax benefits on interest payments, guaranteed retained earnings, quick disbursement of funds, and maintaining the balance of shareholders’ equity. The findings of this study highlight the huge potential of the biomass market in West Java and Indonesia, and the importance of an appropriate funding strategy. This research provides valuable insights for companies looking to enter the biomass industry.
