Largest bioenergy plants in the Gulf, South Asia and South East Asia
467 bioenergy records carry a capacity figure: 14.9 GW in total, of which 12.2 GW across 403 records is operating. Two lists, because a running plant and an announced one are not the same kind of fact. Every row links to its record and its public source.

Largest bioenergy plants under construction or announced
Capacity as announced by the source. A concept-stage figure means a public source names the project and a number, nothing more.

Questions about the largest bioenergy plants
What is the largest operating bioenergy plant in the Gulf, South Asia and South East Asia?+
By capacity on record, PT Musim Mas power station 1.0 in Indonesia at 2,134 MW. Solandor ranks operating plants by the capacity figure in the public source named on each record, whole project rather than any partner's share, and does not adjust for phased commissioning unless the source records the phases separately.
What is the largest bioenergy plant planned or under construction in the region?+
Barka power station 1.0 in Oman at 150 MW, at development stage. Announced capacity is kept in a separate list from operating capacity here because the two are different kinds of fact: 12.2 GW of the 14.9 GW on record for bioenergy is running.
How is this ranking compiled?+
From 467 published bioenergy records that carry a capacity figure, sorted by that figure. Each record names the public dataset it came from and links the page it was taken from. Records without a stated capacity are not ranked; a missing figure is not zero.
Other rankings: solar plants, wind farms, hydropower plants, energy storage projects, nuclear power plants, geothermal plants.
