Waste-to-Energy systems serve as the solution for two separate issues because they handle expanding urban waste amounts and fulfill rising need for power generation. The public must accept Waste-to-Energy systems to achieve success because these systems serve to decrease landfill waste while they create energy from waste materials. This study collected 175 adult participants through purposive sampling to complete a cross-sectional questionnaire survey. The study obtained response data through a five-point Likert scale which SPSS software processed with descriptive statistics and correlation analysis to determine how socioeconomic and institutional elements impact the results. This results showed that 34% of respondents accepted the matter at a moderate level while 29% showed high acceptance and 14% demonstrated very high acceptance. The majority of people showed moderate awareness levels which reached 40 % but 19 % of people said they had no knowledge. Younger respondents between 26 and 30 years old demonstrated the strongest agreement with a mean score of 3.78 but people over 51 years old showed the weakest agreement with a mean score of 3.42. The survey showed that 41% of people had moderate trust in government while 37% expressed high trust in government institutions. Public acceptance of policies is largely determined by citizens understand these policies in conjunction with their social contexts as well as their level of trust in institutions and their evaluation of government actions.
