The challenge
Following the Paris Agreement in 2015, Indonesia has committed to achieve a specific target for emission reduction. As stated in the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC), the country aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by 29% by its own effort and 41% with support from developed countries by 2030. One of the sectors in Indonesia that affect the country’s climate policies is energy sector, which contributes 314 million tonnes of CO2. Since many different organisations are currently working on energy, climate, and finance sectors; coherence and inter-ministerial cooperation need to be strengthened to effectively achieve the national emission reduction target while providing reliable and least-cost electricity supply.
Objective
ExploRE aims to provide strategy options to be piloted for increasing the use of renewable energy in the sector of energy, climate, development, and fiscal. The strategy options are targeted to help create a more coherent environment among key players to better contribute to Indonesia’s climate goals.
