Program Overview
WRI Indonesia’s energy program works to advance reliable, clean energy and reduce carbon emissions while balancing the need for economic advancement. WRI Indonesia believes that sustainable development highlights the need for integrated approaches to finding solutions aligned with the challenge of achieving economic, social, and environmental goals that are often interlinked. Therefore, the energy program aims to work across disciplines with the cities team, climate team, and the ocean to combine low-carbon technology systems, quantitative models, and other policy-making decision tools to achieve and support critical national initiatives in Indonesia, such as the acceleration of the achievement of national renewable energy targets and net zero ambition.
 
WRI Indonesia is enhancing its reputation as a thought leader in industrial decarbonization. Supporting Indonesia’s pledge to Net Zero Emissions, we seek to advance private sector contribution towards net zero at any business scale. With our partners in KADIN Net Zero Hub and the Ministry of Industry, we instill the SBTi framework through training and consultations with companies, then facilitate them to develop and implement the decarbonization strategy. Moreover, we also attempt to boost sector-wide decarbonization and competitiveness enhancement through roadmap and policies, including carbon economic value, green industrial development, and carbon abatement governance. 
 
Specifically in the energy sector, one of our flagship initiatives is the Clean Energy Investment Accelerator (CEIA). CEIA is an innovative public-private partnership initiative that advances policy and financing frameworks to meet the clean energy needs of industrial energy consumers. As the largest energy consumer group, the industrial sectors could use their buying power to drive energy transition through policy advocacy, business models, and technology adoption. The CEIA focuses on critical global emerging markets, including Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Colombia, and Mexico. CEIA Indonesia established a Working Group consisting of large energy buyers from industrial and commercial sectors and has been holding a series of dialogues to identify and refine areas for public-private collaboration and advance optimal solutions for corporate procurement of renewable energy.
 
Over the years, WRI Indonesia has focused extensively on the development of green electricity through a productive partnership with Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) that has resulted in two new green electricity product options: Renewable Energy Certificate (REC) and Green Energy as A Service (GEAS). In the next five years, we are advancing our expertise in decarbonization within the manufacturing industries (e.g., F&B, chemical, iron & steel, etc.). WRI Indonesia aims to build our institutional knowledge of clean heat solutions and energy efficiency measures to strengthen our impact on industry decarbonization issues. By focusing on several industrial subsectors, we will gain an in-depth understanding of each sector’s challenges, opportunities, and pathways to maximize emission reduction from energy use.
