Based on IESR 2018 data, although with a solar power potential of 2000 GW and the target of installing solar panels in PP No. 79 in 2014 is 6.5 GWp in 2025, Indonesia is still holding on to 0.15 GWp of installed Solar PV capacity. This means that Indonesia still has a long way to…

By 2050, coal’s share of the energy mix will fall to 38%, while new and renewable energy will go from 16% in 2019 to 43% in 2050. But it’s far from being ambitious, as 38% coal is still significant and not in line with the government’s goal to phase out coal completely by 2055, according…

A number of academics believe that the implementation of solar PV can encourage the fulfillment of the New Renewable Energy mix target of 23% by 2025. The results of the IESR study even show that 1 GWp from Rooftop Solar Power Plants can absorb up to 30 thousand workers in the green job sector. The…

The Indonesian government has officially sent an NDC bar document to the United Nations (UN) which refers to reducing carbon emissions by 2030 to reduce the earth's temperature not to rise above 1.5 C compared to the pre-industrial period of 1800-1850. Read more Dunia Energi

In order to support the plan to reduce the impact of climate change due to the increase in greenhouse gases (GHG) as stated in the Paris Agreement, the East Java Provincial Government has formed a regional regulation on the general regional energy plan (RUED). According to Fabby, energy conversion from fossil to renewable is very…

Executive Director of the Institute for Essential Services Reform (IESR) Fabby Tumiwa said Indonesia needs at least 14 gigawatts so that the 23 percent target can be achieved within four years. According to him, of all the technology available in Indonesia, only solar power plants can be developed quickly starting from a small scale by…

The energy transition will only become a discourse if the strategy and roadmap are not included in the National Mid-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) and Government Work Plan (RKP) in the coming year. According to Fabby, Executive Director of the Institute for Essential Services Reform, Indonesia needs to transform its green economy to be able to…

An energy researcher and a coal association chair have predicted that the country’s coal exports will start to decline in the 2030s, largely because the commodity’s biggest buyers, China and India, plan to undergo major transitions to cleaner energy. Fabby said during an online discussion on Aug.26 that the two countries recently announced transition plans…

According to Fabby Tumiwa, Executive Director of IESR, the decline in coal demand will have a major impact on Indonesia as one of the largest coal producers in the world. The world trend that is starting to focus on renewable energy will result in a decrease in the amount of demand for coal. Read more Katadata
