History

Working Group on Power Sector Restructuring (WGPSR) is the forerunner of IESR. WGPSR advocated for electricity sector reform in Indonesia after the financial crisis in 1998 and during the program of structural changes carried out by the Indonesian government with the support of the IMF and multilateral development banks. After that, WGPSR was highly involved in advocating policies and regulations on electricity tariffs, subsidies, and the electricity sector’s management.

This working group was the first civil society organization to encourage public participation in the formulation of policies and decisions in the Indonesian electricity sector, which was not sufficiently transparent at that time. Based on the results of an external evaluation conducted in 2006, WGPSR recommended not only to work in the electricity sector but also to continue working on broader energy issues and their impacts on the environment.

In 2007, WGPSR was officially registered as a new organization called the Institute for Essential Services Reform.
