A number of speakers attended the webinar "Renewable Energy: Is Indonesia Prepared Without Fossil Energy" held by Kompas Daily with the Institute for Essential Services Reform (IESR), Tuesday (2/3/2021).

JAKARTA, KOMPAS – The political will of the government to develop renewable energy is important in order to achieve the targeted share in the national energy mix. This must be reflected in the policies on taxation or incentives. Public participation and the involvement of other stakeholders are also needed.

Until 2020, the share of renewable energy in Indonesia’s energy mix was still just 11.5 percent, or half the 23 percent target for 2025. Fossil fuel energy, especially coal, remained dominant with a 66.3 percent share, followed by natural gas and petroleum making up 20.47 percent.
