As part of CPD’s work with the Energy Transition Policy Development (ETP) Forum in Indonesia, we recently joined our partners in Jakarta to host a media briefing on our key recommendations for the new Prabowo government as it navigates Indonesia’s energy transition.
Recommendations included reforms to Indonesia’s energy subsidies and improving access to renewable energy, raising environmental standards and strengthening institutional arrangements, and ensuring that the benefits of the energy transition reach remote and vulnerable communities.
The briefing and recommendations garnered considerable media interest across Indonesia, with coverage in leading outlets such as Kompas, Tempo, and Liputan6.
As the world’s two largest coal producers, Australia and Indonesia face shared challenges in the energy transition. There is immense opportunity for the two countries to work together and share expertise and lessons on effective energy transition. CPD will continue to work with our partners in the ETP Forum to promote a people-centred just transition in both nations.
