Indonesia’s energy transition - and how Danish experiences can contribute
Indonesia is experiencing strong economic growth, which is driving a rising demand for energy. Meeting this demand in a sustainable way requires making use of the country’s large renewable energy potential, as Indonesia has abundant solar and onshore wind resources.
At the same time, Indonesia is becoming increasingly ambitious in its green energy transition and plans a significant expansion of both solar and onshore wind power over the coming decade. Danish expertise can contribute valuable insights by sharing best-practice examples from Denmark’s own energy transition and by supporting the design of efficient and sustainable transition measures.
Cooperation between Danish and Indonesian authorities
Denmark and Indonesia have been working together on the green energy transition since 2015. The partnership is supported by the Danish Embassy in Jakarta, which helps coordinate activities and maintain close dialogue with Indonesian partners.
Through cooperation across different levels of the Indonesian government, the partnership enables both broad and targeted dialogue. Key Indonesian partners include the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, the National Energy Council, the state-owned electricity company PLN, and regional energy planning offices.
