Between October 2024 and October 2025, Indonesia and China have strengthened their energy transition cooperation, reflecting a growing alignment in policy priorities for sustainable growth and green industrial transformation. The partnership has expanded beyond traditional trade and infrastructure toward renewable energy development, battery supply chains, electric vehicle production, and digital energy systems. Institutional and financial engagement has deepened, with Indonesia’s new sovereign wealth fund, Danantara, and major Chinese institutional investors assuming an increasingly active role in renewable energy, industrial park development, and critical mineral projects.
Parallel to these investments, structured policy dialogues on clean energy, human capital development, and joint research in sustainable technologies have advanced mutual learning and institutional capacity. This annual report, produced in the style of a policy institute assessment, evaluates the progress of Indonesia–China energy transition cooperation over the past year, highlighting emerging opportunities in industrial integration, innovative financing, and green technology exchange, and offering policy recommendations to enhance governance, transparency, and equitable investment outcomes.
