Indonesia’s ambition to develop 100 GW of solar power marks a major milestone in the country’s energy transition. However, translating this vision into reality requires more than ambitious targets. It demands a regulatory environment that can unlock investment, strengthen institutions, and accelerate project implementation.
In this report, CELIOS examines why the first 17 GW deployment phase will be the defining test of Indonesia’s renewable energy transition. The study identifies key regulatory and institutional bottlenecks across renewable power generation, transmission infrastructure, and battery energy storage systems (BESS), while offering a comprehensive roadmap to improve investment certainty and project bankability. It also explores how Indonesia can leverage partnerships with the International Partners Group (IPG), G7 countries, China, and MENA countries, alongside strategic financing mechanisms such as Danantara, to accelerate renewable energy deployment.
Drawing on policy analysis and international best practices, the report provides actionable recommendations to help transform Indonesia’s renewable energy ambition into implementation, supporting a more competitive, resilient, and sustainable energy future.
