Project volume
69.7 Mio EUR
Location
Sulawesi, Papua
Type of funding
Concessional Loan
Partner
Directorate General for New and Renewable Energy (EBTKE), Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources
The aim of the project is to improve the climate and environment-friendly power supply in remote regions of Indonesia
Short Description
Under the “1000 Islands – Rural Electrification by Renewable Energies Phase II”, the state electricity supplier and project promoter PLN will be supported in expanding the renewable energies to meet the electricity demand in remote regions of Sulawesi and Papua. The measure includes the financing of the construction and expansion of four small hydropower plants and is intended to contribute to a climate and environmental improvement of electricity supply and social and economic development in remote regions of Indonesia.
Objective
By promoting renewable energies, the project on reducing greenhouse gas emissions contributes to achieving the Federal Government’s development policy goals in the core area of “Climate and Energy, Just Transition” between the ECB and Indonesia. Furthermore, the project contributes to the achievement of the RE expansion goals that the Indonesian Government has set itself as part of the Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP) of 44% on-grid RE until 2030. The measure is also intended to make a positive contribution to the sustainable development of rural regions.
State of Implementation
The four small Hydropower Plants Lapai, Riorita, Kalibumi and Watunohu, three located in Sulawesi and one in Papua, are currently in the implementation phase. The detailed designs for each HPP are under preparation and the project is expected to be completed in 2027.

Tools
SEA Information Platform for the Energy Transition (SIPET)
The Southeast Asia Information Platform for Energy Transition (SIPET) is a one-stop platform for information and knowledge exchange about the energy transition in the region. SIPET aims to be a central launch pad for energy transition stake holders to facilitate dialogue and promote coordination in the Southeast Asia power sector.
Bio DB
BioDB is a useful website for providing general information, encouraging discussion and conversation on the topic of bioenergy from agro-industrial waste. The data and information presented were collected by the Strategic Exploration of Economic Mitigation Potentials through Renewables (ExploRE) project, a project funded by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU), Federal Republic of Germany, in collaboration with the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) of the Republic of Indonesia, and implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ)
IKI JET
The global energy transition away from coal to renewable energy is threatening local livelihoods, economic activities and jobs, but also holding opportunities for sustainable, low carbon development. The project aims at supporting key stakeholder of coal regions to plan for and implement regional just energy transition pathways away from coal and towards a low-carbon energy system. Focusing on the regional economic transformations, the project works with government, industry, unions, communities, civil society, and academia. It supports interregional peer-to-peer exchange, learning, and policy dialogue in an international network and information sharing via a knowledge hub. In Indonesia, it supports the development of specific transition plans in two coal regions. In Colombia, it supports the development of the concept and framework for energy communities and the implementation of just and inclusive energy communities in César and la Guajira.
CASE for Southeast Asia
The “CASE for Southeast Asia” website is dedicated to the promotion of clean, affordable, and secure energy transitions across Southeast Asia. The website focuses on the provision of resources, the conducting of research, and the facilitation of collaborative projects in countries such as Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, and Vietnam, with the aim of supporting energy transition efforts. The platform highlights the challenges and opportunities in the region’s energy sector, while sharing knowledge, best practices, and policy recommendations aimed at advancing the transition to renewable energy and sustainable development
