Germany Ready to Inject Clean Energy Investment in Indonesia

Germany is ready to expand its investments in Indonesia's renewable energy sector, offering comprehensive support that includes technology, grid infrastructure, energy storage solutions, and project financing. This commitment comes as Indonesia seeks to strengthen its energy security and reduce its reliance on fossil fuels.

We are convinced that Indonesia's energy transition offers enormous potential for a reliable, long-term partnership, a partnership that benefits Indonesia and Germany.

German Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development, Reem Alabali Radovan, expressed confidence in Indonesia's energy transition, stating it offers immense potential for a reliable, long-term partnership beneficial to both nations. "We are convinced that Indonesia's energy transition offers enormous potential for a reliable, long-term partnership, a partnership that benefits Indonesia and Germany," Radovan said at the Indonesia Sustainable Energy Week 2026.

Radovan noted that Indonesia's growing dependence on imported fossil fuels makes its energy system vulnerable to geopolitical disruptions, citing the closure of the Strait of Hormuz as an example. She welcomed Indonesia's plans to develop renewable energy, including a 100-gigawatt solar power plant program, viewing it as a move towards strengthening energy sovereignty and promoting climate action.

Our energy system is vulnerable when it is too dependent on imported fossil fuels.

Germany is prepared to share its expertise through companies specializing in renewable energy, from large-scale infrastructure and decentralized solutions to grid integration and storage. The German government also offers consultation for its companies entering the Indonesian market, facilitating connections with business partners and financing institutions. Simultaneously, Germany supports Indonesian partners in creating a conducive regulatory environment for private investment, emphasizing transparent and fair procurement processes. Germany is a co-lead, alongside Japan, in the Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP) for Indonesia, through which approximately $20 billion has been mobilized to support the country's energy transition.
