Pursuing 6 Percent Growth by 2027, Government Spurred Green Energy and Digitalization

The acceleration of the energy transition is also supported by the construction of a 47,758 circuit-kilometre transmission network. This infrastructure is directed to support the reliability of electricity supply.

In terms of equitable access, the Village Electricity program is targeted to reach 4,390 locations by 2026. The Coordinating Ministry for the Economy said the program will reach 1,505 locations by 2025.

Mineral Downstreaming Becomes an Opportunity for Green Industry

The government also sees opportunities for developing a green economy through downstream mineral resources, including nickel, tin, bauxite and copper. The use of clean energy in mineral processing is expected to increase added value while supporting the energy transition.

One of the sectors of concern is the electric vehicle ecosystem. According to the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs, the development of this sector has the potential to provide up to 67-fold added value, with global demand projected to reach US$5.91 trillion by 2045.

Apart from critical minerals, the potential of silica sand as raw material for solar panels is considered to strengthen Indonesia's position in the global supply chain.

The Coordinating Ministry for the Economy said this potential attracted partnership interest from the European Union, the United States and Canada for the development of energy transition technology and diversification of critical mineral supply chains.
