Renewable energy, often known as (“EBT”) is currently a very hot topic in discussions among stakeholders from numerous industries.

In his presentation, Reynaldi Hermansjah stated that IIF has extensive expertise financing renewable energy projects. “We have experience supporting and encouraging renewable energy for infrastructure development.” Throughout Indonesia, we have funded a wide range of project areas. “In total, 17 projects have been operational and have contributed to the distribution of electric power to the community,” Reynaldi explained.

Collaboration and synergy among stakeholders is critical in overcoming implementation issues and securing finance for renewable energy, infrastructure projects. This collaboration is expected to expand the accessibility to finance, optimize resource usage, increase efficiency, and accelerate financial investment in the renewable energy sector in Indonesia.
