In response to a request from the Directorate General of New, Renewable Energy, and Energy Conservation (DG-NREEC) of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources UNDP and UNDESA are supporting the Government of Indonesia in adopting the CLEWs framework to support planning and policy formulation. The aim of the analysis is to review the National Energy Policy (RUEN) and analyze strategies to achieve the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) for emission reductions.
To this end, a project was set in place to engage in initial model development and deliver the first national training workshop, which took place from 29 of September to 2 of October, in the Bell Swiss Hotel in Bogor Indonesia.
The 4-day workshop on CLEWs of Indonesia was the first of a set of three workshops planned to fully transfer the model and the capacities in its use to inform sustainable development and energy policy. The workshop had the participation of approximately 25 government officials, mainly from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, and had the support of the UNDP-CO and the UNDP Regional Hub in Bangkok. Policy scenarios were discussed with officials from the Directorate of New and Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation with feedback from the trainees participating in CLEWs. Next steps were defined to follow up on data requirements for the model and the implementation of the next workshop.
