        "summary": "The Indonesian Renewable Energy Society (METI) is advocating for accelerated policies to achieve the national target of 23% renewable energy mix, currently lagging at 13-14%, amid challenges like fossil fuel dominance and insufficient fiscal incentives. METI Secretary General Paul Butarbutar emphasised the need for regulatory clarity and reforms to the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) structure to attract the hundreds of billions of US dollars required for the energy transition by 2060. This push highlights METI's role as a key partner to the government in fostering a green economy and enhancing energy resilience in Indonesia.",

On the other hand, the investment needs to support the\nenergy transition are estimated to reach hundreds of billions of US\ndollars by 2060, so that regulatory certainty is a key prerequisite,\u201d\nsaid Paul, in a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) which discussed the Power\nPurchase Agreement (PPA) scheme or Electricity Purchase Agreement\n(PJBL).<\/p>\n<p>According to Paul, without accelerating the enactment of the EBET\nLaw, the target of 23 percent renewable energy mix is difficult to\nachieve.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough this forum, METI encourages the reform of the PPA\/PJBL\nstructure to be more bankable and transparent, as well as strengthening\ncross-sector collaboration between the government, PLN, business actors,\nand financial institutions,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>During the discussion, Paul conveyed that his party continues to play\na role as a strategic partner of the government in accelerating the\nimplementation of the transition to green energy and the economy in\nIndonesia.<\/p>",
