Measures
Increase the share of renewable energy in the electricity supply chain
Currently, half of Jakarta’s electricity supply is imported from the national grid which has 9.6 per cent share of renewable energy. The other half is generated within the city with 0.3 per cent share of renewables. There are several ways that can help the city increase the share of renewables, such as by renewable energy auction mechanism and the promotion of rooftop solar. Auctions can establish renewable energy supply contracts for large electricity users at competitive prices. The city has the potential to save a substantial amount of financial resources over the next 10 years by switching to renewable energy auction with a minimum of 51.6 per cent share of RE, which will also ensure the achievement of the emission reduction target.
