BACKGROUND
In March 2023, Indonesian Government and Singaporean Government signed a memorandum of understanding on green corridor project to enable cross-border electricity trade. The MOU will facilitate Indonesia and Singapore to establish an institutional cooperation framework to facilitate developing, financing and manufacturing needed for renewable energy projects. The Energy Market Authority of Singapore (EMA) has awarded conditional licenses to five companies in charge of Indonesia-based projects to import a total of two gigawatts (GW) of low-carbon electricity to Singapore.
EVENT DESCRIPTION
In view of the above, the Sustainable Energy Association of Singapore (SEAS) and Indonesia Solar Energy Research Centre (ISEREC) can collaborate to discuss on barriers and challenges to deploying solar energy as a strategy to accelerate clean energy transition for Indonesia. By organizing a half-day roundtable on 2 October, we will discuss the technical, regulatory and financial barriers for smooth deployment. The workshop will be followed by a business matching for Indonesian and Singaporean companies
EVENT OBJECTIVE
The collaboration will contribute to unlocking the key barriers by:
- Bringing ISEREC & SEAS members together for: networking, identifying of joint-pain points & opportunities, and presenting as a unified voice to key policy-makers – highlighting the need and benefits of an enabling policy & regulatory environment and drawing out specific recommendations that if implemented would very quickly translate to financial flows and other development benefits for the nation.
- Strengthening ISEREC’s advocacy work in Indonesia in encouraging better policy and regulatory frameworks, including timely and much needed industry establishment.
- Showcase inter-country collaboration as one of strategic examples for cementing regional leadership.
- Building a pipeline of investment-ready projects and its subsequent financing needs.
