Our Work
Accelerating the Transition to Clean Energy
Although Indonesia has begun to make strides in adopting clean energy, it still trails behind key Asian economies like China, India, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines in establishing the regulatory and market incentives vital for attracting investment in large-scale clean energy projects. Traction Energy Asia plays a crucial role in this landscape by presenting compelling, evidence-based arguments to Indonesia’s policymakers and business leaders, highlighting the urgent need for a strong policy framework driven by political will. Our work is instrumental in unlocking Indonesia’s vast clean energy potential, which is essential for sustainable growth and environmental stewardship across the region.
Embedding Low-Carbon Development
In the context of the global drive to address the Triple Planetary Crisis—climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution—Traction Energy Asia is committed to leading the charge in evidence-based development planning for Indonesia’s low-carbon future. We aim to significantly strengthen economic tools and data systems to enhance impact analysis and support informed decision-making across all levels of governance. By leveraging cutting-edge research, we will provide policymakers with the insights needed to align national and regional development plans with sustainable growth objectives.
Shifting the narratives around energy and economic growth
To ensure the success of Indonesia’s low-carbon transition, it is imperative to build a strong social mandate that supports clean energy and sustainable development. Traction Energy Asia will focus on raising public awareness and engaging key influencers, including academics, journalists, and community leaders, to shift the narrative around energy and economic growth. By fostering a broader understanding of the benefits of clean energy and low-carbon growth, we aim to galvanize public support, thereby creating a powerful social mandate that demands and drives policy change.
