TEB.ID: Collaboration for a Just Energy Transition

 

The Just Energy Transition Indonesia Platform (TEB.ID) is an information hub that provides in-depth insights into just energy transition issues in Indonesia.

Launched in January 2024, TEB.ID was created to meet the ever-evolving need for information as public attention to the issue of a just energy transition continues to grow.

The platform organizes just energy transition issues into five main focus areas:

 

1. Policy: Focuses on providing information on government laws, policies, and regulations, including international financing initiatives that support a just energy transition, such as the Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP).
2. Workers’ Rights: Focuses on protecting workers’ rights in the energy sector, including access to decent work, social protection, reskilling and upskilling opportunities, and efforts to ensure that the energy transition does not result in job losses or deteriorating working conditions.
3. Finance: Financing is one of the most critical aspects of a just energy transition. TEB.ID explores topics such as financing the early retirement of coal-fired power plants, investing in renewable energy generation and grid infrastructure, and the role of public and private investment in accelerating a just energy transition.
4. Community: The opportunities and challenges of a just energy transition for directly-affected communities (the general public, indigenous peoples, vulnerable groups, etc.) will be among TEB.ID’s key focuses, using the GEDSI (Gender, Disability, and Social Inclusion) approach.
5. Transition Minerals: Discussions surrounding transition minerals are intensifying due to the development of renewable energy technologies and electric vehicles. TEB.ID will focus on how transition minerals can be managed in a fair and sustainable manner.
