The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is an international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide operations. Its corporate objective is to improve people’s living conditions on a sustainable basis. GIZ has been working in Indonesia since 1975 on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
In Indonesia,
GIZ is implementing various energy projects under the umbrella of the Energy
Program Indonesia/ASEAN. These projects are commissioned by
mainly the German government, represented by the German Federal Ministry for
Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the International Climate
Initiative, represented by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and
Climate Action (BMWK).
SETI aims to support Indonesia’s energy transition
through increasing the share of renewable energy and improving energy
efficiency of key industries as well as in the built environment. It aims to
support decarbonisation of the energy sector by working with the private sector
and on city level to develop concrete technology solutions, while complementing
this work through advisory work on sustainable energy policy making and
development of financial instruments. SETI is implemented through a consortium
of Indonesian and international (implementing) partners.
Anchored with the Direktorat Jenderal Energi Baru
Terbarukan dan Konservasi Energi (DJ EBTKE) under the Ministry of Energy and
Mineral Resources (MEMR), SETI works with different energy related political
partners, including Bappenas, the Ministry of Finance, PLN, to name a few.
