The study, “Accelerating the Regional Energy Transition: Map of Clean Energy Technology (Cleantech) Needs and Opportunities in 4 Provinces,” shows that demand for clean energy technology (cleantech) at the provincial level is no longer in its infancy. In West Java, East Java, Bali, and the Special Region of Yogyakarta, market demand is beginning to take shape in the electricity, transportation, and industrial and construction sectors. However, the pace of market formation has not been fully matched by regional policy readiness, implementation capacity, and financing mechanisms that can translate potential demand into large-scale adoption.

The study’s key findings illustrate that the challenges of cleantech development lie not only in the technology or market interest, but also in the ability of regional policies to transform potential demand into consistent, measurable, and executable market signals. Although various policy instruments are available, ranging from regional energy planning documents, electric vehicle policies, green building regulations, to low-carbon development agendas, This means that some instruments still require strengthening at the operational level, particularly in terms of implementation targets, implementation mechanisms, and program sustainability. Consequently, the emerging cleantech market has not yet fully consolidated to optimally attract sustainable investment, strengthen local supply chains, and create green jobs.
