s the planet heats up and climate patterns grow increasingly erratic, the transition to green energy is no longer a choice. It is an urgent necessity. But change is rarely easy, especially when the stakes are high and the scale is vast.
For over a century, the global economy has been powered by coal, oil and gas. Replacing this deeply entrenched dependency with renewable energy is one of the most complex challenges of our time. It demands enormous financial investment and carries far-reaching social, economic and political consequences.
In Indonesia, these questions feel especially urgent. The government ratified the Paris Agreement through Law No. 16/2016, yet progress has remained painfully slow. Policy inertia, financial hurdles and deep-rooted structural barriers continue to stand in the way of meaningful reform.
A newly launched publication, Siapa Bayar Apa untuk Transisi Hijau? (Who pays what for the green transition?), brings this dilemma into sharp focus. Released recently in Jakarta, the 246-page book zeroes in on a critical question: Who will actually pay for Indonesia’s shift to renewable energy?
Initiated by Climate Policy Initiative (CPI) Indonesia, the book brings together 10 contributors with expertise in environmental policy, banking and development economics. At the helm of the editorial team are Adrian TP Panggabean and Albertus P. Siagian, economists whose careers have long spanned the worlds of finance and public policy.
Rather than offering quick fixes, the book dives deep, unpacking one of the most urgent and complicated challenges facing Indonesia today.
