In order to encourage and accelerate the achievement of the renewable energy mix targets in Indonesia as well as to create a better business environment from the user side, especially for energy supply companies that already have new renewable energy targets, the Energy Working Group held a meeting with Clean Energy Investment Accelerator (CEIA). The Meeting, which was held on 6 September 2021, was intended to showcase the CEIA Corporate Buyers initiative in advancing the procurement of new and renewable energy in Indonesia.

The Meeting was led by Thomas Wagner (Head of the Energy Working Group) and was attended by speakers from CEIA Indonesia (represented by Gina Lisdiani, Nadhilah and Dessy Farhan) who shared information about the CEIA Corporate Buyers Working Group. Moreover, to gain more insight on this topic, the Group also invited representatives of the CEIA Corporate Buyers Working Group, Ratih Anggraeni (Head of Climate and Water Stewardship, Danone) and Devina S. Raditya (Environment & Sustainability Domain Leader – EAJP & IMEA Global Supply Chain, Schneider Electric) to share their experience in collaborating with CEIA.

Aseries of meetings between the Chemical Working Group leaders with the Board Patron were conducted in September 2021 to discuss plans for upcoming activities. These meetings also serve to align the voice and visibility of the Chemical Working Group and how to carry out an advocacy strategy going forward. With the various topics and regulatory dynamics deemed important for the chemical sector, it is hoped that the EuroCham Chemical Working Group can strengthen the voice of European companies in Indonesia for a better investment climate. At the same time, it was also proposed that an upcoming webinar with several proposed topics be planned, specifiying among others the challenges and opportunities for the chemical sector in Indonesia.
