Consultant Services for Development of Guideline on Business Energy Transition
A. Background According to the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report (2022), the implementation of current pledges by national governments put the world on track for a 2.5 C warmer world by the end of the century. Greenhouse gas emissions must decline 45% by 2030 to limit global warming to 1.5 C in line with the long-term climate goals of the Paris Agreement. Business commitment to net-zero emissions has seen positive increases, but concrete decarbonization strategies and actions are necessary. Almost 60% of global GHG comes from the energy sector. Therefore, decarbonization in the energy sector is crucial. The renewable energy mix in Indonesia reached only 14.11% at the end of 2022, falling short of the national target of 23% by 2025. More ambitious actions are needed to change the current trajectory.
Based on current trends, significant barriers for companies to transition to renewable energy and energy efficiency include enabling regulations, access to financing, adequate skills and infrastructure, and access to innovation and technology. These barriers need to be addressed to enable companies to accelerate their transition.
Indonesia Business Council for Sustainable Development (IBCSD) is a CEO-led business association committed to supporting sustainable development and accelerating business decarbonization through energy transition. IBCSD plans to develop a guideline for increasing business capacity in decarbonization actions through an integrated energy solutions strategy, derived from WBCSD's Guidelines for An Integrated Energy Strategy and tailored to Indonesia's context.
B. Purpose and Objectives The purpose of this activity is to develop a guideline for increasing business capacity in decarbonization actions. The objectives are as follows:
- Utilizing WBCSD's Guidelines for An Integrated Energy Strategy adapted to Indonesia's context;
- Streamlining approaches and targets related to business decarbonization;
- Gaining input from relevant government institutions regarding the targets and direction of business decarbonization;
- Gaining input from businesses regarding their interests and trends in decarbonization.
C. Scope of Works The guidelines will consist of two modules:
- Module 1: Energy Efficiency
- Module 2: Decarbonizing Energy Sourcing
The consultant shall propose methodologies to deliver the outlined activities, including:
The consultant will develop a first draft based on a desk review of various materials, including:
- WBCSD's Guidelines for An Integrated Energy Strategy;
- Regulations and policies in Indonesia related to business decarbonization;
- References from global policies regarding business decarbonization from at least five countries, including two with similar contexts to Indonesia;
- Available papers and references in Indonesia from other institutions regarding business decarbonization.
After the preliminary draft, the consultant will conduct interviews or discussions with governmental stakeholders, including:
- Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR);
- Ministry of Environment and Forestry (MoEF);
- Ministry of National Planning (MoNP);
- PT PLN (Persero);
- Related companies.
The consultant may propose other stakeholders to maximize support in developing the guidelines.
Validation workshops will engage at least 20 companies for each module, selected from IBCSD members and other proposed companies.
