On 13 August 2025, during the Kickoff Meeting and Media Briefing of the Indonesia International Sustainability Forum (ISF) 2025 in South Jakarta, the Deputy for Investment Promotion at the Ministry of Investment and Downstream Industry/Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM), Nurul Ichwan, stated that the Indonesian government aims to create a green business ecosystem that benefits the economy, society and environmentally sustainable. Indonesia is strengthening its position as a green investment destination by prioritising energy transition and carbon emission reduction. As part of this commitment, the government has developed strategies, regulatory frameworks, incentives, and investment instruments to attract businesses focused on sustainable economics. This initiative is driven by a growing recognition of global investment trends, shifting towards environmentally sustainable and low-emission projects, in line with achieving net zero emission targets.
There are five government strategies designed to attract green investment. Firstly, the establishment of Indonesia as a centre for carbon capture, storage, and utilisation, supported by regulations and laws that facilitate its implementation. Secondly, the promotion of the energy transition through gas and clean technology, by encouraging a shift from coal to natural gas. Thirdly, leveraging Danantara's capacity to partner with both domestic and foreign investors. Fourthly, the integration of programmes and simplification of permits to ensure that existing energy and resources are directed towards concrete projects with significant impact. Lastly, incentives are being developed to attract green investors, with regulations currently in the final stages of finalising incentive schemes for businesses contributing to emission reduction and energy transmission.
