ASIATODAY.ID, ABU DHABI – Masdar Clean Energy, the United Arab Emirates’ leading renewable energy company, has reaffirmed its commitment to expand clean energy investments in Indonesia, aligning with the Indonesian government’s push to accelerate the national energy transition.
The commitment was conveyed by Masdar Chief Operating Officer Abdulaziz Alobaidli during a meeting with Indonesian Vice Speaker of the People’s Consultative Assembly (MPR), Eddy Soeparno, at Masdar’s headquarters in Masdar City, Abu Dhabi, on Sunday, December 28, 2025.
The meeting was also attended by Masdar Head of Development and Investment Fatimah Al Suwaidi, as well as Indonesia’s Ambassador to the United Arab Emirates, Judha Nugraha, who accompanied Eddy Soeparno.
Alobaidli expressed his appreciation for the visit and emphasized Masdar’s long-term commitment to Indonesia’s renewable energy sector.
“Masdar’s investment in the Cirata Floating Solar Power Plant has been progressing very well. Based on this positive experience, we are committed to expanding our renewable energy investments in Indonesia. We are also aware of President Prabowo’s commitment to increasing Indonesia’s renewable energy capacity to 10 gigawatts (GW),” Alobaidli said.
Masdar also highlighted the importance of investment-friendly regulations to support the rapid development of renewable energy projects across Indonesia.
“We hope to collaborate closely with Vice Speaker Eddy Soeparno to ensure that Indonesia’s renewable energy mix continues to grow and that the energy transition process can be accelerated,” he added.
Indonesia Strengthens Commitment to Energy Transition
Responding to Masdar’s plans, Eddy Soeparno welcomed the company’s strong interest in expanding renewable energy capacity in Indonesia, particularly its ambition to reach up to 10 GW.
“Under the leadership of President Prabowo, Indonesia is accelerating its transition toward renewable energy as part of a broader effort to achieve energy sovereignty while ensuring a clean and healthy environment,” Eddy said.
Eddy also affirmed the MPR’s readiness to facilitate investment through supportive policies and legislation.
“The MPR serves as a meeting point and a policy enabler for all stakeholders, ensuring that renewable energy regulations and policy implementation are effective, swift, and open to investment,” he explained.
Eddy noted that the legislature is currently prioritizing the passage of several key bills, including the New and Renewable Energy Bill, the Electricity Bill, and the Climate Change Management Bill.
“The Climate Change Management Bill is particularly urgent, as the impacts of climate change are already evident. Through this legislation, we hope to further accelerate Indonesia’s transition toward clean energy,” he concluded.
With stronger regulatory support and expanding international partnerships such as with Masdar, Indonesia is positioning itself as a key hub for renewable energy development in Southeast Asia. (AT Network)
