This policy brief focuses on energy transition policies and the New and Renewable Energy (EBT) roadmap as set out in Articles 6 and 7 of the EBT Bill. It aims to examine policy issues, assess the state of the national electricity sector, and propose improvements to EBT policies and the roadmap.
The study finds that the energy transition and EBT roadmap do not yet promote energy democracy, are not integrated with national development planning, and are not aligned with RUEN and RUED. In addition, the stages, indicators, and energy management arrangements for replacing non-renewable energy remain unclear.
The EBT Bill does not clearly define the scope of the EBT roadmap, and its energy transition plans remain focused on coal, leaving the strategic EBT agenda influenced by the coal oligarchy.
This policy brief focuses on energy transition policies and the New and Renewable Energy (EBT) roadmap as outlined in Articles 6 and 7 of the EBT Bill, aiming to examine policy issues, evaluate the national electricity sector, and propose improvements for the EBT roadmap and transition policies.
The study found that the energy transition and New and Renewable Energy (EBT) roadmap have not promoted energy democracy, are not integrated with national development planning, and are misaligned with the National Energy General Plan (RUEN) and Regional Energy General Plans (RUED). Furthermore, the bill lacks clear regulations on stages, indicators, and energy management to replace non-renewable sources.
The EBT Bill does not clearly define the scope of the New and Renewable Energy (EBT) roadmap, and its energy transition plans remain focused on coal, meaning the strategic EBT agenda is still heavily influenced by coal industry interests.
