INTRODUCTION
Renewable EnergyโAccelerated Transition (RE-ACT)
To support the Government of Indonesia (GOI) in achieving its renewable energy and net-zero emission targets, the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) is implementing the โRenewable EnergyโAccelerated Transitionโ (RE-ACT) project in Indonesia. The RE-ACT project, which commenced in October 2021 and spans five years, is funded by the Government of New Zealand.
