The report analyzes five alternative project finance models—leasing, joint ventures, PPPs, InvITs, and CIS-DINFRA—to help Indonesia's state-owned utility PLN fund a USD 24 billion transmission expansion target for 2025–2034. It argues that shifting from corporate to project finance can reduce balance sheet pressure and attract private capital, provided that key policy enablers are implemented, including dedicated transmission fees, off-balance sheet accounting treatment, and government fiscal support.

This report by the Climate Policy Initiative proposes a framework for quantifying investment needs to ensure Indonesia's energy transition is equitable, using the early retirement of the Cirebon 1 coal-fired power plant as a case study.

This 2010 report examines food security in Indonesia, arguing that the country's focus on food self-sufficiency (Swasembada Pangan) has neglected the critical issue of food access. While national food supplies were adequate during the 2007/08 global food crisis, poor infrastructure and low incomes led to severe food insecurity in remote regions, particularly in East Nusa Tenggara, West Nusa Tenggara, and the Special Region of Yogyakarta. The report recommends shifting policy toward improving food access, investing in transportation infrastructure, and promoting food diversification.
