1. Presentation of Expertise France
Expertise France is the French agency for international technical cooperation and part of the Agence Française de Développement (AFD) Group. Expertise France designs and implements projects that sustainably strengthen public policies in developing and emerging countries. It operates in key development areas such as governance, health, education and environment and works alongside its partners to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Expertise France's job is to support, advise and train national and local authorities in the definition and implementation of quality public policies adapted to the needs of the population. Focusing on the transfer of dialogue between peers, our interventions aim to strengthen the capacities of partner countries. We contribute to the emergence of innovative solutions adapted to the local context by bringing together the best know-how.
Expertise France advises and supports partner institutions - central administrations, regional organisations, local authorities, civil society organisations, etc. - from the definition of their needs to the final evaluation of activities carried out.
2. Context and background of the project (based on AFD Action Document)
Indonesia has a vast renewable energy (RE) potential but is still heavily reliant on fossil fuels for its energy and power supply (more than 80% of energy and electricity mix). Renewable energy sources only account for 13% of the electricity mix, mainly through hydroelectricity and geothermal energy.
Nonetheless, Indonesia has strong climate ambitions in terms of reducing GHG emissions and developing RE (target of 23% RE in the energy and electricity mix by 2025 according to the 2014 National Energy Plan). During its presidency of the 2022 G20 summit, Indonesia has made energy transition one of its top priorities, and has committed to it by signing a Joint Statement of Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP) with several countries, including France. The objectives of this partnership have recently been updated in the CIPP (Comprehensive Investment Policy Plan) issued in November 2023, and consist in: (i) peaking of on-grid emission below 250MtCO2 by 2030; (ii) RE share of on-grid electricity mix of 44% in 2030; and (iii) power sector reaches net zero emissions by 2050.
The CIPP identified only 30% of the 62GW expected new builds to reach the 44% renewable energy objective of the JETP. In order to meet these crucial challenges, AFD - implementing the French commitment in the JETP - aims to mobilize 500 MEUR in the next 3-5 years under the framework of JETP. To accompany AFD’s operations in accelerating Indonesia’s just energy transition, AFD submitted an application titled “Indonesia Energy Transition Facility” (IETF) for EU Delegation Fund.
IETF aims at accelerating Indonesia’s just energy transition by contributing to the JETP policy dialogue, supporting the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR) public policies for the decarbonization of energy, building Energy State Owned Enterprises (SOE)’s capacities as well as preparing and implementing new renewable energy (RE) projects.
Expertise France (EF), is considering the implementation of the project and wants to assess beneficiaries and potential partners’ needs and capacities, in order to prepare adequate design options with the project. This mission is crucial to analyse gaps and design the project.
The Energy Expert will have a large experience and proven track record in just energy transition sector in transition countries (previous experience in countries of the project is preferable). She/he will also need to evidence an in-depth experience in renewable energy, energy efficiency, consumer protection, climate change and electricity market.
Expertise France will evaluate candidates according to the following criteria:
A. Education / qualification :
B. Professional experience :
C. Additional specific requirements:
