Seoul, South Korea, December 11, 2025 – The Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI), with support from the Ministry of Climate, Energy, and Environment of Korea (MCEE), is facilitating a five-day capacity-building benchmark tour for Indonesian Government partners to the Republic of Korea (ROK). The visit is part of the Piloting Electric Vehicle Systems and Developing a Green Transportation Investment Roadmap Project in Bali (Bali E-mobility Project). 

According to the Institute for Essential Services Reform (IESR), the transportation sector contributes approximately 27% of Indonesia’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Moreover, without swift action, emissions are projected to rise to 53% above 2015 levels by 2030, according to IESR’s 2020 Climate Transparency Report.  In Bali, GHG emissions from the transportation sector account for 43% of total emissions.  

Developing the electric vehicle ecosystem is one of the energy transition policy strategies in supporting the achievement of the 70% target by 2045 and boosting Indonesia’s sustainable economic growth, according to Law Number 59 of 2024 on the National Long-Term Development Plan (RPJPN) 2025-2045. “We hope to gain insights from this visit to support Indonesia’s and Bali Province’s ongoing efforts to strengthen national and local electric vehicle (EV) policies, accelerate the development of a sustainable EV ecosystem, and advance the decarbonization of its public transportation sector. We are looking forward to learning the best practices from the Republic of Korea,” said Bali Governor Wayan Koster during the visit. 

Together with the delegation, the Bali Governor visited GGGI Headquarters and held a high-level meeting with Mrs. Eunhae Jeong, Director General for International Affairs of the Ministry of Climate, Energy, and Environment. The technical program also includes a visit to the Chaevi Center, which is the leading EV-charger company in Korea, the Hyundai Jeonju Factory to observe the EV bus manufacturing process, the Jeonju City Traffic Information Center to examine the local-level transportation management, and the Seoul Metropolitan Government’s TOPIS facility to learn about the city‐level intelligent transportation system.  

The Bali E-Mobility Project aims to support the Government of Indonesia’s strategic priorities to stimulate investments to accelerate sustainable and green transportation by piloting electric buses and charging infrastructure for public transportation in one of main Provinces in Indonesia. The Project is funded by MCEE Korea and supported in Indonesia by the Ministry of National Development Planning (Bappenas), the Ministry of Transportation, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, and the Bali Provincial Government.
