Expert(s) to support West Nusa Tenggara Province’s 100% RE Roadmap Development

 About the 100% Renewables Cities and Regions Roadmap Project

The 100% Renewables Cities and Regions Roadmap (100% RE) is an international project implemented by ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability with support from the International Climate Initiative (IKI) of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, and Nuclear Safety (BMU).

The 100% RE is the first global initiative that aims to accelerate the utilization of renewable energy by raising local awareness on renewable energy sources, showcasing how local and national governments can create coordinated enabling frameworks and policies, exploring access to public and private sector finance, and building local renewable energy projects addressing electricity and heating and cooling. ICLEI works together with local and regional governments from Argentina, Kenya, and Indonesia to develop community-wide 100% renewable energy (RE) strategies.

ICLEI Southeast Asia through its Indonesia Office has committed to assisting the Government of West Nusa Tenggara (WNT) Province, Mataram City, and Sumbawa Regency within this project’s framework in implementing the 100% RE Project. The project will foster multilevel governance, and put collaboration at the heart of the sustainable energy transition in the region. This approach will allow cities and regions to not only unlock one of the largest potential solutions for GHG emission reduction, but also drive sustainable growth and local job creation, as well as various social benefits.

Scope of Work

The expert is expected to assist the development of 100% RE Roadmap for West Nusa Tenggara Province. The expert can work remotely without needing to be stationed at ICLEI Indonesia office (Yayasan ICLEI Indonesia) located in DKI Jakarta, Indonesia, but physical presence during fieldworks and if possible, some of the consultations, in the project cities/regions shall be planned.” She/he shall work closely with the relevant Project Officer during the roadmap development process.
