PTB together with the Directorate for New and Renewable Energies and Energy Conservation (EBTKE) is implementing the project “Strengthening Quality Infrastructure for the Photovoltaic (PV) Sector in Indonesia”. The objective of the project is to improve quality assurance in the PV sector to support new and existing PV systems in Indonesia in line with international good practice.

To increase the flexibility and sustainability of the project, additional project staff based in Indonesia is required to support the implementation. The additional staff is expected to have a qualified PV background and preferably knowledge of quality infrastructure to support the project in technical matters.
