Abstract

Abstract: Renewable Energy will play a more critical role in meeting future energy needs. Therefore, it is necessary to have policies and strategies at the national and regional levels so that the development of renewable energy can increase and develop. Unfortunately, Indonesia does not have a specific policy that covers the development of renewable energy until now. This study aims to see the integration of central and regional policies by targeting the renewable energy mix as a connecting link. This research was conducted using the document analysis method. The study results indicate that the national level's legal instruments and policies for renewable Energy are inadequate. The instrument is still fragmented into several policies with a minimal portion and legal standing that is not strong enough. We propose the need for policies at the national level that specifically regulate renewable Energy and prepare derivative regulations for the law to have an integrated policy. In addition, local governments must also integrate their regional regulations with existing policy instruments at the national level. Good integration of national and regional policies is expected to accelerate renewable energy development in Indonesia, and the targets are not just ambitions written on paper.
