Indonesia targets 30 GW solar buildout in 2026 while retiring 13 GW of diesel

President Prabowo Subianto framed the 30 GW solar target and 13 GW diesel retirement as part of Indonesia’s push for energy self-reliance. The scale is material because diesel replacement in islands and remote grids can reduce fuel imports while creating demand for solar, batteries and grid integration. Execution will depend on procurement, financing and the pace at which projects can move from targets to signed power-purchase agreements.
