On February 27 2025, the Renewables Academy (RENAC), in collaboration with the IFC Alliance for Green Commercial Banks and the Private Finance Advisory Network (PFAN), launched the Green Banking – Capacity Building Programme in Jakarta, Indonesia. The event brought together financial institutions, project developers, and industry leaders to advance the country’s green finance transformation. 

Green Banking offers scholarships for specialized training in financing Green Hydrogen, small-scale renewable energy and energy efficiency projects and project development.  Additionally, train-the-trainer seminars are also planned to equip professionals with essential skills to drive Indonesia’s energy transition. These programs will be delivered through a combination of in-person and blended learning formats. 

At the launch event, Mr. Praptono Adhi Sulistomo, Coordinator of Investment and Cooperation for New and Renewable Energy at Indonesia’s Ministry of Energy, highlighted Green Hydrogen as a key element in achieving Indonesia’s renewable energy and net-zero emissions targets. 

By strengthening the capacity of financial institutions and project developers, the initiative aims to bridge financing gaps and support sustainable energy projects through increased private sector involvement. 

The first scholarship-based Green Hydrogen training begins in June 2025. To stay informed about the application process and future training opportunities, subscribe to RENAC’s Green Banking newsletter.
