Indonesia to seek China's help to develop renewables at Belt and Road Forum


JAKARTA (Reuters): Indonesia will seek China's help for renewable energy and infrastructure projects when President Joko Widodo attends the upcoming Belt and Road Forum in Beijing, a cabinet minister said.

Any partnership with China would be parallel with the Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP) - a US$20 billion deal Indonesia has with a US-led group of countries to help decarbonise its energy sector, acting Chief Investment Minister Erick Thohir (pic) said in a Reuters interview on the weekend.
