Electric Mobility Industry Analyst - Cities Program

This is a hybrid position which requires 8 days per month in the office. You will be based in our office in WRI Indonesia, Jakarta. Existing work authorization is required at the time of application submission as WRI is unable to sponsor any visa work sponsorship for this position.

Program Overview

WRI Indonesia’s e-mobility portfolio focuses on reducing cities’ GHG emission through sustainable transportation, vehicle electrification and, in-paralel with the energy and climate programs, greening the electricity grid to reach optimum emission reduction. Our mission is to help cities and provinces to implement low carbon development, particularly in transportation and energy sectors, to achieve economic, social, and environmental goals.

Supply Side Regulation

To achieve this mission, WRI Indonesia collaborates with the government, industry players, and other private sector stakeholders to develop strategies for implementing robust demand- and supply-side measures for zero-emission mobility adoption. In this particular project, WRI Indonesia will work with the government and key partners to assess and implement the Supply Side Regulation (SSR) strategy for the transition to zero-emission mobility in Indonesia.

The SSR strategy will cover interventions including, but not limited to, ZEV (Zero-Emission Vehicle) sales mandates, fuel efficiency standards, CO₂ emission standards, and credit trading mechanisms. This will be accomplished through unbiased technical research, comprehensive data collection, stakeholder and expert consultations, and cross-country knowledge exchanges. Through the implementation of this project, WRI Indonesia aims to support the Indonesian government in achieving its e-mobility targets while contributing to the realization of transport decarbonization goals.

Zero Emission Heavy Duty Vehicle (HDV) Acceleration

The Government of Indonesia (GoI) through the National Energy Master Plan has set ambitious targets for zero-emission vehicles (ZEV) adoption, including the goal of electrifying more than 10,000 electric buses by 2030 in Jakarta. However, several sub-national governments are struggling to implement this huge target due to government’s fiscal capacity constraint and the high initial costs to procure cleaner technology for heavy duty vehicle operations (bus and truck). Aiming to solve these fundamental barriers, WRI Indonesia is proposing a new procurement mechanism which emphasizes the benefits of having aggregated demand from the city and introducing a national, mass procurement framework which aims to lower the “gross cost contract” prices (fee/km) services. The goal of this project is, to make electric HDVs’ cost lower than diesel and CNG buses through a more cost-effective procurement strategy. Having this strategic program that will be co-implemented with key national ministries, WRI Indonesia seeks to work with a E-Mobility Analyst to lead the technical analysis, research and monitor the concept development of mass procurement for zero emission HDV in Indonesia.

Indonesia’s Battery Supply Chain Roadmap

As Indonesia advances its ambition to increase the adoption of electric vehicles to achieve net-zero emissions, it is increasingly critical to ensure that the upstream and midstream components of the EV ecosystem, particularly the battery supply chain, are developed strategically to increase the country’s sovereignty in the energy transition. WRI Indonesia believes that this must be initiated through a roadmap that can guide policymakers, industry players, and communities on the pathways for building a resilient, competitive, and sustainable battery ecosystem. Understanding the demand, which is strongly driven by the adoption of EVs in the country, while also establishing the regulatory framework and consolidated actions for second-life and after-use implementation, is very important for Indonesia’s battery ecosystem building. Through this initiative, WRI Indonesia hopes that Indonesia is able to build its own pathways for developing an EV battery ecosystem that suits market and industry needs.
