According to the *Climate Transparency Report 2022*, Indonesia's electricity from renewable energy sources remains minimal. In 2021, renewable energy sources only accounted for 19% of the electricity mix.

Of this proportion, hydropower contributed the largest share at 8%. This was followed by biomass and waste at 5.3%; geothermal energy at 5.1%; onshore wind energy at 0.1%; and solar energy at 0.1%.

The report indicates an upward trend in the share of renewable energy in the domestic electricity sector over the past three decades.

"Although there has been rapid growth recently, solar and wind power still play a small role in electricity generation," the report states.

Conversely, fossil fuels dominated Indonesia's electricity sources in 2021. The report notes that 81% of the country's electricity came from coal, oil, and natural gas.

Specifically, coal accounted for 62% of Indonesia's electricity sources, followed by natural gas at 18% and oil at 2%.

The report also shows that the average share of renewable energy for electricity generation in Indonesia reached 18.7% from 2016 to 2021. This is lower than the G20 average of 28.6% for renewable energy in electricity generation over the same five-year period.
