Abstract

East Kalimantan relies heavily on fossil fuels, including diesel and coal, for on-grid power and diesel generator sets for off-grid power. The development of wood energy is one way to utilize forest products that are currently underway. Various efforts and research projects have been conducted, but there are still barriers to implementation and practice in the field. This study aims to identify potential barriers and policies proposed in the framework for the successful development of bio and wood energy in East Kalimantan. Data collected through documents study, interviews, and observation, using content analysis. The result showed that the existing local policies and regulations had supported efforts to accelerate bio and wood energy development. The necessary number of policy interventions were identified to support bio and wood energy investment by improving financial performance, technical and human capacity, and integrated planning dan reducing business and regulatory risks. While the proposed policies to address the barriers that will support the successful development of bio and wood energy are macroeconomic and market policies, financial investment policies, operational and enabling policies and legal-regulatory policies.
