June 2025: On June 1, 2025, Indonesia launched its National Roadmap for Hydrogen and Ammonia, aiming to achieve net-zero emissions by 2060. The roadmap outlines 215 action plans across regulatory, infrastructure, and export development phases, targeting 4.2 million tons of hydrogen consumption annually for power generation. It is structured into short-, medium-, and long-term goals, focusing on regulation, infrastructure integration, and hydrogen export. The initiative is expected to create 300,000 jobs and generate USD 70 billion in revenue. Supported by the Global Green Growth Institute and New Zealand’s RE-ACT Project, the roadmap emphasizes renewable energy, decarbonization, and global market expansion, while addressing regulatory and investment challenges.

May 2024: The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) has developed a detailed roadmap to incorporate hydrogen as a primary energy source by 2060. The adoption of hydrogen is set to begin in 2025, with expected consumption between 125,594 and 245,462 tons. Tony Susandy, Coordinator of Engineering and Environment at the ESDM, said that hydrogen will be integrated into various sectors such as manufacturing, transportation, power generation, and gas networks.

December 2023: Indonesia launched its National Hydrogen Strategy in December 2023. The strategies for the development of hydrogen are to: - Create a national strategic plan and roadmap for green hydrogen - Formulate regulations to support hydrogen development - Develop the use of renewable energy sources to reduce the price of electricity from renewable energy
- Support the development of domestic electrolyzer technology
- Develop domestic green hydrogen production
- Support the development technology to produce green hydrogen more efficiently
- Develop integrated infrastructure to support the use of hydrogen in industry and transportation
