PAKLIM Call for Proposals 2011
At more than 230 million inhabitants and with steady growth figures, Indonesia is a highly promising market, whose industry sector is the driving force for the economic development and wealth of the country. Simultaneously, due to the fact that most power plants and industries in the country are still equipped with low-efficient technologies excessively emitting GHG, the industry sector is also an important contributor to Indonesia’s emission levels, which hence offers manifold opportunities for improvements. 

This Call for Proposals aims at establishing new partnerships by inviting companies to cooperate closely with PAKLIM in developing pilot projects that will allow private partners to realize their own interests in terms of e.g. launching innovative technologies in the Indonesian market, greening their supply chain, or implementing sustainable CSR measures, while at the same time contributing to the development of NAMAs (Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions) in the Indonesian industry sector (i.e. GHG reductions through an increase in energy efficiency, fuel switching, and/or major process modifications).

Who should participate

Technology providers interested in entering the Indonesian market and applying innovative technological business models for industrial enterprises and/or industrial estates, preferably in the areas of:

  • Process heat/ heat recovery (CHP), co-generation
  • Efficient boiler and motor systems
  • Automatisation
  • Fuel switching
  • Renewable energy applications
  • Recycling, efficient material use

National and international companies already active in Indonesia and interested in:

  • Investing and jointly implementing innovative technologies and energy efficiency measures in their own production sites and supply chains.
  • Using their CSR funds and experiences for building new climate change business models and with this to help the local community and to become climate ‘champions’.

Any company with an innovative proposal for initiating jointly with PAKLIM a model for the implementation of NAMAs (Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions) in the Indonesian industry sector.

Requirements for Development Partnerships

  • All companies (local, state, regional and international) can submit their proposal. While non-governmental organisations, public institutions, foundations etc. are able to participate, they cannot be the sole applicants nor the lead agency in a consortium/working group.
  • The company has to be financially robust enough to ensure project funding and sustainability (at least 10 employees, three years on the market, annual turnover of at least 1 million euros, long-term entrepreneurial commitment in Indonesia).
  • PAKLIM’s and the private sector’s contributions must complement each other in such a way that the cooperation enables the two partners to achieve their objectives more cost-effectively, more efficiently and more rapidly (complementarity).
  • PAKLIM will provide contribution only if the private partner would not be able to implement the project without PAKLIM as the public partner and the measure is not required by law (subsidiarity).
  • At least 50% of the costs (prime costs) are borne by the company. PAKLIM will provide input between EUR 100,000 – EUR 200,000 into the project. The proposal may also comprise direct inputs by PAKLIM, such as technical, intercultural or managerial expertise.
  • The project is envisaged to commence in early 2012 with a duration of 1,5 to 2 years.

Procedure of the Call for Proposals

  • Interested companies submit an entry form before August 31st, 2011, including a short description of the project they propose.
  • The suitability of the proposal will be assessed according to predefined criteria in PAKLIM. For further details please download “Criteria for assessment”. The applicants are informed of the outcome of the selection process by October 2011.
  • On the basis of the short description, the selected company and PAKLIM jointly elaborate a full length concept for the project. Among others, this includes costing the project in accordance with the financial and technical stipulations laid down by PAKLIM for Development Partnerships.
  • Following examination of and agreement on the long version of the concept, a contract is concluded between PAKLIM and the company. After the contract is signed, the implementation phase of the Development Partnership begins.

This year’s Call for Proposals is closed by now and we are currently in the finalization of two new Development Partnerships deriving from this recent round.

However, PAKLIM continues to deepen its engagement with the private sector and hence welcomes any interested company to directly approach us with innovative ideas for partnerships that contribute to fostering low-carbon development in Indonesia.
