Australian initiative invests $8m in Indonesia’s climate fund

Australian Development Investments (ADI) has committed US$8 million to AC Ventures’ Climate and Sustainability Fund in Indonesia.

The investment aims to support renewable energy, electric mobility, energy efficiency, waste management, circular economy initiatives, and climate-smart agriculture.

The fund targets a reduction of 10 megatons of CO2 emissions.

This marks ADI’s first investment under Kinetik, the Australia-Indonesia Climate, Renewable Energy, and Infrastructure Partnership.

The announcement coincided with a visit to Indonesia by an Australian investor delegation, which included representatives from Macquarie Group, ANZ Bank, and Aspen Medical.

Over the past decade, Australian companies have invested more than US$4.3 billion in Indonesia, with annual investments exceeding US$500 million.
