Since last year, World Resources Institute (WRI) Indonesia has been supporting the Bali Transportation Agency (Dinas Perhubungan Bali) in transitioning towards e-mobility and renewable energy. WRI Indonesia has signed a 5-year memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Bali’s Provincial Government to assist and tackle challenges in Bali e-mobility development. We are supporting the Bali Government through assistance and scientific-based analyses that are aimed to develop the enabling conditions for the EV ecosystem in Bali.
