| Abstract: | This research investigates oil dependence in Indonesia and the government's role in making policies for the energy transition. This study was conducted to determine the factors of high dependence on oil. Obstacles to optimizing Renewable Energy as transitional energy and government steps in making appropriate policies to maximize existing potential to ensure energy security and sovereignty. Interviews with policymakers and policy implementers were conducted to collect data using thematic analysis to synthesize each Interviewee's main idea. The analysis results will answer the research question, “What is the role of Government policy in eliminating dependence on oil towards a sustainable transition from national lock-in to achieve the 2030 and 2050 General National Energy Plan (REUN) targets?” Unclear government policies are an obstacle to the energy transition, especially for investors. S. The Indonesian government is beginning to realize the pattern of the public indulging in cheap fuel, so they are inefficient in consuming energy. So, the government revised the National Energy Policy (KEN) by adding the Indonesian gold variables 2045 and NZE 2060. This study chose national lock-in and sustainability transition as a conceptual framework to answer the research question and elaborate on the results. Thematic analysis was chosen because it was considered most suitable for processing qualitative data from semi-structured interviews. Although this research only focuses on Indonesia, future research can expand the context by comparing it with other countries. This research offers an analysis to understand the conditions of high and entrenched oil dependence, the difficulty of implementing the renewable energy transition, and the importance of the government's role in making a policy for the sustainability of the energy mix in Indonesia. |
