Ecobiz.asia — Thirteen Indonesian low-carbon companies have been selected to join the 2026 Indonesia cohort of the Climate Finance Accelerator (CFA), a UK-funded global programme designed to help climate businesses attract investment and scale solutions supporting the country’s low-carbon transition.

The selected companies will receive technical assistance to strengthen their investment readiness through tailored advisory services, capacity building, and direct engagement with investors over the coming months.

The 2026 cohort is the first group of companies selected under CFA Indonesia, which forms part of the global Climate Finance Accelerator programme operating in ten countries to develop investment-ready climate projects and mobilize private climate finance.

The companies represent a broad range of sectors central to Indonesia’s climate agenda, including renewable energy, electric mobility, agriculture, forestry and land use, waste and circular economy, water treatment, and low-carbon manufacturing.

The selected businesses include electric mobility companies Blitz, Charged Indonesia, Dash, and Kalista; solar developer SolarKita; agritech firms Elevarm, Eratani, and Pandawa Agri Indonesia; biomaterials producer MYCL; water technology providers Nazava Water Filters and PJLEnviro; e-waste recycler REMIND; and biochar developer WasteX.

British Ambassador to Indonesia Dominic Jermey said the programme reflects the growing climate partnership between the United Kingdom and Indonesia while helping innovative businesses secure the capital needed to expand.

“These innovative climate entrepreneurs will now benefit from high-quality technical assistance from both Indonesian and international experts, helping to position them for investment and growth,” Jermey said in a statement on Tuesday.

He said the programme supports Indonesia’s ambition to achieve net-zero emissions by 2060 by mobilizing private climate finance and drawing on UK expertise in sustainable investment.

Participating companies will receive tailored support on investment strategy, environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices, financial structuring, and business development through expert-led workshops, one-on-one advisory sessions, and peer learning.

The programme will conclude with an investor engagement event, where participating companies will present their business proposals to domestic and international investors.

Maurice Shawndefar, Advisor at PwC Indonesia and Team Lead for CFA Indonesia, said the selected businesses demonstrate the growing strength of climate innovation across Indonesia.

“Through tailored capacity-building support, we aim to help these companies unlock the capital they need to scale their solutions and deliver meaningful climate impact,” he said.

The Climate Finance Accelerator is funded by the UK Government’s Department for Energy Security and Net Zero through its International Climate Finance programme. Globally, CFA has supported more than 230 businesses and helped unlock over US$500 million in investment across ten participating countries, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, India, Kenya, Pakistan, South Africa, Colombia, and Mexico. ***
