VOICED : Indonesian island hopes to spark green power revolution

The video discusses the transformation of energy access on the Indonesian island of Sumba, where 300 homes now have 24-hour electricity due to a small hydroelectric generator. This change has improved education and economic activities. Indonesia, a country with over 17,000 islands, faces challenges in electrification but aims to increase capacity using renewable sources. Sumba is leading with ambitious goals for 2025, utilizing solar, wind, and biogas from pig dung. These initiatives save costs and provide additional income. While small projects won't close the energy gap, they demonstrate the potential of renewable energy across Indonesia.
