I. Background
Yayasan Rumah Energi (YRE) was established in 2012 in the social and humanitarian fields . The organization is mandated to contribute and create positive impacts on poverty alleviation, strengthening the livelihood of grassroots' communities, adaptation and mitigation to climate change and assisting in disaster risk reduction through innovation and shared knowledge. The overarching mandates are translated into YRE's 3 (three) main YRE programs, namely: i) Renewable Energy; ii) Sustainable Food; and iii) Social Business Incubation. This program diversification was carried out by YRE as an effort to adapt to the opportunities and needs of the YRE targeted beneficiaries for the past 8 years.
Program Biogas Rumah (BIRU) is one of the flagship renewable energy program of YRE with 119.000 beneficiaries and 25.000 units of installed bio-digesters across 14 provinces in Indonesia. YRE's role in the program design is to create a market ecosystem for biogas supply and demand to thrive. In doing so YRE has forged partnerships with 35 local SMEs as biogas contractor, 27 Micro Finance Institutions (MFIs) and corporation partners for blended finance model. Our food security program is a continuation of our BIRU program where we are advocating for a circular economy model that connects and brings added value to energy and food security. We empower our farmers partners to use the byproduct of biogas to be used as inputs to their farming practices. Lastly, our social incubation program is aimed at increasing their business resiliency and amplifying their impacts to the environment. PROWOMEN, Biogas Service Centers and Puan Desa Inspiratif are several examples of our incubation programs which are mostly focused on empowering women entrepreneurs.
