By having a series of programs involving various parties, Rumah Energi has actively cooperated with the Indonesian government in providing policy advocacy in the renewable energy sector. One of the example is generating new empirical research to help make policy decisions.

Policy Advocacy
Data Analytic
Long experience in the world of renewable energy, especially biogas, has made Rumah Energi able to provide data processing facilities from the biogas sector. Examples of data that can be processed include information on the functioning status of biogas, the effectiveness of funding sources, and the location of biogas development with geospatial technology.
Product Research, Development, and Implementation
The development is related to the BIRU program with new innovations, namely Mini Home Biogas (BIOMIRU). Not only breeders can benefit from biogas, even urban communities with limited areas can separate their waste from their own homes by using BIOMIRU for cooking by utilizing organic waste from their kitchen or garden.
Business Incubation
To boost the community’s economy, Rumah Energi believes in the capabilities of entrepreneurial businesses and Micro and Small Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in supporting the national economy through mentoring activities or social business incubation. Recognizing the high participation of women in the movement for the country’s economic values is very important to be fully supported.
Mentoring and Capacity Building
One of Rumah Energi main strengths in program implementation is through mentoring and strengthening community capacity. Mentoring is carried out to help understand and implement the program through various activities, such as technical guidance and education. Meanwhile, capacity building involves training, workshops, or collaborations that encourage growth and capacity development.
Gender Mainstreaming
Rumah Energi instills the principle of gender mainstreaming to integrate gender perspectives into the planning framework and program work, such as gender equality and social inclusion, empowerment of women’s groups, and gender-based financing (gender lens investment). Ensuring that policies, programs, and activities at all levels and sectors consider the different experiences, needs, and interests to achieve gender equality, where women and men have equal access to resources, opportunities, and decision-making.
