Yayasan Rumah Energi was
established by Hivos with the aim to support the development of
renewable energy in Indonesia. The prime reason for establishing YRE was
to create a local agency which can take responsibility for the
sustained implementation of the biogas sector development activities
initiated by Hivos under a grant with the Dutch embassy in 2009.
