The ability of Southeast Asia's largest economies to develop renewable energy sectors is important for the reduction of carbon emissions. A popular policy tool for jump‐starting growth in renewables is feed‐in‐tariffs (FITs), whereby the government pays a long‐term and mutually agreed rate to independent power producers to develop renewable energies such as solar, biomass, wind, and hydropower. Indonesia and the Philippines have both adopted FITs in recent years, and the result has been a strong growth of renewable energy in the Philippines, but not in Indonesia. This difference can be partly explained by variances in policy design and political economic conditions that have impacted policy success. The Philippines enacted a FIT scheme that reflected several best practices in policy design. The political economic conditions of energy markets in the Philippines were also initially more favourable. The variance in these components helps to explain the divergent results of their respective FIT systems.

印尼和菲律宾的上网电价与可再生能源的政治

东南亚最大经济体发展可再生能源行业的能力对于减少碳排放至关重要。上网电价补贴（FITs）是推动可再生能源快速增长的一种流行的政策工具，通过这种补贴，政府向独立的电力生产商支付长期和共同商定的税率，以开发太阳能，生物质能，风能和水力发电。印度尼西亚和菲律宾近年来都采用了上网电价补贴，其结果是菲律宾（而非印度尼西亚）的可再生能源强劲增长。可以通过影响政策成功的政策设计和政治经济条件的差异来部分解释这种差异。菲律宾制定了一项信托基金计划，该计划反映了政策设计中的几种最佳做法。菲律宾能源市场的政治经济条件最初也更为有利。这些成分的差异有助于解释其各自FIT系统的不同结果。
