Indonesian Deputy Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Yuliot Tanjung was quoted by local media as saying that if the country develops a small modular reactor or large-scale nuclear power, it can estimate that around 6,800 green jobs will be created.

He noted that the Indonesian Government has mapped human resources competencies to align with industry demands, while also synchronizing vocational education curricula and preparing training institutions, including teachers and trainers.

Tanjung added that significant employment opportunities are also expected from other renewable energy sectors. The solar industry is projected to absorb about 348,057 workers, followed by hydropower with 129,759 workers and battery development with 68,193 workers.
