Aldilla Rakhiemah joined the ASEAN Centre for Energy (ACE) as Senior Research Analyst of Power, Fossil Fuel, Alternative Energy and Storage where she also leads research for the ASEAN Climate Change and Energy Project (ACCEPT) as Senior Research Analyst. She is involved in the project with a critical mission: to bolster ASEAN's capacities in transitioning towards a low- carbon energy system and ultimately achieving a net zero future. Her responsibilities include leading research on the energy and climate nexus within the ASEAN region, managing capacity buildings and coordinating within ACCEPT, where she is dedicated to broadening its impact and reach throughout Southeast Asia.
A passionate advocate for a just energy transition and gender equality in the energy sector, Aldilla’s leadership extends to managing capacity-building programmes and coordinating collaborative efforts that amplify ACCEPT's influence across Southeast Asia. With a robust background in the energy sector, Aldilla's expertise spans critical areas such as the intersection of energy and climate change, strategic energy policy development, and cutting-edge technologies like carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS).
Before joining ACE, Aldilla garnered extensive experience at Pertamina, Indonesia's state-owned energy company. She holds an MSc in Geography from the University of Zurich, Switzerland, and a BA in Economics from Airlangga University, Indonesia.
