Driving Change: Indonesia’s Mission to Cut CO2 Emissions by 358 Million Tonnes
Indonesia has set a resolution to slash emissions in the energy sector by a significant 358 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2) by 2030. To accomplish this, various initiatives have been undertaken, including implementing energy-efficient practices, promoting renewable energy, adopting clean energy technologies for power generation, utilizing low-carbon fuels, and focusing on post-mining reclamation.
Part of Bigger Plans
Indonesia’s commitment to emissions reduction is further underscored by the country’s “Long-Term Strategy for Low Carbon and Climate Resilience 2050,” a testament to their dedication to the Paris Agreement. Indonesia is steadfast in achieving net zero emissions by 2060, aligning with their vision of becoming a developed nation by 2045.
The transformation journey involves economic diversification, driven by knowledge, technology, and innovation, and leveraging clean energy value chains. Recently, the government issued Government Regulation Number 33 of 2023, emphasizing energy conservation. This regulation encourages efficient, rational, and prudent energy usage to meet current and future energy needs.
Using More Sustainable Energy
By fostering community and business participation, Indonesia aims to ensure the availability of sustainable national energy. A comprehensive approach is being pursued to optimise energy conservation efforts, encompassing energy management, standardized energy performance, energy-saving labels, financing and service business development. Others include increased awareness and capacity building of human resources and collaborative research on energy conservation innovations.
Recognizing the urgency, Indonesia acknowledges that achieving net zero emissions by 2060 necessitates swift and sustainable actions. Energy efficiency is a vital pillar in transitioning to clean energy, focusing on enhancing industrial, building, and transportation sectors while upholding the principles of sustainable development. Moreover, beyond reducing carbon emissions, energy efficiency can positively impact social and economic development, bolster energy security, improve quality of life, and foster job opportunities for the nation’s progress.
