To support this, the Indonesia Carbon Capture and Storage Center (ICCSC) will organize a Forum entitled International and Indonesia CCS Forum 2023 at Hotel Mulia Jakarta, 11-12 September 2023.

This event consisted of Forum and Exhibition activities, with the theme 'Pioneering The Energy Landscape Decarbonization Future: Harnessing The Power of CCS Globally for A Cleaner Future and Economic Growth'.

"ICCSC's commitment to the future of energy decarbonization is based on the belief that environmental protection and economic growth need not conflict," said Merry at the 2023 International and Indonesia CCS Forum Launching event in Jakarta, Tuesday, May 30.

"On the contrary, we believe that the harmony between a clean environment and sustainable economic growth can become a reality," he added.
