JAKARTA - SOE Minister Erick Thohir emphasized that Indonesia is involved in the process of transitioning energy to new and renewable energy (EBT). Even so, Erick said that the roadmap or energy transition roadmap is focused on plans that can be achieved by Indonesia. Furthermore, Erick emphasized that Indonesia's perta road will not follow the pattern of other countries. For example, the zero target of carbon emissions or net zero emissions is set in 2060, or 10 years later than other countries. The reason is, this refers to the ability in Indonesia. "If we look at it like we don't like it. we pursue net zero emissions in 2060, this is indeed 10 years slower than global," he said in a Working Meeting with Commission VI DPR RI, Monday, December 5. "This is based on our roadmap, not driven by other countries," he continued.
Furthermore, Erick explained, in the energy transition process, one of which is the clean energy mix such as the utilization of solar power (PLTS) to hydropower (PLTA). However, Erick explained that the electricity price pegged from iron energy could be more expensive if it was accelerated like a roadmap for global countries. "If we follow 100 percent of their wishes, electricity will be more expensive, the question is, what is the absorb of expensive electricity, the government, or industry, or the people? This is also an issue," he said.
