Where the evolution of traditional power systems, integration of next-generation clean technology and framework as well as financing that supports this transition, will be the focus of discussion.
Indonesia itself has submitted a new proposal regarding the nationally determined contribution (NDC), which was submitted to the United Nations, reducing carbon emissions by 32 percent or the equivalent of 912 million tons of CO2 by 2030. This target is up from the previous figure of 29 percent. In addition, it also discusses synergy efforts that can be made by stakeholders in Indonesia in achieving the 0 percent zero emission target in 2060.
In the same event, a discussion panel was also held on the 'Accelerated Development of EBT-Based Electricity: with sub-topics:'Indonesian Electricity Sector Readiness in Achievement of NDC 2030 Targets through Renewable Energy Development', with the topic being discussed:- The EBT Generation Mix Plan at the 2023-2032 RUPTL by the Minister of Warsiono - EVP Rensis PT PLN Persero
- Plans for Procurement of EBT Plants for 2023 - 2034 and its Cooperation Scheme by Mr. Alland Asqolani - EVP for Procurement of EBT & IPP Plants PT PLN Persero
- Challenges in the Implementation of EBT Development, Lesson Learned and Success Factors by Mr. Ardi Nugroho - VP Technologu Development of PT PLN Nusantara Power
In his remarks, the Director General of Electricity at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources of the Republic of Indonesia, Mr. Ir. Jisman P. Hutajulu said the Challenge in the field of electricity is very large. As we know, Indonesia is currently still using 67 percent of the need for power generation from coal to meet around 83 Giga watts nationally.
The Indonesian government is committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the energy sector by 358 million tons C02 by 2030. The government has issued Law No. 16 years concerning the Paris Agreement on the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
In addition, the agenda for the sustainable clean energy transition to net zero emissions is also one of the G20 Indonesia presidency agendas in 2022. Then, the success of Indonesia's presidency is continued through the Chairship of ASEAN 2023 where one of the pillars is the energy sector. Therefore, through this event, we hope that the MKI can provide information and recommendations from input to take policies in the electricity sector.
Chairman of the MKI, Evy Hariyadi said, this forum is a sustainable effort from the MKI to support the government in achieving net zero emissions by 2030. Collaboration and cooperation with many parties are needed to help reduce emissions, especially in the field of electricity.
