Eko said, to achieve the net zero emission (NZE) target in 2060, the Indonesian Government is implementing five main principles, namely increasing the use of EBT, reducing fossil energy, utilizing Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), increasing the use of electricity in households and industries, and developing electric vehicle infrastructure in the transportation sector.
"In addition, the Indonesian government is trying to achieve nationally determined contributions (NDC) in the form of reducing CO2 emissions by 358 MtCO2 by 2030," he said.
