CCS charts a reliable but challenging path toward net zero

Indonesia, a developing country endowed with abundant fossil fuel resources, anticipates that fossil fuels will continue to be its primary energy source for the coming decades. However, in line with its commitment to combating climate change, the government has pledged to reduce carbon emissions stemming from fossil fuel consumption. The country has set an ambitious climate goal of reducing carbon emissions by 31.89 percent by 2030, or 43.2 percent with international support. Additionally, Indonesia aspires to achieve carbon neutrality or net zero by 2060. To realize these objectives, Indonesia is committed to embracing carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology.
