Indonesia is accelerating its climate agenda! 🌍 The government has finalized regulations for carbon capture and storage (CCS), a groundbreaking move to slash global emissions and boost sustainable energy. The rules now await President Joko Widodo’s green light, according to energy official Dadan Kusdiana.
🔋 “This regulation completes our toolkit to fight climate change,” Kusdiana declared during a Jakarta webinar, highlighting plans to expand renewable energy alongside CCS. The strategy aims to balance economic growth with cleaner industries—think Avengers-level teamwork between tech and nature! 💡
Why it matters: As a top global coal exporter, Indonesia’s pivot to CCS could set a template for emerging economies. The move also signals Jakarta’s ambition to lead Southeast Asia’s green transition—no small feat in a region juggling growth and sustainability.
