Why Renewable Energy Matters
Energy and Environmental Challenges in Indonesia
Heavy reliance on fossil fuels increases energy security risks, degrades environmental quality, and accelerates climate change impacts. Indonesia holds vast renewable energy potential that remains significantly underutilized.
Air Quality and Emissions
Rising fossil energy consumption contributes to high levels of air pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions, affecting both public health and environmental sustainability.
WHO recommended PM2.5 guideline: ≤ 5 µg/m³
Fossil-Dominated Energy Mix
Indonesia’s national energy mix continues to be dominated by fossil sources, while renewable energy contributions remain below their full potential.
Renewable energy is not merely an alternative — it is a national strategic necessity.
