Recommendations on coal mine methane for Indonesia’s Second NDC

This briefing by Ember provides recommendations to Indonesia's Ministry of Environment and Forestry for the country's Second Nationally Determined Contribution (SNDC), specifically focusing on the reporting and mitigation of coal mine methane (CMM) emissions.

• Ember proposes several specific actions for Indonesia's Second NDC and Biennial Transparency Report (BTR) to better address coal mine methane, including recalculating emissions, incorporating underground mine emissions, developing region-specific emission factors, and implementing mitigation across both surface and underground mines.
• The recommendations include commitments to enforce company-led emission reporting, integrate direct measurement in underground mines, and limit coal expansion to support industry sustainability and a just transition.
• The recommendations are framed by Indonesia's status as a major global coal producer and its 2021 commitment to the Global Methane Pledge, which aims for a minimum 30% reduction in methane emissions by 2030.
