Peraturan Pemerintah Kebijakan Energi Nasional penuh solusi palsu dan tidak mendorong transisi energi yang adil dan berkelanjutan
Summary
Trend Asia criticizes the new PP KEN for extending the use of fossil fuels until 2060, lowering renewable energy targets for 2030, and promoting high-risk or non-renewable 'new energy' sources like nuclear, hydrogen, and ammonia. The report highlights the environmental and social risks of bioenergy, specifically co-firing and Energy Plantation Forests (HTE), which it links to deforestation and land grabbing. It further argues that the policy lacks transparency, excludes community-scale renewable energy, and prioritizes industrial interests over human rights and ecological sustainability.
Key insights
- The PP KEN extends the reliance on fossil fuels, specifically coal, oil, and gas, until 2060, which Trend Asia argues ignores the urgency of the climate crisis and maintains a 'business as usual' approach.
- Indonesia's commitment to renewable energy has weakened, with the 2030 energy mix target reduced from 24% to a range of 19-22%.
- The regulation promotes 'false solutions' by categorizing 'new energy'—such as nuclear, hydrogen, and ammonia—alongside renewables, despite these sources being finite, potentially uneconomical, or environmentally risky.
- Bioenergy, specifically biomass used in co-firing at coal-fired power plants (PLTU) and Biomass Power Plants (PLTBm), is criticized for causing deforestation and social conflict. Trend Asia estimates that supplying 10% biomass for 52 PLTUs would require 2.3 million hectares of land annually.
- The PP KEN lacks provisions for community-scale renewable energy, which Trend Asia argues hinders inclusive energy access in remote or underdeveloped areas (4T regions).
- The report identifies a lack of transparency and public participation in the drafting of the PP KEN, which it claims creates opportunities for corruption and the influence of 'tycoons' in the energy business.
- The document cites the Rempang Eco-city project as an example of how national strategic energy projects can lead to human rights violations, including the displacement of indigenous Melayu communities and environmental degradation.
