Solar Energy in Indonesia: The Implementation of Sustainable Development Goals for Net Zero Emissions

Abstract

Renewable energy transition from fossil to renewable energy is the focus of countries worldwide. Indonesia, as the largest country in ASEAN and has quite good economic growth, is also focusing on the issue of energy tourism. President Jokowi is trying to approach several countries with the same renewable energy commitment to realize Net Zero Emission (NZE). However, this research focuses more on solar energy related to the availability of sunlight in tropical climates such as Indonesia. Based on the concept used in this research, namely SDG pin 7, partnership in the field of solar energy continues to be carried out. The solar energy transition in Indonesia has yet to be fully realized. However, by 2026, it is hoped that it can be implemented despite several obstacles the government and stakeholders face. The method uses qualitative methods because the data is obtained from published scientific research on renewable energy and interviews with stakeholders. This research aims to continue to realize the transition from fossil energy to renewable energy to reach the NZE.
