Description
Summary:The article examines Indonesia’s efforts in the energy transition. By 2026, Indonesia aims to have 26% of its energy come from renewable sources. However, there are several obstacles to implementing this plan, including acquiring land owned by residents. As a solution, Indonesia has chosen to develop floating solar energy systems on various lakes and dams. This approach is seen as more realistic, given the public protests over land acquisition, which could deter investors. The research aims to highlight the importance of the energy transition in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and advancing Indonesia. It also seeks to contribute to the field of International Relations, particularly in the study of renewable energy, which is a key issue in this discipline. While not overly technical, the article offers insights into the potential for new energy solutions to create a better global environment in the future.
