Catalyzing Indonesia’s Energy Transition through Carbon Pricing and Sustainable Transport
The event marked the launch of two major initiatives: Emissions Ambition for Sustainable Economies (EASE) in Southeast Asia and Energy is Key (EnerKey), both of which are funded by Global Affairs Canada and implemented by the International Institute for Sustainable Development. EASE supports efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through inclusive carbon pricing policies in Indonesia, the Philippines and Vietnam, while EnerKey aims to help mitigate climate change by supporting the decarbonization of the transport and power sectors in Indonesia and the Philippines.
Bringing together government officials, energy experts, researchers, and civil society representatives, the event explored how Southeast Asian countries can translate climate ambition into policies that are both economically viable and socially equitable.
