What happened
Indonesia is currently adapting its energy mix in response to global energy shifts driven by the Iran war. The country is replacing some diesel power plants with solar power while simultaneously maintaining a reliance on coal for heavy industries. This transition is occurring as the government also considers expanding natural gas production.
Why it matters
While the Iran war has spurred clean energy adoption, global emissions are still slightly up, and clean energy investments are down compared to the previous year. Governments are currently balancing the need for clean power against the continued support for fossil fuel expansion.
