What happened
The $32 billion new capital project in Nusantara, East Kalimantan, is progressing, serving as a planned replacement for Jakarta. Researchers note that developing a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) is vital for Nusantara to meet its Net Zero Energy target, which precedes the national deadline of 2060. The project has received presidential orders regarding site protection and international aid.
Why it matters
The capital project represents a massive national investment in East Kalimantan. The integration of VPP technology could allow Nusantara to cut its reliance on fossil energy by up to 55 percent through an integrated power sharing scheme. This effort is part of the government's broader aim to strengthen educational services in the region.
