Indonesia expands use of eco-friendly energy

Indonesia expands use of eco-friendly energy

The government of Indonesia has set a plan to use more clean energy by using
waste as source of electricity, a move aiming at preserving environment.

Coordinating Minister for Maritime Luhut Pandjaitan disclosed on Monday that
the government would cooperate with four nations - Finland, Denmark, Norway
and Sweden, which have a better experience and technology in processing
waste into energy.

"It is important to have perspective of the four countries which have been
strongly committed to preserving environment in unveiling policies here in
Indonesia," Pandjaitan said at Mandarin Oriental Hotel.

The minister said he had visited the countries and saw the processing of
waste into energy and is interested in applying such technology in
Indonesia.

"The most important in the cooperation will be the transfer of technology,"
he said.

Pandjaitan admitted that Indonesia has not taken benefit of waste for
energy.

The government of Indonesia has targeted to meet to a 23-percent usage of
renewable energy by 2025.

Indonesia has been at the forefront along with other countries home to rain
forest in global efforts to reduce production carbon emission.

The government has pledged to reduce 26 percent production of CO2 carbon
emission by 2020 and expand it to 41 percent under the financial and
technology assistances from developed countries.
