New Climate Finance Goal A Boon for Indonesia, But Much Work Remains

At COP29 in Baku, countries agreed on global carbon market standards and a new climate finance goal (NCQG) of USD 300 billion annually by 2035, offering opportunities for Indonesia’s energy transition. While President Prabowo Subianto has pledged ambitious renewable energy targets and a coal phase-down, challenges such as record coal production, inefficiencies in the carbon market and unclear climate finance structures persist. To fully benefit from COP29 outcomes, Indonesia must advance energy reforms, address data gaps, and align its policies with international climate goals.
