Agence Française de Développement invites you to their event
About this event
An archipelago of 17,500 islands and a major coal producer, Indonesia is engaging in an ambitious decarbonization effort under the JETP (Just Energy Transition Partnership).
But how can the country balance climate efficiency, social equity, and political acceptability?
Raising fuel prices could accelerate CO₂ emission reductions, yet risk deepening energy poverty among low-income households.
This webinar will explore the behavioral and social impacts of higher energy prices, and discuss redistribution mechanisms that could make the transition fairer and more inclusive.
