Indonesia plans 10 GW nuclear power in major renewable energy push: Presidential aide


JAKARTA: Indonesia is planning a major expansion in renewable energy by 2040, including the introduction of 10 GW of nuclear power, and expects contracts to be given in the next five years, a senior aide of President Prabowo Subianto said in an interview.

That would more than double current capacity as Indonesia, one of the world's biggest emitters of greenhouse gases, aims for carbon neutrality before 2050, said Hashim Djojohadikusumo (pic), Prabowo's brother and the president's special envoy for energy and climate.
