Indonesia carbon profile

Indonesia emits roughly 730 Mt of CO₂ per year — about 2.0% of global emissions, ranking #7 worldwide. At 2.6 tonnes per person (#71 per capita), its footprint is below the global average of ~4.7 t.

Emissions have risen noticeably over the past five years (+18%) and surged over the decade (+40%). Growth in energy demand is still outpacing clean-energy deployment.

Renewables supply about 19% of electricity. Electricity remains dominated by fossil fuels, making the power sector the biggest decarbonization lever.

Without policy shifts, emissions could grow another ~18% by 2030 as the economy expands. Accelerating renewable build-out is the highest-impact opportunity.
