Indonesia

Overview

Indonesia submitted its first Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) in 2016, followed by an updated version in 2022. In October 2025, Indonesia submitted its second NDC.

Under this new NDC, Indonesia's greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are expected to peak by 2030. The new 2030 target is 1.35 to 1.49 gigatons (Gt) CO2e, around 8–17.5% lower than the 2030 target in the previous NDC. By 2035, GHG emissions are projected to start declining from this peak, between 1.26 and 1.49 GtCO2e.

Mitigation priorities in Indonesia's latest NDC include expanding renewable energy and boosting energy efficiency and management, accelerating electric vehicle and biofuel deployment, reducing deforestation and restoring ecosystem functions, promoting low carbon fuels and energy efficiency in industry, advancing a "Zero Waste Zero Emission" agenda, and protecting blue carbon reserves and scaling up marine conservation.

Adaptation priorities focus on climate resilient food systems, resilient water resources, ocean-based adaptation and coastal protection, and strengthening ecosystem and landscape resilience.

Indonesia's NDC, led by the Ministry of Environment (KLH) and the Ministry of National Development Planning (BAPPENAS), is aligned with its Long Term Strategy for Low Carbon and Climate Resilience (LTS LCCR 2050) and national development plans, with a strong emphasis on just transition and inclusive stakeholder engagement.
