Early Retirement of Coal-Fired Power Plants: Just Transition & Asset Repurposing (C2G)

The Indonesian Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP) provides momentum to co-create pathways for shutting down Coal Fired Power Plants (CFPPs), including young assets. Accelerated phase-out of CFPPs and innovative repurposing approaches implemented in a just manner contributes to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and to enabling a future-proof renewable energy system. The project contributes to repurposing coal assets with innovative ideas, while addressing environmental concerns and promoting renewable energy solutions. By establishing pilots to showcase the economic feasibility and just transition benefits, the project can serve as a blueprint for other countries to multiply the positive change beyond the project. Repurposing CFPP can also create a positive economic scale-up effect.
