Indonesia to build nuclear power plant for netzero emissions

Indonesia aims to develop a nuclear power plant in 2039 to achieve netzero emissions and support domestic needs for energy, the country’s Nuclear Energy Regulatory Agency (BAPETEN) said.

The agency’s Director for Nuclear Installation and Material Control, Haendra Subekti, said in a statement that to realize the target, Indonesia is currently looking for investors to help finance the plant’s construction.

Indonesia’s plan to establish a nuclear power plant has been stipulated under a government regulation on the operation of risky businesses. The plant aims to provide new and renewable energy for the Southeast Asian country so that it can reach its zero emissions target.
