<![CDATA[In contemporary governance, the relocation of national capital is a recurring phenomenon. This study aimed to analyze the potential for political and developmental advancement through renewable energy in Indonesia’s new archipelagic capital by repurposing former mining sites. An explanatory qualitative method was employed, using internet-based media as the primary means of reporting and online news outlets as the main data sources. The N Capture feature—a web browser plugin designed to collect online materials from websites, social media platforms, and documents such as scientific publications—was used to gather data in Nvivo 12 Plus.
