Abstract

Background: Indonesia’s industrial sector has a high demand for electrical energy, contributing significantly to global energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. With 84.53% of national power generation relying on fossil fuels, concerns arise regarding energy security and environmental sustainability, particularly CO₂ emissions from coal-fired power plants. Method: This study examines CO₂ emission reduction through rooftop solar panel implementation in the Industrial Area. A combination of literature review and spatial analysis was used to assess emission reduction potential and formulate sustainable industrial strategies. Findings: The research estimates that rooftop solar panels can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 0.15 Mt-CO₂e/year (literature study) and 0.04 Mt-CO₂e/year (spatial analysis). Spatial studies provide more precise estimations than literature-based approaches. Achieving these reductions requires increased funding, technology transfer, human resource investment, improved social acceptance, local actor empowerment, industrial coalitions, and policy updates. Conclusion: Transitioning to renewable energy in industrial areas can significantly reduce CO₂ emissions. However, comprehensive strategies integrating financial, technological, and policy support are essential for effective implementation. Novelty/Originality of this Study: This study uniquely compares literature-based and spatial analysis approaches to assess emission reduction potential. It also provides a strategic framework for sustainable industrial transformation, emphasizing the role of local and international collaboration in implementing renewable energy solutions.

Abstract

Background: Indonesia, as the world's leading palm oil producer, significantly contributes to the global supply and national GDP. However, the industry's expansion has led to increased plastic waste generation, exacerbating environmental and health concerns due to inefficient waste management. Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) has been proposed as a strategic solution to improve sustainability in the sector. Method: This study conducts a systematic review of sustainability reports from Indonesian palm oil companies, analyzing corporate approaches to plastic pollution, sustainable packaging, and EPR. Data were collected from company websites and linked packaging-related sections, followed by a content analysis to assess commitments to these key areas. Findings: The analysis reveals a divide within the sector: while half of the major companies acknowledge plastic pollution in their reports, the other half lack awareness or action. Sustainable packaging initiatives remain insufficient to meet Indonesia’s target of reducing plastic usage by 30% by 2029. Additionally, corporate commitment to EPR is limited to only a small portion of the industry. Conclusion: The study highlights the need for stronger regulatory enforcement and corporate accountability in addressing plastic waste management. A broader adoption of EPR and sustainable packaging practices is crucial for the palm oil sector to align with national and global environmental goals. Novelty/Originality of this Study: This study provides a critical assessment of plastic waste management in the Indonesian palm oil sector, offering insights into corporate sustainability commitments. By evaluating EPR adoption and sustainable packaging practices, it identifies gaps and areas for policy and industry improvement.
