Session > CARBON CONNECTION FOR CLIMATE ACTION
The 2025 UN Climate Change Conference-Belem (COP30/CMP20/CMA7) provides Indonesia with a significant opportunity to demonstrate its readiness and capability to participate in the global carbon trading system. With the theme "Accelerating Substantial Actions of Net Zero Achievement through Indonesia's High Integrity Carbon," the Indonesian Pavilion plans to showcase concrete projects, build stronger partnerships, and foster meaningful discussions among parties and partners involved in the carbon market. The "Seller Meets Buyer" event is specifically designed as a leading, business-focused platform to effectively connect carbon credit providers with those who threaten them.
IDXCarbon has been awarded as Carbon Positive Awards 2025 by Green Cross United Kingdom, thus the purpose of this session is to connect IDX-listed companies, IDX member companies, and users of carbon exchange services, which act as providers of high-quality carbon units, with potential buyers from around the world. These buyers can include international corporations, financial groups, global organizations, and governments seeking credibility in achieving their climate targets aligned with the SPEI/SRN/Indonesia Scheme. By providing a hosted space for presentations, live discussions, and individual meetings, this session seeks to create significant opportunities for sustainable agreements, joint projects, and alliances.
Crucially, this session focused on implementing the plan, rather than simply discussing potential outcomes. The ultimate goal was to achieve tangible business outcomes by providing the resources and support needed for broader and more inclusive international carbon trading. By focusing on implementation, this event ensured that Indonesia's engagement would result in measurable progress, stronger partnerships, and sustained collaboration with stakeholders worldwide.
Besides making transactions easier, the Seller Meet Buyer event also helps to create transparency, confidence in the market, and a shared understanding of how Indonesia’s carbon market works. It highlights Indonesia’s proactive steps to bring its own rules, policies, and private sector involvement into line with global standards under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. This alignment ensures that carbon credits issued by Indonesian organizations meet strict verification standards and truly help to reduce emissions.
Additionally, by making the Pavilion a center for sharing knowledge, exploring investment opportunities, and encouraging international teamwork, the session strengthens Indonesia’s broader climate diplomacy efforts. It emphasizes that Indonesia is dedicated not only to lowering its own emissions towards a low-carbon and climate resilience development, but also to taking a leading role in the growth of sustainable and trustworthy global carbon markets.
In conclusion, the Seller Meet Buyer event at COP30 is expected to produce clear business outcomes while improving Indonesia’s position in the international carbon market. By connecting sellers and buyers in a professional and transparent environment, the session will help turn climate goals into practical partnerships, promoting both global climate solutions and Indonesia’s long-term sustainable economic growth.
This session connected Indonesian climate project developers with potential buyers in the global carbon market. Three selected entities presented high-integrity carbon credit projects that offer verified emission reductions alongside significant social, economic, and biodiversity co-benefits.
Strategic Project Highlights:
1. Energy Sector: Geothermal-Based Energy Transition (PT Supreme Energy Rantau Dedap)
• Profile: A 91.2 MW Geothermal Power Plant in South Sumatra .
• Climate Impact: Successfully reduced 1.5 million tons of CO2e between 2021–2024 by replacing fossil fuel-based electricity .
• Carbon Integrity: Features strong dual certification, registered under the UN CDM (since 2012) and Indonesia’s National Registry System (SRN, 2024), ensuring validity and preventing double counting .
• Value Add: Supports SDGs 7, 8, and 13, creating jobs and funding community development programs .
2. FOLU Sector: Coastal Nature-Based Solutions (PT Pandu Wijaya Negara)
• Profile: The Indonesia Green Gold Project, focusing on Nyamplung (Calophyllum inophyllum) agroforestry .
• Technical Advantage: Nyamplung thrives in degraded/sandy soils, possesses high-density wood for long-term carbon storage, and produces seeds with a high Cetane Number (60-70) for premium biofuel .
• Socio-Economic Impact: Acts as a coastal erosion barrier while providing new income streams for coastal communities through derivative products (biodiesel, biochar, pharmaceuticals).
3. Waste Sector: Methane Transformation (Koperasi Gending Lestari Kebumen)
• Profile: Methane gas utilization from the Kaligending Controlled Landfill, Central Java .
• Innovation: Converts hazardous methane emissions into clean cooking energy distributed to 57 households, replacing LPG usage .
• Reduction Potential: Projected emission reduction of approximately 11,000 tCO2e per year, validated by Sucofindo in September 2025 .
Conclusion
Indonesia presents a mature and diverse portfolio of climate solutions, ranging from large-scale renewable infrastructure to community-based circular initiatives. All projects have undergone credible third-party verification, offering high-impact investment opportunities for the global carbon market.
