Power Sector Decarbonization Strategies
Policy Recommendations:
Decarbonization Planning, Sector Efficiency and Performance
Decarbonization planning:
Aligning strategies and targets across Government agencies will be critical to minimize
the costs and risks of stranded assets in the future.
To that end, appropriate pathways to phasing-down coal with innovative
financing mechanisms will need to be carefully assessed.
Solutions to decarbonize the grid such as interconnections (domestic and international),
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) or hydrogen need to be explored further.
To improve sector coordination, a new inter-ministerial commission could be created to align
environment, financial and fiscal targets.
To improve sector efficiency, separating system planning, generation procurement and
system operations from PLN's other activities could increase transparency and reduce
conflicts of interest.View entire presentation
