Both scenarios expect that growth in electricity demand can primarily be met by deployment of renewables such as solar, due to their falling costs. Today, coal-fired plants meet more than 60% of Indonesia’s power demand. Under the ETS, coal’s share rises to a peak of 74% by 2027 and then declines to 24% in 2050.
