Abstract

The increase in human energy consumption and the serious effects of the dominance of fossil energy, especially limited supply and climate change, have an impact on changes in the global geopolitical order. As such, the adaptation carried out by Indonesia became an important step in ensuring national energy security amidst global challenges. This research highlights the urgency of accelerating the energy transition to renewable sources in Indonesia as part of the national strategy. Efforts to accelerate the energy transition are not only a response to global demands, but also as an effort to maintain energy security, environmental sustainability, and are an important geopolitical factor. This study uses mixed research methods, where the author carries out quantitative data processing and then juxtaposes it with qualitative processing and analysis. The analysis was carried out using the concept of resource geopolitics. This study found that abundant renewable resource capacity, downstream efforts by the government, reduced dependence on other countries, and increasingly mature energy transition readiness make Indonesia better prepared to face global geopolitical competition. This study concludes that accelerating the energy transition in Indonesia is not just a response to global demands, but is also a strategic step to increase energy security, disaster resilience and environmental resilience.
超越环保主义:印尼矿产出口禁令和可再生能源转型背后的地缘政治棋局
人类能源消耗的增加以及化石能源主导地位的严重影响,特别是有限的供应和气候变化,对全球地缘政治秩序的变化产生了影响。因此,印尼开展的适应工作成为在全球挑战中确保国家能源安全的重要一步。本研究强调,作为国家战略的一部分,印尼迫切需要加快向可再生能源的能源转型。加快能源转型的努力不仅是对全球需求的回应,也是维护能源安全和环境可持续性的努力,同时也是一个重要的地缘政治因素。本研究采用混合研究方法,作者在进行定量数据处理的同时,还进行了定性处理和分析。分析采用了资源地缘政治学的概念。本研究发现,丰富的可再生资源能力、政府的下游努力、减少对其他国家的依赖以及日益成熟的能源转型准备,使印尼能够更好地应对全球地缘政治竞争。本研究得出结论,印尼加快能源转型不仅是对全球需求的回应,也是提高能源安全、抗灾能力和环境复原力的战略步骤。
