APPLICATION OF TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENT IN CARBON CAPTURE AND STORAGE TECHNOLOGY IMPLEMENTATION FOR CO2 EMISSION IN INDONESIA

Green house gases (GHG) emission is one of the environmental issues that has not been resolved and continued to increase annually. Carbon dioxide gas is known as the largest contributor for GHG emissions. This environmental issue also happens in Indonesia as a developing country which has focused on sustainable development. In 2020, the total emission of carbon dioxide gas in Indonesia is predicted around 960 million ton if there is no mitigation action. In developed countries, they have a bold step to mitigate their emission of CO2 gas by using Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology. This technology is effective to reduce the CO2 emission in large-scale. The study and information about CCS, as a new technology to reduce emission, haven’t well developed in Indonesia. Based on the situation, the author tries to find important criteria for conducting a research of CCS technology implementation in Indonesia using participatory technology assesment. The output from this research are giving understanding how CCS could be used by seeing what important criteria needed by stakeholder to develop, particularly in Indonesia. The rate of carbon capture of CO2 emission and the cost of investment for carbon capture technology are the main subcriterias for each criteria of environment and economic if the carbon capture technology implemented in Indonesia.
