This figure accounts for 12% of the total estimated annual spending of US$1.8 trillion required for sustainable infrastructure in emerging economies (excluding China) until 2030, as projected by an independent panel in the 2023 G-20 meeting.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The investment encompasses various aspects such as shift away from carbon-intensive industries, boost in renewable energy, enhanced energy efficiency, preservation of forests, and promotion of sustainable land use practices. It also entails strengthening the transportation and energy infrastructure to withstand extreme weather events, cultivating crops resilient to drought, and establishing early warning systems for natural disasters.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Southeast Asia needs green infrastructure<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the root of economic prosperity in Southeast Asia lies infrastructure. However, the region is crippled by a significant annual investment deficit, exceeding US$100 billion, which calls for a substantial increase in private infrastructure investment and shift in investment focus. Having said this, the environmental impacts tied to infrastructure development, including the consumption of natural resources, air and water pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, are becoming increasingly worrisome.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Infrastructure financing to adapt to climate change in developing Indonesia<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is imperative to use innovative financing mechanisms to facilitate climate funding from diverse sources and stakeholders. For instance, government-linked and other state-owned enterprises in Indonesia should have the ability to issue green bonds to supplement the financing of green infrastructure projects, which currently rely on government budget. Besides, multilateral development banks can offer capital loss guarantees to hasten the growth of domestic green bond markets in Indonesia, as well as in other countries.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Various international bodies have presented estimates on global financing needs for climate adaptation, ranging between $28.7 billion and $90.0 billion until 2020 and between $247.2 billion and $385.2 billion until 2030, according to the Fiscal Policy Agency (2019). But there is no official data on Indonesia&#8217;s climate-related financing requirements. Indonesia\u2019s targets, which require significant funding, depend on the objectives outlined in its Nationally Determined Contributions. The country estimates a $247.2 billion requirement to achieve its emission-reduction target.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1746dd8 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1746dd8\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-dcf4169\" data-id=\"dcf4169\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d7d53b5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d7d53b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>Table 1.<\/b> <b>Advantages and disadvantages of financing options in Indonesia<\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-46ffe6d elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"46ffe6d\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0724ab2\" data-id=\"0724ab2\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b4e6be6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b4e6be6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.16.0 - 14-09-2023 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"774\" height=\"396\" src=\"https:\/\/gunungcapital.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-24-092356.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-3113\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunungcapital.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-24-092356.png 774w, https:\/\/gunungcapital.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-24-092356-300x153.png 300w, https:\/\/gunungcapital.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-24-092356-768x393.png 768w, https:\/\/gunungcapital.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Screenshot-2024-01-24-092356-18x9.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" title=\"\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-bac27de elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"bac27de\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-32ac450\" data-id=\"32ac450\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bcd2229 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bcd2229\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>Financing opportunities\u00a0<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The increasing global awareness on climate change has broadened the financing opportunities for climate-related projects.

While this heightened infrastructure development is a positive, it remains susceptible to climate change. The country needs to integrate climate-resilient measures into its infrastructure strategies. This calls for the development of a robust policy framework.
