Accelerating the industry ecosystem with actionable know-how to transit to net zero
Indonesia, 19 December 2022 – ERM sees the urgency for Indonesia to bring G20’s sustainability
agenda forward. As a partner to Indonesia Net Zero Summit 2022: Industrial Decarbonization
at All Cost, held in Nusa Dua Bali, Indonesia, last November, ERM sees positive response from
the Indonesian business communities in decarbonizing the industry.
Over 1.000 people from 30 countries registered for the summit to engage in discussions that
would fuel Indonesia’s advancement to achieve net zero. Hosted by KADIN Net Zero Hub, the
event was a chance for both national and multinational companies to address and discuss
challenges, opportunities, and the current progress of Indonesia’s transition towards a climateresilient
future.
Following the successful summit, ERM collaborates with Kadin Net Zero to help enable and
accelerate the industry ecosystem with actionable know-how to transit to net zero.
ERM also participated in the BritCham Indonesia in partnership with The British Embassy Jakarta in organising a bilateral side event during the B20 Summit in Bali. This event brings together UK and Indonesian business leaders and ministers to discuss opportunities for enhanced UK-Indonesia partnership across priority B20 sectors including finance and infrastructure, sustainability, and global trade and investment in a post-pandemic world.
ERM is the trusted global pure-play sustainability consultancy, established more than fifty years
ago, supporting various sectors such as technology, energy, hydrogen, finance, banking and
insurance, chemical, manufacturing, mining or metals. For the past two decades, ERM has
championed notable environmental and social impact in Indonesia.
“The Indonesia Net Zero Summit 2022 calls for an urgent system-wide transformation, which
includes our industrial system, our business system, and all the way to our company’s internal
system,” Muhammad Yusrizki, Chairman of KADIN Net Zero Hub, underlined. The summit raises
the urgency for collective action to build greater ambitions to bring the industrial sector
towards the Paris Agreement pathway and, ultimately, to decarbonize value chains across the
industries in Indonesia. On this occasion, companies and organizations who are leading the
national transition came together to turn their net zero commitments into climate actions,
including ERM.
“Countries in the Southeast Asia region have made large strides in directing their growing
economies to secure a low-carbon and sustainable future. Indonesia is the largest economy in
Southeast Asia and has its natural resources as key contributors of economic growth in the
world. The rapidly growing economies of Indonesia and other Southeast Asian countries are
supported largely in pursuit of net zero and sustainable business. Climate change is
fundamentally changing the way we conduct our businesses. Post the B20 and G20 summit in
Bali, it is imperative that businesses address emerging climate and other Environmental-Social-
Governance (ESG) issues holistically. Through the initiatives by B20 Energy, Sustainability and
Climate, both government and businesses will need to collaborate to accelerate orderly and
affordable sustainable energy transition and usage by reducing carbon intensity. This will
enable consumers in Indonesia to access and consume clean and modern energy,” said Setiaji
Hadiprayitno, Country Managing Partner at ERM Indonesia.
“In our partnership with Kadin Net Zero Hub, we aim to accelerate the industry ecosystem
energy transition collaboration and provide the ESG knowledge and actionable know-how to
the industries in Indonesia. ERM will continue to work closely with our clients from various
industries such as technology, energy, hydrogen, chemical, manufacturing, mining, oil, metals,
banking and financial sectors in Indonesia, to journey towards safe and seamless net zero
transition,” added Setiaji.
