Abatement Cost Cuve:
LULUCF and Peat
Farhan Helmy
International Workshop on Forest Carbon Emission
Jakarta, 3-5 March 2015
|
Outline
Background and Context
Update on LULUCF and peat
emissions
2030 GHG emission outlook
Emission abatement opportunities
1
GHG Abatement Cost Curve was build in the context of the need of a
fact based assessment to encourage low emission development
scenarios

Fact-based assessment and exercises at national and sub-national
level
• Indonesia Climate Change Sectoral Roadmap (ICCSR, Bappenas, 2009)
• Green Paper: Economic and Fiscal Policy Strategies for Climate Change
Mitigation in Indonesia, Ministry of Finance (2009)
• Indonesia’s GHG Abatement Cost Curve (DNPI, 2010)
• Low Carbon Growth Strategy (LCGS) at Provincial Level (DNPI, 2010)
• Low Carbon Development Options (DNPI, MoF and the World Bank, 2010)
• Urban LEDS (ICLEI, UNDP)

National Policy Framework and Achievements
• National and Regional Action Plans (RAN/RAD GRK)
• National GHG Inventory System (SIGN)
• Climate Financing and Investment: Indonesia Climate Change Trust Fund
(ICCTF), 2009; Fiscal instrument to support GHG Emission Reduction
implementation at national/sub-national level, 2012; ther climate financing and
investment (JCM, PMR, underway)

UPDATE ON BUSINESS-AS-USUAL FIGURES
Much new research and reports have been published since the GHG
Cost Curve report was released in 2009
The Government of Indonesia issued
several reports related to climate
change…
…while national and international publications have been
advancing the methodology for carbon calculations

Six abatement opportunities should be prioritized (548 MtCO2e by 2030
1 Spatial planning and land use
optimization (134 MtCO2e)
Classify high-carbon forest and
peatland into conservation area,
and subsequently release lowcarbon stock area for economic
activities
4 Sustainable logging
practices (48 MtCO2e)
Reduce forest degradation through
RIL and enrichment planting
practices, and reduce the need for
plantation expansion through yield
improvement
134 MtCO2e
2 Forest and peat moratorium
(91 MtCO2e)
Extend forest and peat
moratorium to indefinite time to
protect HCV areas
3 Peatland management
(141 MtCO2e)
Slow the emission from degraded
peatlands by re-wetting or replanting damaged areas and by
establishing a fire management
system
5 Improvement in local
community practices
(76 MtCO2e)
Reduce slash&burn by providing
land) tenure, livelihood training,
education and awareness, and
disincentives for forest clearance
6 Afforestation and
reforestation (54 MtCO2e )
Conduct reforestation in lessattractive areas for longterm, permanent carbon sink
15
EMISSION ABATEMENT OPPORTUNITIES
548 MtCO2e could be abated in 2030 by implementation of 6 different
abatement levers
