Project description

Indonesia's methane inventory faces critical data and methodological gaps across agriculture, energy, and waste sectors. Accurate measurement is essential for meeting UNFCCC and Global Methane Pledge commitments.

Carbon Limits conducts comprehensive gap analysis comparing national practices against IPCC Guidelines and international best practices. The work evaluates data sources, measurement technologies, and institutional arrangements.

The assessment identifies priority emission sources in rice cultivation, livestock management, oil and gas operations, and waste treatment where improved quantification methods enhance reporting accuracy.

The analysis produces a phased roadmap addressing data gaps, methodological limitations, and capacity constraints. Recommendations strengthen emission factors, monitoring protocols, and inter-agency coordination for credible investment decisions.

This supports Indonesia's Ministry of Environment and Forestry, Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, and agencies responsible for national greenhouse gas reporting.
