Justice element in just energy transition partnership decarbonization policy: A conceptual legal analysis

Abstract

Decarbonization is an essential strategy in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, Indonesia committed to adhere to the Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP) to pursue its climate targets by establishing energy transition targets for decarbonization. Nevertheless, the “Just” element in JETP remains unclear. Therefore, this paper aims to examine the justice aspect in JETP through a conceptual legal analysis of justice. This research method is a normative legal analysis conducted by examining legal theories, concepts, principles, laws, and regulations as primary data, with literary sources as secondary data analyzed through a conceptual approach. The result shows that there are several targets and current directives of JETP that may not fulfill the just aspect and are incoherent to the concept of justice. In conclusion, the JETP shall improve its directives and targets prior to its implementation by involving regional government and society as key sectors to ensure a just energy transition.
