An assessment of energy policy impacts on achieving Sustainable Development Goal 7 in Indonesia

Energy Scenarios towards Achieving SDG7 and the Interlinkages with Other Sustainable Development Goals: A Systematic Review

“…Developing a framework by utilizing a comprehensive approach for analysing and comparing of various benefits of clean cooking solutions towards Health in (sustainable development goal 3), gender (sustainable development goal 5) and climate change (sustainable development goal 13) using costbenefit analysis [6]. In Indonesia, evaluating and examining the effectiveness of energy laws and regulations with their contribution to achieve the SDGs' energy targets [7]. Performing the analytic framework of feminist political economy approach for exploring the potential of access to electricity to empower the women [8].…”

“…One of the UN-SD goals are accessing "sustainable, affordable, modern, and reliable energy for every single one in this world" SDG 7, which has a lot of synergies and is in line with the rest of Sustainable Development Goals [4,5]. Sustainable development goal 7 has three main goals as follows: Firstly, universal energy access by modern energy or electricity which realizes the role of clean cooking for addressing and ensuring the sustainable energy services and ending the energy poverty for humankinds [6,7].…”

“…By income growth in SDG8 and majority who use solid fuels may live under the poverty in sustainable development goal 1 because they cannot shift to the modern one. At the same time, modern energy is not yet to target SDG 7 [7,13]. Across the MENA region, the heat sector and electricity are the highest and main source of CO2 emissions with about 71% and 65% demands from fossil fuels which, have a contributed significantly to the climate change crisis and the prices of electricity across many countries are high, and generally, the tax of energy is also high [14].…”

“…Across the MENA region, the heat sector and electricity are the highest and main source of CO2 emissions with about 71% and 65% demands from fossil fuels which, have a contributed significantly to the climate change crisis and the prices of electricity across many countries are high, and generally, the tax of energy is also high [14]. Additionally, there is no increase in renewable energy share and there is the declination in energy intensity annual rate which measuring the energy efficiency to be 2.4%, which cannot reach 2.6% of the target by 2030 [7]. However, even renewables resources have many benefits in the energy system and certain challenges such as negative prices from the generated electricity from wind and solar which affect SDG 7, 8,12, and 13 [9].…”

“…Therefore, this systematic review develops based on examination and analyses of energy scenario to achieve the targets of SDG 7 and interlinks same with other SDGs by addressing the co-benefits for ending poverty in (SDG1), food security in sustainable development goal 2, health in goal 3, education in (SDG4), gender in (goal 5), water in (sustainable development goal 6), energy in (SDG7), economic growth in (SDG8), building resilient, industrial, innovation in (SDG9), equality in (SDG10), cities in (SDG11), consumption in (SDG12), climate change in (sustainable development goal13). The findings and results are utilized for discussing the implications [6,7,9]. This research is formulated as follows: this part is discussing the background of energy scenario with some existing constraints and importance of the energy to SDGs and what is the main aim of this review.…”
