“…At the same time, there is a global will to shift the energy generation dependence from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydropower [2][3][4]. This is in line with the current global move to fight climate change by promoting the energy production through low-carbon combustion-free energy sources (LCCF) [5]. The utilization of LCCF energy sources has seen continuous growth, at least within the 21st century and is projected to grow further in the coming years [6].…”

“…Such approach has been narrowly related to energy efficiency, energy sovereignty and security, energy matrix diversification, and the reduction of oil dependency and hence greenhouse gas emissions (MEER 2012). Nonetheless, the link between hydropower generation, reservoir' greenhouse gases emissions, climate change, ecosystem services, biodiversity, human wellbeing, socio-ecological conflicts and environmental sustainability has been ultimately overlooked for the sake of sustainable development and economic growth (Fearnside 2014;Hess and Fenrich 2017;Briones-Hidrovo, Uche, and Martínez-gracia 2021;Gasparatos et al 2017;Mendieta-Vicuña and Esparcia 2022). It should bear in mind that BAU-HPO has been aligned with regulations of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Kyoto Protocol's Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), according to which carbon credit is granted to hydropower projects (Fearnside 2013;MEER 2012;Fearnside 2015b).…”

“…Since 2018, West Java Provincial Government has also arranged a plan to revitalize Situ Rawa Kalong as a tourism area. Situ Rawa Kalong, one of the water resources also has a significant role in reducing the climate crisis, and achieving environmental sustainability [3]. For reaching sustainability, the water quality and biophysical conditions of Situ Rawa Kalong are the main components that have been analyzed.…”
