Executive Director Foreword

Executive Director of Indonesia CCS Center Dr. Belladonna Troxylon Maulianda, Phd, P.Eng

Welcome to The 4th International and Indonesia Carbon Capture and Storage Forum 2026 on 26 and 27 August 2026 at Hotel Mulia Senayan Jakarta.

As Executive Director of ICCSC, I am proud to convene this forum at a moment when Indonesia is shifting from frameworks to execution. The next phase will be defined by delivery readiness, investment confidence, and scalable collaboration across stakeholders.

This years theme is Advancing Indonesia CCS Project Deployment: Driving Policy Alignment, Regional Collaboration, and Sustainable Carbon Economy. In 2025 Indonesia achieved key milestones that strengthened both domestic momentum and cross border potential. Progress accelerated through policy and licensing developments, targeted engagement with government leadership, and international cooperation that expanded the practical pathway for cross border CCS and carbon market integrity.

To scale CCS, we must focus on delivery readiness. This means clearer end to end permitting, stronger MRV credibility and environmental safeguards, transport and storage preparedness, and financing structures that match project realities. ICCSC will continue to work with ministries and agencies to support permit acceleration, cross border environmental permitting, and carbon credit activation. We will also support industry roadmaps for CCU and CCUS and the policy instruments needed to move from pilots to scalable deployment.

Thank you for your trust and participation. I look forward to the partnerships formed here and the real project progress we will deliver together.

Sincerely,

Dr. Belladonna Troxylon Maulianda, Phd, P.Eng
Executive Director of Indonesia CCS Center
