Switzerland – President Director and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Bakrie & Brothers (BNBR), Anindya Novyan Bakrie was a speaker at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland.
On this occasion, Anindya Bakrie explained that Indonesia has great potential for energy transition. Anindya Bakrie has attended this annual event for 14 consecutive years.
"The WEF agenda is attended by state leaders to world business people. Therefore, I am very enthusiastic about welcoming WEF," Bakrie said through his official Instagram @Anindyabakrie as quoted on Friday.
In this WEF agenda, Indonesia conveys a message that wants to be heard globally because Indonesia is the leader of ASEAN and a member of the G20.
"At this WEF, I am also a speaker in one of the interesting sessions with the theme 'Building Trust through an Equitable, Fair and Inclusive Energy Transition'," he explained.
In the session, Bakrie discussed equality, justice and inclusiveness that emerged as important components to accelerate an effective energy transition. Both at the individual, local, national and global levels.
"WEF uses the energy triangle framework, which highlights the three core dimensions of a balanced energy system: sustainability, security and equity," Bakrie remarked.
He said the topic was derived from discussions at WEF 2024 themed 'Rebuilding Trust' where collaboration, cooperation, in a divided world was discussed.
This is caused by conflict, growth and employment, energy and environmental issues, and the development of artificial intelligence (AI).
Equality, justice and inclusiveness, along with sustainability and security, are key to a successful energy transition, which can create new jobs. It can also improve livelihoods and empower individuals, communities and society.
"At the forum I also explained Indonesia's great potential in the energy transition, where above ground there is renewable energy potential, below ground there are critical minerals, and all around there is biodiversity that can help accelerate decarbonization," Bakrie concluded.
