<p>This study develops a system dynamics model to analyze Indonesia’s transition from fossil-fueled electricity generation to renewables and its effects on residential energy affordability. The model integrates energy supply, demand, and fiscal modules to capture the interplay among generation mix, pricing, subsidies, and household income and affordability index for different consumer electricity segments, categorized as 450 VA and 900 VA recipients’ group. Three policy scenarios—Business-as-Usual, Coal Phase Down, and Coal Phase Out—are simulated from 2020 to 2060. Results indicate that while an accelerated shift toward renewable energy supports national decarbonization targets, it also tends to increase electricity generation costs and prices. A rapid coal phase-out could impose higher tariff burdens and diminish affordability for vulnerable households if subsidy reforms are not carefully managed. These insights suggest that a balanced, gradual approach is needed—one that supports renewable capacity expansion while providing targeted measures to protect low-income consumers during the transition.</p>

<p>Carbon emission is a critical challenge for Indonesia in reconciling economic development with environmental sustainability. Although Presidential Regulation No. 98 of 2021 sets ambitious emission reduction targets, carbon emission disclosure (CED) remains voluntary for most companies. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the influence of ownership structure, specifically foreign, institutional, managerial, and state ownership, on carbon emission disclosure, and also explore the moderating role of women in leadership positions. The analysis was based on panel data from 131 companies in the energy, basic materials, and industrial sectors over the period of 2019 to 2023, leading to a total of 655 company-year observations. The results showed that all types of ownership structure had a significant positive effect on carbon emission disclosure. However, the presence of women in leadership roles significantly weakened the relationship between foreign and managerial ownership and carbon emission disclosure, while it had no significant moderating effect on institutional and state ownership. A robustness test using Presidential Regulation No. 98 of 2021 confirms the model’s stability, as key relationships remain unaffected. This reinforced the reliability of the results and deepened the understanding of how ownership structure and gender diversity influence corporate environmental transparency in the context of voluntary carbon emission disclosure.</p>
