Capacity for Indonesian Reduction of Carbon in Land Use and Energy
Funder: USAID
Project Timeline: October 1, 2011 - March 31, 2016
Country: Indonesia
Program Area: Clean Energy & Circular Economy
Indonesia has become the largest palm oil producer in the world, making the industry a vital cog in the nation’s economy. Additional economic and environmental benefits are possible if the liquid waste generated during the palm oil production process is used to make renewable biogas. The USAID-funded Capacity for Indonesian Reduction of Carbon in Land Use and Energy (CIRCLE) program helps the owners of palm oil mills produce renewable energy and improve the overall sustainability of their facilities.
