Analysis of electricity generation and clean coal technology development as greenhouse gas control strategy in Indonesia / Muhammad Heikal Hasan

As Indonesian economic grow, electrical energy demand increased significantly over the last years. It is known that electrical industry is one of the largest sectors who contributed to the global CO2 emission besides transportation. Highly dependent in coal, fuel oil and diesel are the main cause...
