South Korea and Indonesia are strengthening ties through a Special Comprehensive Strategic Partnership focused on the green economy. The collaboration targets electric vehicle production, battery supply chains, and the development of critical mineral resources to reduce industrial dependence on volatile global markets. A key component of the agreement is the exploration of carbon capture and storage (CCS) and transboundary carbon storage. By leveraging Indonesia's geological storage potential and Korea's industrial technology, both nations aim to decarbonize heavy industries like steel and cement.
