Energy–economy–environment sustainability is critical in shaping energy policies, especially developing countries facing shortages. Investment infrastructure, such as under the China–Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), provides an opportunity to explore how investments impact economic growth, environmental quality, and security. This study examines energy, economic, effects of CPEC’s Pakistan, covering a range power sources, including coal, hydro, solar, wind, nuclear energy. Utilizing data from 31 CPEC projects employing GTAP-E-Power model, this research assesses these impacts through seven scenarios, comprehensively analyzing heterogeneity different sources.

Abstract For over 100 years, there have been protests against coal mining for its displacement of local people, accidents, land subsidence, and respiratory illnesses. Complaints arose coal-fired power plants by citizens in many different places before was awareness climate change. Similarly, oil drilling extraction caused strong such as the Niger Delta Ecuador last 60 without mentioning effects on Opposition today peoples to liquified natural gas Cabo Delgado, Mozambique, is perhaps not yet linked global impact CO2 methane emissions. Many manifestations an environmentalism poor Indigenous extraction, transport, burning fossil fuels were related However, mid-1990s, grievances industry started be change claims ecological debt. Proposals Oilwatch after 1995 numerous “leave underground” conflicts (collected Atlas Environmental Justice, envjustice.org) display slogans soil” hole,” linking environmental justice movements.

This research aims to analyze the potential for continuity of Indonesia-China relations in mining and energy sectors after 2024 elections. By using concepts foreign policy developing countries change continuity, author argues that results elections are unlikely relations. Mining cooperation between two has provided great benefits Indonesia. Currently, China is still Indonesia's largest coal-fired power plant (CFPP) investor, with a total supply 12,949 MW 1,800 under construction. Furthermore, China's downstream bolstered domestic production capabilities, enabling it produce semi-finished mineral products like briquettes, coke, semi-coke, upgraded coal, ferronickel, nickel pig iron, matter at elevated prices. The construction smelters large-scale industrial areas also made Indonesia an important player global chain, controlling 48.48% world's production. We need keep mind country, which undeniably influential process determining strategies goals. As economic growth through investment policies will be government's main priority. Therefore, transition from President Jokowi next government likely only form pattern intensification; is, not sectors. step followed by strengthening goals, defining scope, maximize effort strengthen position chain.
