MIIT and Five Departments Promote PV Module Recycling and Use of Recycled Materials in Production

Ciyong Zou, Deputy to the Director General and Managing Director of the Directorate of Technical Cooperation and Sustainable Industrial Development, delivered opening remarks at the Indonesia Critical Minerals Conference & Expo 2026. Mr. Zou noted that with the rapid development of clean energy and digital industries, global demand for critical minerals continues to rise. The role of resource-rich countries in ensuring stable mineral supply has become increasingly vital. Indonesia's transition from raw material extraction to deep processing can serve as a reference for resource-rich countries in the Global South. He noted that Indonesia intends to join forces with partners from all sectors to fully tap the potential of industrial development.
