Abstrak

This study examines the social and economic impacts of green technology in the context
of sustainable development in Indonesia. The main objective of the study is to explore the
extent to which green technology can contribute to community welfare and environmental
preservation, as well as to understand the challenges faced in its implementation. The
methodology used is a literature study with a qualitative descriptive approach, which
includes an analysis of literature related to green technology, green economy, and
sustainable development. This study uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR)
approach to compile and analyse various data sources from scientific journals, research
reports, and policy documents.
The main findings show that green technology, such as renewable energy and efficient
waste management, has great potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve
resource use efficiency, and create new jobs. This study also highlights the importance of
sustainable investment and policy support from the government to ensure the
implementation of green technology. These findings are in line with other studies that
state that innovation in green technology can strengthen economic resilience and provide
broad social benefits. The uniqueness of this research lies in its deep focus on the
Indonesian context, which has specific geographical, demographic, and economic
challenges. By integrating social and economic perspectives, this research provides
comprehensive insights into how green technology can be effectively applied to achieve
sustainable development goals, as well as identifying strategic steps that need to be
taken to overcome obstacles in its implementation.
