JAKARTA : Indonesia aims to issue emission quotas for some coal-fired power plants within this month as a first step towards creating a mechanism for domestic carbon trading, energy officials said on Tuesday.

"The quota will be set the latest by January 31. After obtaining the quota, business players are required to carry out carbon trading," said energy ministry official Mohamad Priharto Dwinugroho. Power plants that emitted carbon smaller than their quota can trade their remaining allotment with plants whose emissions exceed their quota.
