• In 2012, Yogyakarta became an ASEAN pilot city to demonstrate a systematic and standardized methodology to measure and monitor citywide carbon emissions. The pilot will serve as a model for other ASEAN cities, and is expected to encourage them to adopt a systematic approach for inventorying GHG emissions and the use of tools such as the HEAT+ software, allowing ASEAN cities to become better equipped to measure and monitor carbon emissions and, in turn, develop effective strategies for low carbon economic growth and climate resiliency
