Sumber energi utama di Indonesia, khususnya dalam sektor industri dan transportasi, masih berasal dari sumber energi fosil seperti gas alam, batubara, dan minyak bumi. Ketergantungan ini menyebabkan peningkatan emisi gas rumah kaca, termasuk CO2, NOx, dan partikel PM2.5. Hal ini berdampak langsung pada kualitas udara dan kesehatan masyarakat. Studi deskriptif kualitatif menggunakan data sekunder yang diperoleh dari sumber resmi seperti Badan Pusat Statistik. Analisis menunjukkan bahwa konsumsi bahan bakar fosil yang tinggi menyebabkan penurunan kualitas udara di kota-kota besar Indonesia. Energi terbarukan, seperti bioetanol dan biogas yang diperoleh dari biomassa dan limbah pertanian, memiliki potensi besar untuk menjadi solusi alternatif yang berkelanjutan dan ramah lingkungan.

The transportation and logistics sector plays a vital role in supporting national economic growth. This study aims to analyze the effect of inflation and sales growth on the financial performance of transportation and logistics companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period 2014–2024. The research method used is a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis. The research sample consists of 7 companies selected through purposive sampling, resulting in a total of 77 observations. Financial performance is measured using the return on asset (ROA) indicator, while inflation and sales growth data are obtained from official sources. The results of the partial test indicate that inflation does not significantly affect financial performance, while sales growth has a positive and significant impact. These findings indicate that companies in this sector are able to manage the impact of inflation efficiently, but sales growth remains the primary factor driving profitability. The coefficient of determination shows that 28.8% of the variation in financial performance can be explained by inflation and sales growth. The implications of these research results highlight the importance of sales growth strategies to support financial performance, as well as the need for efficient management in addressing macroeconomic challenges such as inflation. This study provides empirical contributions to managerial decision-making in the transportation and logistics industry, while also filling a research gap in this sector during the post-pandemic period.
