JAKARTA - The government is increasingly determined in carrying out its commitment to make an energy transition, one of which is the diversification program in the use of BBM to Battery-Based Electric Motorized Vehicles (KBLBB) and gas fuels (BBG).
The Director General of Oil and Gas at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, Tutuka Ariadji, said that the application of BBG to vehicles such as cars and motorcycles would not be implemented considering that Indonesia was seeking to use electric vehicles.
"We will only apply it to large vehicles such as trucks and other commercial vehicles, considering that their large size must also require a large battery," he said, Thursday, January 20.
He continued, his party offered the tagline to the public 'cheap and fast service' because later trucks would no longer need to queue because special SPBGs would be provided on the usual routes.
To continue developing electric vehicles, the government through PLN has targeted to gradually increase the number of general electric vehicle charging stations (SPLU) and general electric vehicle charging stations (SPKLU) in line with the government's ambition to enlarge the national electric vehicle market.
This policy is contained in Presidential Regulation (Perpres) Number 55 of 2019 concerning the Acceleration of the Battery-Based Electric Motor Vehicle Program for Road Transportation.
The Ministry of Industry (Kemenperin) even targets 3 million units of the population of electric vehicles in Indonesia by 2030 with a target of reducing CO2 levels to reach 4.6 million tons.
