JAKARTA - Increasing energy needs and global dynamics that affect supply, saving energy is an important step that people in Indonesia can take today.

Not only does it have an impact on household spending, energy-saving habits also contribute to maintaining the availability of national energy so that it remains stable and sustainable.

On the other hand, efforts to maintain energy supply continue to be carried out by various parties, including national energy companies which ensure that the public's needs are still met.

In the dynamic global geopolitical conditions, strategies such as optimizing domestic production and diversifying energy sources are important steps to maintain energy resilience.

"We continue to monitor global developments and make various efforts to maintain energy supply in the country. Through production optimization and diversification strategies, currently the national energy supply is in a safe condition, and operations are running smoothly," said Vice President of Corporate Communication PT Pertamina (Persero) Muhammad Baron in a statement to VOI, Friday, April 17.

Energy distribution is also supported by various strategic logistics infrastructure, including fuel storage and distribution terminals which play an important role in maintaining supply in densely populated areas.

One of the main facilities is the Integrated Terminal Jakarta which is the mainstay of fuel and LPG distribution in the DKI Jakarta area and its surroundings. The supply for this terminal comes mostly from domestic refineries.

"Most of the supply of fuel and LPG for the Integrated Terminal Jakarta comes from Pertamina's refineries, namely the Balongan Refinery Unit and the Cilacap Refinery Unit," explained the Integrated Terminal Manager of Jakarta PT Pertamina Patra Niaga, I Nyoman Adi Pradana.

In addition to maintaining supply, the public is also invited to play an active role in using energy wisely for long-term sustainability.

"One important thing is Energy Wise Behavior, starting from now and from the smallest scope of the environment, let's use energy according to needs for sustainability in the future," explained Muhammad Baron.

Efforts to maintain energy stability are also accompanied by a commitment to ensure that distribution runs smoothly and prices remain under control. As a concrete step, the public can start implementing energy-saving habits in daily life.

Citing the HuffPost website, some simple ways to do this include turning off electrical equipment when not in use, taking advantage of natural light during the day, using energy-saving devices, and reducing the use of private vehicles by switching to public transportation or sharing vehicles.

A number of these small habits, if done consistently, can have a big impact on overall energy savings.

"We are committed to maintaining the stability of the national energy supply and price, as well as ensuring that services to the community continue to run optimally," said Baron.
