JAKARTA - The Task Force (Satgas) for the Implementation of the State Capital Infrastructure Development (IKN) revealed that it is possible that road infrastructure in IKN Nusantara will adopt and be built with the concept of electric charging lane technology that can help charge electric vehicle batteries.
"It is possible that the streets at IKN will become electric charging lanes," said Head of the IKN Infrastructure Development Task Force Danis Hidayat Sumadilaga in the Hutama Karya ExperTalk webinar in Jakarta, Antara, Thursday, September 8.
Conceptually, electric charging lanes are road infrastructure that may help charge batteries installed in electric vehicles when crossing the road lane.
Danis said that this concept has been running in several countries in the world and many have conducted trials.
"Because there, at IKN later we will talk about electric-powered (vehicle vehicles), no longer vehicles that use fossil fuels," he said.
Many things will also be implemented in the context of smart and sustainable as the concept of IKN Nusantara as a new capital city.
Previously, the Ministry of Transportation revealed that IKN would only use more environmentally friendly vehicles and the use of the latest technology such as autonomous vehicles.
This is also in line with the direction from President Joko Widodo who instructed that the vehicles that will be circulating in IKN are electric vehicles to protect the IKN environment.
However, this is still being coordinated with the relevant Ministries that take care of infrastructure problems as the main support for the circulation of vehicles that are more environmentally friendly.
As additional information, President Joko Widodo had previously instructed that there would no longer be fossil fuel vehicles to be used in IKN.
