PT PLN (Persero) provides convenience for people who want to travel by electric car to celebrate the Christmas and New Year 2023 (Nataru) holidays. This is because PLN has provided Electric POM or Public Electric Vehicle Charging Station (SPKLU) spread across various parts of Indonesia.

PLN President Director Darmawan Prasodjo said PLN had alerted 569 SPKLU units spread across 237 locations throughout Indonesia.

"Homecomers or people who want to vacation in electric vehicles now don't have to worry about running out of batteries. Because hundreds of SPKLUs are ready to provide the best service," Darmawan said in his statement, Thursday, December 22.

In this Christmas and New Year holidays, the Java Toll Road is expected to be the most widely used toll road for the community. Even when crossing this toll road, electric car users don't have to worry because PLN also provides SPKLU in the rest area.

There are nine SPKLUs available at the Java Toll rest area, namely at Rest Area KM 519 A (Solo-Ngawi), Rest Area KM 519 B (Ngawi-Solo), Rest Area KM 389 B (Batang-Semarang), Rest Area KM 379 A (Semarang-Batang), Rest Area KM 626 B (Kertosono-Madiun), Rest Area KM 207 A (Palikanci), Rest Area 208 B (Palikanci), Rest Area KM 10.6 Jagorawi Toll Road and Rest Area KM 6 (Jakarta-Cikampek).

Electric car users are also no longer having trouble finding SPKLU. This is because PLN provides convenience through the PLN Mobile application. Through PLN Mobile, people can find the nearest SPKLU location.

To do this, electric car users simply open the PLN Mobile application. Then, select the Electric Vehicle feature. After that, several options will appear, including Exchange Battery, SPKLU and SPLU. Electric car users can then select SPKLU.

After that, PLN Mobile will display a number of SPKLUs that are closest to the location of electric car users. Not only that, this application also provides directional directions to SPKLU locations. Thus, electric car users will find it easier to find the existence of SPKLU.

"PLN continues to carry out transformations to improve customer service. One of them is with features that support this electric vehicle ecosystem," said Darmawan.
