High Initial Investment Costs:One of the primary challenges facing the battery energy storage market in Indonesia is the high initial investment required for deployment. The average cost of installing a battery energy storage system can range from IDR 1 billion to IDR 3 billion (USD 70,000 to USD 210,000) per megawatt-hour.
Priority Actions for Market Development: Battery Energy Storage Systems constitute essential infrastructure for Indonesia's energy transition and industrial development objectives. The technology addresses multiple requirements including renewable energy integration, grid stability in fragmented networks, and reliable power for economic activities.
Indonesia's focus on industrial growth creates a demand for reliable power. BESS can offer backup power, improve power quality, and enable cost savings through peak shaving. The Indonesian government recognizes the importance of energy storage.
The growing EV market will necessitate a robust battery ecosystem, including storage solutions for grid integration and charging infrastructure. Indonesia's focus on industrial growth creates a demand for reliable power. BESS can offer backup power, improve power quality, and enable cost savings through peak shaving.
In a continued effort to streamline and strengthen its export governance, the Indonesian government has introduced an updated list of goods prohibited from export. This move is part of a broader push to enhance regulatory clarity and ensure greater alignment across trade and finance policy.
Riding on the global energy transition, Indonesia is aiming to limit exports of the country's raw minerals in order to encourage investment in locally based processing facilities. So far, this strategy seems to be yielding the desired results, with foreign investment rising strongly.
The Indonesian government, through the Ministry of Finance (“ MOF ”), has issued a new regulation to implement the latest export ban policy introduced under Ministry of Trade (“ MOT ”) Regulation No. 9 of 2025 concerning the Third Amendment to MOT Regulation No. 23 of 2023 on Export Policy and Regulation, dated March 6, 2025 (“ MOT Reg. 9/2025 ”).
The Indonesian Ministry of Finance recently introduced significant regulatory changes, redefining the list of goods prohibited from exportation. These changes aim to protect domestic resources and align with broader trade policies.
The agreement was made with other state-owned bodies, such as the Indonesian Battery Corporation, to build the Battery Energy Storage System by 2022. However, no information has yet been revealed about the Battery Energy Storage System's location or specific functions.
Indonesia's First & Largest Containerized Battery Energy Storage System. Off-grid solar energy system at PT Cipta Kridatama equipped with CBESS. The CBESS solar energy system at PT Cipta Kridatama Jambi operates off-grid, making it a reliable, self-sustaining energy source without dependence on the national electricity grid.
As Southeast Asia's largest economy, Indonesia aims to source 23% of its energy from renewables by 2025, with plans to escalate this ratio by 2050. Energy storage systems (ESS) are critical to stabilizing the nation's grid and enabling seamless integration of solar power.
Surabaya is the second largest city in Indonesia with enormous economic potential and will continue to grow. In addition, Surabaya has several advantages, including large energy saving potential, has implemented green building certification, high growth potential of the construction sector, and high capacity and capability of local stakeholders.
