Indonesia transport electrification strategy

In this strategy document the authors study the promotion of electric mobility in Indonesia. Crucial stakeholders in electric vehicle (EV) issues are identified, along with synergies among nationwide EV initiatives, and policy gaps in the effort to accelerate EV adoption. The authors emphasize the actions and procedures of third parties in support of the government in accelerating the transition to electromobility, aiming to guide non-governmental organizations (NGOs), civic organizations, and philanthropic agencies in their support for the EV transition. The types of EVs considered are battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), including two- and three-wheel vehicles for private and public transportation. Fuel cell EVs, while included in the country’s plans for development of the automotive industry, are not studied because their technology and infrastructure are only beginning to be developed. The authors focus on potential actions by NGOs and philanthropic agencies for advancing EVs in the next three to five years. The information in this document was compiled from discussions and inputs during a strategy development workshop held over three days in September and October 2020, involving participants from national and local government agencies, domestic and international NGOs, academic institutions, and the automobile industry.  Decision makers at high-level have indicated their intention to encourage the adoption of EVs, and several policies and regulations in support of the EV transition have been issued or are in preparation.  But such supportive policies are not yet clear or strong enough to speed the transition, and it may be several years before EVs enter the Indonesian vehicle market in large numbers. Ongoing efforts and investments are needed to maintain the transition. Based on current conditions and inputs from stakeholders, the authors identify seven interventions that can be prioritized for investments from philanthropic agencies. The actions recommended by the authors could be seen as catalysts to help Indonesia achieve its ambition to become an EV hub.
