- The government is planning to introduce new electrical power tariffs across 13 categories of non-subsidized customers of PT PLN (Persero) by next year. Moreover, according to the Director-General of Electrical Power, Rida Mulyana, the tariff adjustments will be implemented in accordance with the initial provisions set under 2021 and will take the gradual decrease in the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic into account.
- The government has also stated that the electrical power tariff for non-subsidized customers may fluctuate on a three-monthly basis, dependent on the following three factors at the least: 1) Currency exchange rates; 2) World crude-oil price; and 3) Inflation.
- The government has been holding back on the introduction of new tariffs given the reduced purchasing power of Indonesian citizens during the pandemic. Furthermore, discussions with other sectors of the economy will still be required prior to the introduction of any adjusted tariffs. (ANT)
