Indonesia announces bold 320 GWh distributed battery storage plan
The new initiative features plans for 1 MW solar minigrids tied with 4 MWh of accompanying battery energy storage, to be deployed across 80,000 villages, alongside 20
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.
minimum battery production capacity of approximately 36.8 GWh to meet its EV targets. Currently, the country has only 10 GWh of NMC battery cell capacity (from PT HLI Green Power) and 100 MWh of LFP battery cells (from PT Gotion Green Energy Solutions Indone
The new initiative features plans for 1 MW solar minigrids tied with 4 MWh of accompanying battery energy storage, to be deployed across 80,000 villages, alongside 20 GW of centralized solar power plants. The Indonesian government has revealed a new initiative aiming to deploy 100 GW of solar.
energy (VRE) sources such as solar and wind, ensuring grid stability and reliability.However, despite Indonesia's wealth of mineral resources, a clear misma ch remains between current battery production capacity and projected national demand. For example, assuming the average 4W electric SUV requires a 39 kWh battery4, Indonesia would need a
