Indonesia PLN electricity operations
Entities: PT PLN (Persero) · Koperasi Desa Merah Putih · Salatiga · Yogyakarta · Kodim 0730/Gunungkidul
Overview
Following the July 12‑13 load‑shedding event, PLN continued routine maintenance, including a 4½‑hour outage on 16 July in Semarang Selatan and brief morning cuts in Salatiga (20‑23 July) and Bali’s Gianyar and Klungkung (21 July). The West Java unit’s CSR programme supplied multimedia kits to over 17 500 households. In Jakarta, a 50 % “add‑on power” discount for low‑voltage customers ran 14‑27 July, while East Java’s “Tambah Daya” promotion offered a 50 % waiver of connection fees for capacity upgrades up to 7 700 VA, open to customers with existing ratings of 450–5 500 VA who registered before 1 July and completed a token purchase.
PLN scheduled a maintenance shutdown in Sorong City on 17 July (13:30‑15:30 WIT), affecting Jalan Arfak, the Belagri Hotel area, Jalan Kuda Laut and Bukit Baru, with advisories to charge devices and adjust business activity. Sector‑wide, PT Elnusa Petrofin upgraded LPG distribution infrastructure and Greenvolt Power Indonesia promoted zero‑CapEx solar financing.
Regionally, the ASEAN Power Grid initiative received a joint pledge from the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank to unlock private investment and accelerate construction of a fully integrated network by 2045; the grid currently supplies about 7.7 GW and the financing follows the 2024 Lao‑Thailand‑Malaysia‑Singapore integration project that doubled export capacity to 200 MW. Earlier talks also highlighted a prospective Indonesia‑Singapore pact to export roughly 3.4 GW of low‑carbon power by 2035.
In Yogyakarta, PLN coordinated with Kodim 0730/Gunungkidul to ready electricity for the Merah Putih village cooperatives to be inaugurated in August 2026 for the nation’s 81st independence anniversary. Meanwhile, the UP3 Salatiga unit announced three‑phase line maintenance from 28‑30 July each morning 09:00‑12:00, urging residents to avoid construction near lines and keep bills current.
