Indonesia electric vehicles

There are signs of sharpening strategic competition in technology-intensive sectors such as battery manufacturing, clean energy, and data centers.

The promotion of electric vehicles must take place in tandem with efforts to reduce the overall number of cars on Indonesian roads.

President Joko Widodo is hoping to transform Indonesia into a leading manufacturer of batteries and electric vehicles.

If the government falls short of its ambitious EV adoption targets, it won't be for lack of effort.
