Briefings

Indonesian energy minister Bahlil Lahadalia stated that the country is unlikely to export electricity soon due to strong domestic demand. This conclusion follows Singapore's conditional approval for firms to import low-carbon power from Indonesia, which had previously been a key export target.

Key points

• Indonesia's Coordinating Minister for Downstreaming and Energy Transition Bahlil Lahadalia explicitly stated the nation is unlikely to export electricity in the near future.
• Singapore had previously granted conditional approvals for firms to import low-carbon electricity from Indonesia, creating a precedent for potential future exports.

Context

The minister's statement addresses a major trade concern, noting that Singapore's prior approval for low-carbon imports suggests Indonesia remains a potential export partner despite current domestic demand.

Limitations

The minister did not name any specific country as the primary export destination, and the evidence does not provide dates, quantities, or specific economic impacts of the export policy.
