Tapping into the limited but existing opportunities for deploying energy storage systems (ESS) is vital for expanding their role in Indonesiaʼs power sector. At present, the greatest potential for ESS deployment lies in smaller and/or isolated systems, as well as in industrial or large scale commercial solar rooftop PV with BESS.
The facility’s importance is underscored by Indonesia’s limited oil reserves, which currently last only 21 days. Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Bahlil Lahadalia emphasized the urgency of increasing storage capacity to safeguard the nation’s energy resilience.

As the Oliver Wyman study notes, neither Indonesia’s grid nor its storage infrastructure is currently ready to absorb significantly more renewables. Long-Duration Energy Storage (LDES) is crucial for balancing supply and demand over days and seasons, enabling a reliable supply of Indonesia renewable energy.
Most goods imported to Indonesia are subject to import duty. What are the prerequisites of becoming an importer in Indonesia, which import taxes apply, and how to calculate customs duty and import tax in Indonesia? The applicable import duties depend on the type of product you want to import to Indonesia.
By navigating these regulations adeptly, businesses can optimize their import processes and enhance their competitiveness in the Indonesian market. What is import duty? For imported goods valued at less than or equal to USD $1,500, Indonesia applies a straightforward import duty rate of 7.5% 1.
* The 0% import duty rate applies until 31 December 2025. As a commitment to liberalising trade, the Indonesian government is progressively lowering import duty rates on most products. Higher duty rates remain to protect certain industries and goods regarded as sensitive for security or social and cultural reasons.
The import tax-free threshold has significantly decreased from USD 75 to USD 3 per recipient and shipment. Under the revised regulations, all taxable imported goods in Indonesia now incur a 7.5% import duty and a 10% value-added tax. This represents a notable decrease from the previous 10% income tax, value-added tax, and import duty.
