        "summary": "Banten Governor Andra Soni has instructed his administration to implement energy efficiency measures, including reducing electricity and fossil fuel consumption in government offices, in response to a Ministry of Home Affairs circular on transforming civil servant work culture. He emphasised simple actions like turning off lights and air conditioners when leaving rooms, amid global pressures on energy prices and economic uncertainty, while the province maps out a shift to electric vehicles for public services. Despite these efficiencies, Soni stressed that government programmes must deliver tangible benefits to the public, supported by adaptive, digital-based work practices to maintain optimal public services.",

He has\ninstructed that offices and the environment of the Banten Provincial\nGovernment save on electricity as well as the use of fossil fuels.<\/p>\n<p>According to Andra, the policy follows Circular Letter from the\nMinistry of Home Affairs Number 800.1.5\/3349\/SJ of 2026 on the\nTransformation of Civil Servant Work Culture in the Local Government\nEnvironment. Andra Soni also reminded of the importance of energy saving\nin the office environment as part of the new civil servant work\nculture.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cElectricity use must be a concern. Ensure that when leaving a room,\nlights and AC are turned off. This is a simple step, but it has a\nsignificant impact in responding to the current global situation,\u201d he\nsaid on Friday (17\/4\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the current global situation is putting pressure on\nenergy prices as well as world economic uncertainty that affects\nregions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur step is to save energy use as well as efforts to efficiency\nrelated to activities that can still be postponed, in order to optimise\nprogrammes that have a direct impact on the community,\u201d said Andra.<\/p>\n<p>The Banten Provincial Government is also mapping official vehicles\nand studying the transformation of fossil fuel vehicles to electric\nvehicles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCurrently, we do not have any procurement related to electric\nvehicles. But one day, it is a certainty. Especially for public interest\nvehicles like garbage trucks that are already decades old,\u201d he\nrevealed.<\/p>\n<p>Even though there is efficiency, he emphasised that every government\nprogramme must provide real benefits to the community and be supported\nby an adaptive and digital-based work pattern.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd ensure that public services continue to run optimally in any\ncondition,\u201d he said.<\/p>",
