For Indonesia today, batteries are no longer viewed merely as\nsupporting components but as a crucial foundation for the nation\u2019s\nenergy future. Supported by nickel reserves of around 1.6 million\ntonnes, along with rising investments in the electric vehicle sector and\nbattery energy storage systems (BESS), Indonesia is emerging as a\nsignificant player in the global lithium-ion battery supply chain.<\/p>\n
Additionally, Indonesia\u2019s battery market in 2024 is valued at\napproximately US$1.45 billion and is projected to continue growing until\n2030 with an annual growth rate of 23.7 per cent. The BESS market is\nestimated to increase from US$4.36 billion to US$15.82 billion by 2032.\nTo support this energy transition, the government will focus on\naccelerating programmes through a target of 100 gigawatts of solar power\nplant development to hasten energy independence and the use of clean\nenergy.<\/p>\n
This momentum underpins the return of The Battery Show Asia \u2013\nIndonesia 2026, which will take place from 2-5 September 2026 at Jakarta\nInternational Expo (JIExpo) Kemayoran, as part of the larger Indonesia\nEnergy & Engineering (IEE) Series 2026. Entering its second edition,\nthe exhibition serves as a meeting space for the entire battery industry\nchain \u2013 from battery cell manufacturers, battery pack assemblers,\nbattery management systems (BMS), energy storage systems, battery\nrecycling, to the integration and expansion of electric vehicle\ninfrastructure and renewable energy solutions.<\/p>\n
According to Deputy Event Director of Pamerindo Indonesia, Hanung\nHanindito, the current development of the battery industry shows that\nthe boundaries between the energy, manufacturing, and technology sectors\nare becoming increasingly blurred. \u201cToday, we are no longer talking\nabout batteries merely as products, but as part of the national\nindustrial strategy. From electric vehicles and renewable energy to data\nstorage systems for industrial needs, everything requires a connected\necosystem. Through The Battery Show Asia \u2013 Indonesia, we aim to provide\na space that brings together the entire value chain so that\ncollaboration, investment, and innovation can grow more rapidly. At the\nsame time, it strengthens Indonesia\u2019s position in the global supply\nchain,\u201d he stated in an official release.<\/p>\n
For players in the electric vehicle and battery industry, this\nmomentum is not just about business opportunities but also a chance to\nenter an rapidly growing market early. As the global supply chain shifts\ntowards Southeast Asia, the decision to participate could be a crucial\nstep in shaping future business. Indonesia is no longer just a promising\nEV market but is building itself as a production and innovation hub for\nbatteries in the region.<\/p>\n
PT Kaltimex Energy Indonesia, which has participated in this\nexhibition series since 2003, views The Battery Show Asia \u2013 Indonesia as\nthe right space to expand connections while gauging the direction of\nfuture industry developments. PT Sekisui Polymatech, a multinational\ncompany with its latest thermal interface material products, also\nexpressed enthusiasm for the exhibition\u2019s 2026 edition.<\/p>\n
The presence of key players in the battery and electrical industry,\nsuch as BryAir, Shandong Gelon Lib Co., Ltd., Enertex Global Energy\nPrivate Limited, Ksterminals Technology Indonesia, and Trafoindo Prima\nPerkasa, indicates that the need for battery solutions is now broader,\nnot only for the automotive sector but also for industrial operational\nefficiency, smart grids, and renewable energy integration.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/no-longer-just-a-raw-material-supplier-indonesia-prepares-regional-battery-industry-hub-1778824501", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
