The use of Electric Vehicles (EV) and electrification technologies\ncontinues to be implemented across various industries, including the\nmining sector. Moreover, the global mining industry is facing demands\nfor transformation amid increasing pressure to reduce carbon emissions,\nimprove energy efficiency, and adopt sustainable practices.<\/p>\n
Domestically, the implementation of EVs in the mining sector aligns\nwith national energy transition policies and targets for reducing\ngreenhouse gas emissions, as outlined in the Enhanced Nationally\nDetermined Contribution (ENDC) and the Net Zero Emission (NZE) target by\n2060 or sooner.<\/p>\n
The legal basis for accelerating EV adoption is regulated under\nPresidential Regulation Number 55 of 2019 on the Acceleration of\nBattery-Based Electric Motor Vehicle Programmes, which was updated\nthrough Presidential Regulation Number 79 of 2023. This regulation\nunderscores the government\u2019s commitment to promoting electric vehicles\nnot only for urban needs but also for strategic industrial sectors such\nas mining.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, mining industry players still face several\nchallenges in implementing EVs for sustainable practices. Some of the\nchallenges include the availability of charging infrastructure, the need\nfor technological adaptation, and substantial initial investments;\nhowever, EV adoption is believed to provide long-term benefits for both\nthe industry and society.<\/p>\n
Therefore, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM)\ncontinues to encourage all stakeholders in the mining sector to\ninnovate, collaborate, and share experiences in applying environmentally\nfriendly technologies.<\/p>\n
Moreover, Indonesia has strategic opportunities in developing the\nglobal electric vehicle ecosystem. The country\u2019s wealth of mineral\nresources, particularly nickel as the main raw material for EV\nbatteries, positions Indonesia as an important player in the global\nelectric vehicle industry supply chain.<\/p>\n
The integration between the mining sector, mineral downstreaming, and\nthe development of battery and electric vehicle industries opens up\nsignificant opportunities to strengthen Indonesia\u2019s role in the global\nEV ecosystem while driving a more efficient and sustainable\ntransformation of the mining industry.<\/p>\n
In response to these challenges and opportunities, CNBC Indonesia is\nhosting the EV Transition in Mining Industry Outlook 2026 with the theme\n\u201cThe Future of EVs in the Mining Industry: Between Efficiency and High\nInvestment\u201d. The event will take place on Wednesday, 29 April 2026, from\n09.00 to 12.00 WIB at the St Regis Jakarta - Caroline Astor\nBallroom.<\/p>\n
This forum will feature strategic dialogues bringing together\nregulators, industry associations, mining business actors, and\nstakeholders.<\/p>\n
The EV Transition in Mining Industry Outlook 2026 aims to review\nopportunities, challenges, and the industry\u2019s readiness in adopting EV\ntechnology, particularly from the perspectives of efficiency,\ninvestment, and regulation, while encouraging cross-stakeholder\ncollaboration to strengthen the mining electrification ecosystem in\nIndonesia towards a more competitive and sustainable industrial\nfuture.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/see-the-mining-industrys-efforts-in-sustainability-practices-1776250257", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
