Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) plans to revise the Electricity Supply Business Plan (RUPTL) 2025-2034, which was only launched last year.

Acting Director General of Electricity at the Ministry of ESDM, Tri Winarno, said the government is currently discussing several adjustments to the RUPTL.

“There are indeed some corrections to the RUPTL, something like that. We’re conducting discussions,” Tri said at the RI House of Representatives building on Wednesday (15/4/2026).

Tri added that the revision is fundamentally aimed at making national electricity planning more adaptive to the dynamics of needs and regulatory changes.

“As I mentioned earlier, the point is to make the regulations as adaptive as possible, something like that,” he stated.

As is known, Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Bahlil Lahadalia officially launched the Electricity Supply Business Plan (RUPTL) of PT PLN (Persero) for the 2025-2034 period.

According to Bahlil, the preparation of the RUPTL 2025-2034 involved a lengthy discussion process and was thoroughly reviewed. He hopes the results will be precise and meet the needs.

“So our RUPTL is in line with the RUKN and KEN; RUKN is like the law, KEN is the government regulation, and the spirit is the RUPTL. This is the reference tree for the birth of the RUPTL so we don’t go outside the framework,” Bahlil said at a press conference at the Ministry of ESDM building on Monday (26/5/2025).

The RUPTL includes a target to add power generation capacity of 69.5 Gigawatts (GW). This consists of 42.6 GW from new and renewable energy (EBT) power plants.

Then, 10.3 GW will come from energy storage systems, while 16.6 GW will come from fossil fuel-based power plants.

The breakdown for EBT power plant capacity is as follows: Solar at 17.1 GW, Hydro at 11.7 GW, Wind at 7.2 GW, Geothermal at 5.2 GW, Bioenergy at 0.9 GW, and Nuclear at 0.5 GW.

Meanwhile, the energy storage system capacity includes pumped storage hydro at 4.3 GW and batteries at 6.0 GW. For fossil fuel power plants, 16.6 GW will still be built, consisting of gas at 10.3 GW and coal at 6.3 GW.
