Official: PLN's 13 Non-Subsidised Electricity Tariffs for July 2026 Remain Unchanged
Jakarta - The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) has set PLN electricity tariffs for the July-September 2026 period with no increase. The policy was taken to maintain national economic stability amidst ever-changing global conditions.
Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Bahlil Lahadalia explained that the decision represents the government’s commitment to safeguarding public purchasing power. Additionally, the move is expected to support industrial competitiveness and provide certainty for business actors.
“To maintain public purchasing power and support national economic stability, the government has decided that electricity tariffs for the third quarter of 2026 will remain unchanged or not increase,” Bahlil stated in an official release, quoted on Monday (6/7/2026).
In accordance with Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation Number 7 of 2024, tariff adjustments for 13 non-subsidised customer groups are actually conducted every three months based on changes in four macroeconomic parameters: the rupiah exchange rate, the Indonesian Crude Price (ICP), inflation, and the Reference Coal Price (HBA).
For the third quarter of 2026, the parameters used were realisations from the February-April 2026 period, which recorded an exchange rate of Rp16,959.32 per US dollar, an ICP of US$96.12 per barrel, inflation of 0.21%, and an HBA of US$70 per ton (in accordance with the Domestic Market Obligation/DMO coal policy).
Although the formula indicated a potential for tariff changes, the government decided to maintain electricity tariffs to preserve national economic stability.
Bahlil added that apart from non-subsidised customers, this policy also applies to 24 subsidised customer groups, which are also confirmed to experience no tariff changes. These include social customers, low-income households, small businesses, small industries, and Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).
“The government is committed to providing reliable, affordable, and equitable electricity. This fixed tariff policy is part of efforts to maintain economic stability while ensuring sustainable electricity services,” said Bahlil.
