PLN electricity tariff list for customers per kWh, effective 11 March 2026
Jakarta — The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) has confirmed that electricity tariffs for the first quarter (January-March) of 2026 will remain unchanged for 13 non-subsidised customer categories, amid growing uncertainty in global energy supply and rising global oil prices.
Acting Director General of Electricity at the ESDM Ministry, Tri Winarno, explained that electricity tariffs for the first quarter will not change despite recent increases in energy commodity prices.
“Everything has already been announced that there will be no changes until the first quarter. Even though prices have already risen,” said Tri at the ESDM Ministry on Wednesday, 11 March 2026.
Previously, Tri explained that electricity tariff policy is based on ESDM Ministry Regulation No. 7 of 2024 concerning Electricity Tariffs Provided by PT PLN (Persero).
According to him, under this regulation, tariff adjustments for non-subsidised customers are made every three months based on changes in realisation of macroeconomic parameters, including exchange rates, Indonesian Crude Price (ICP), inflation, and Coal Reference Price (HBA).
“Based on calculations of these parameters, electricity tariffs potentially could change according to the formula. However, to protect public purchasing power, the Government has decided that electricity tariffs for the first quarter of 2026 will remain unchanged,” Tri stated in a written statement on Friday, 20 February 2026.
Tri noted that tariffs for 25 customer categories will remain unchanged, with electricity subsidies continuing to be provided. This policy is part of the government’s efforts to maintain economic stability and provide certainty to the public and businesses at the beginning of 2026.
Additionally, the government remains committed to maintaining affordable electricity tariffs and ensuring the sustainability of national electricity supply.
“The public is urged to use electrical energy wisely as part of collective efforts to support national energy resilience and independence,” Tri said.
The ESDM Ministry has requested PT PLN (Persero) to continue ensuring reliable electricity supply, improve service quality, and optimise operational efficiency to provide the best service to all customers.
