PLN spent Rp200 trillion (13 billion USD) on local components in 2022​

PLN President Director Darmawan Prasodjo addressed the opening of PLN Locomation 2022 at the Jakarta Convention Center (JCC) on Wednesday. ANTARA/Ade Irma Junida.


Jakarta (ANTARA) - State-owned electricity firm (PLN) spent nearly Rp200 trillion out of the total budget of Rp300 trillion on local products so far this year, PLN President Director Darmawan Prasodjo stated.

"Our spending reaches Rp300 trillion per year out of which Rp200 trillion is spent on the domestic industry," he noted while opening PLN Locomation 2022 at the Jakarta Convention Center (JCC) on Wednesday.

Prasodjo remarked that as over four million workers were involved in the ecosystem, its impact is huge.

He ensured local entrepreneurs, including suppliers of components to PLN present at the event, that recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic had begun, with demand continuing to increase.

"(During the pandemic) the suppliers of components to PLN might see their orders declining. Bismillah (in the name of Allah) Insya Allah (God Willing), the demand has begun to increase. Moreover, the increase in demand is beyond our expectation," he remarked.

PLN once faced a challenge when some of its components had not been produced domestically, and it had to import them. However, PLN always urged the government to facilitate the construction of factories producing the components.

With the operation of the factories, PLN will replace its imported components with local components, he remarked.

In addition, PLN will raise the passing grade of domestic components as part of the efforts to increase its local content rate (TKDN), he stated.

"We are looking forward to building a conducive ecosystem to collaborate and innovate," he remarked.

PLN's TKDN (local content) had reached 48.8 percent as of September 30, 2022, surpassing its target of 42 percent for this year, he pointed out.

SIG Collaborates with LPDP to Develop Cement Plant Spare Parts​

Story from Novitri Selvia • 26 minutes ago

PT Semen Indonesia Tbk (SIG) increased the ratio of domestic components by cooperating with the Education Fund Management Agency (LPDP). SIG hopes to make its own factory parts instead of having to import.

SIG President Director Donny Arsal said the collaboration with institutions under the Ministry of Finance was carried out to fund the research or development of parts needed by the company's cement plant.

"So, we convey what components are needed to the domestic industry. Then, we, the research team, and the industry together try to develop the required product," he said yesterday (9/1).

Donny explained that the achievement of using domestic components continues to grow over time. Last year, spare parts purchased from the country reached Rp 550 billion. This value grew 44 percent compared to 2021 which reached IDR 382 billion. In fact, the realization of the domestic component level value (TKDN) in 2022 has exceeded the target of IDR 479 billion.

Meanwhile, LPDP President Director Andin Hadiyanto appreciated the spirit of GIS in encouraging the increase in the use of domestic products (P3DN). According to him, collaboration between ministries and institutions is very important in boosting the economy.

One of the important aspects is the consolidation of industrial data and the implementation of maximum policies. "We have been booked so as not to get caught up in sectoral egos," he said.

Previously, SIG had collaborated with several domestic industries in increasing TKDN. For example, the development of alumina brick refractory with East Java BUMD PT Loka Refractories, belt bucket elevator with East Java BUMD PT Karet Ngagel Surabaya, high chromium grinding ball in collaboration with PT Barata Indonesia (Persero), low chromium grinding ball with Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia, and roller mill lubrication lubrication trials with PT Pertamina Lubricants.
