On August 17, Indonesia's Independence Day, PT PLN Batam held a ceremony at its headquarters to launch its charging station deployment. The ceremony was attended by PT PLN Batam's Board of Directors, including President Mr. Muhammad Irwansyah Putra, Director of Business Units and Business Development Mr. Khairullah, and Director of Operations Mr. Dinda Alamsyah.

PT PLN Batam

PT PLN Batam, a subsidiary of Indonesia's state-owned electricity company (PT PLN) in Batam, provides efficient, reliable electricity and other energy services, ensuring stable power supply to local residents and businesses. PT PLN Batam also actively participates in technological innovation and service optimization, striving to improve service quality and fulfill its corporate social responsibility.

As a partner in this project, Terralpha Nusantara Engineering successfully deployed two ABB Terra AS hybrid DC chargers at PT PLN Batam's headquarters and Subsidiary Business Unit (UB DISYAN) office. Previously, DC chargers in Batam had a maximum output power of only 25kW. The ABB Terra AS hybrid chargers support 60kW and 120kW outputs, making them the fastest electric vehicle charging facilities on Batam. They fill a gap in the high-power DC charger market in Batam, bringing a high-quality and efficient experience to Batam users and accelerating the development of the electric vehicle and charger market in Indonesia.

To further promote the adoption and use of electric vehicles, PT PLN Batam has launched an EV membership ecosystem. This platform provides convenience and privileges for users in Batam, Indonesia, enabling them to enjoy charging services more conveniently.

PT PLN Batam stated, "We will continue to expand Batam's electric vehicle charging infrastructure to meet growing market demand."

Terra AS 60kW/120kW DC Charger

The Terra AS series DC charging piles, developed by Shanghai ABB Connect, are European-standard fast-charging products. Currently supporting 60 and 120kW, they enable rapid charging of electric vehicles. Inheriting ABB Connect's consistent high-quality requirements for product safety and reliability, they also support dual-link connectivity, providing convenience for public charging operators while enabling more efficient remote operation and maintenance services.
