Dikatakan, FGD ini adalah ikhtiar kedua pihak untuk bersama-sama mengkaji lebih dalam potensi industri elektrifikasi transportasi di Indonesia, serta pengembangannya ke depan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Direktur PENS Aliridho Barakbah mengatakan bahwa selain VKTR, pihaknya juga mengundang sejumlah institusi seperti Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS) Surakarta, Badan Riset dan Inovasi Nasional (BRIN), PT PLN (Persero), dan PT INKA (Persero) untuk berpartisipasi secara langsung dalam diskusi tersebut. \u201cKami berharap melalui FGD ini semua pihak bisa saling bersinergi lebih solid demi memetakan industri elektrifikasi transportasi, mengidentifikasi kendala, potensi dan peluangnya sehingga dapat segera kami kembangkan bersama-sama,\u201d ucap Aliridho.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aliridho juga menambahkan bahwa PENS dan VKTR sekaligus menggelar pameran teknologi di saat yang sama. Salah satunya, mereka memamerkan keberhasilan kolaborasi kedua pihak dalam mengubah sepeda motor bermesin motor bakar konvensional menjadi sepeda motor bertenaga motor listrik, dengan teknologi yang disebut retrofit. \u201cSaya kira ini pencapaian penting. Kita, masyarakat Indonesia, membutuhkan teknologi yang terjangkau untuk memperbanyak moda transportasi ramah lingkungan, sekaligus dapat membantu pencapaian target zero emission di Indonesia secara lebih cepat,\u201d tegas Aliridho.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Direktur Utama VKTR Gilarsi W. Setijono meyakini bahwa pilihan me-retrofit sepeda motor konvensional menjadi sepeda motor listrik ini dapat menjadi solusi tambahan bagi pemerintah dan masyarakat luas dalam upaya mengurangi polusi di perkotaan di Indonesia, memanfaatkan teknologi yang tepat guna dengan ongkos yang relatif terjangkau. \u201cYang pasti, teknologi retrofit ini bukan sebuah rocket science dan relatif mudah diaplikasikan. Karenanya kami optimis bahwa metode yang kami tawarkan ini dapat cepat diterima oleh masyarakat secara luas dan tentunya mendapat dukungan penuh dari pihak pemerintah dan dunia usaha khususnya,\u201d tandas Gilarsi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gilarsi menjelaskan fakta bahwa Indonesia saat ini merupakan negara ketiga dengan pengguna sepeda motor terbanyak di dunia, dimana sekitar 85 persen rumah tangga di Indonesia setidaknya memiliki satu unit sepeda motor dan menjadikannya sebagai alat transportasi utama. Menurut survei yang pernah dilakukan oleh Asosiasi Industri Sepeda Motor Indonesia (AISI), kata Gilarsi, jumlah sepeda motor di Indonesia saat ini mencapai lebih dari 80 juta, dengan 15 juta di antaranya digunakan untuk melewati kota Jakarta setiap harinya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tantangan<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dalam FGD, Gilarsi memaparkan sejumlah tantangan yang saat ini dihadapi pelaku industri elektrifikasi transportasi di tanah air. Beberapa di antaranya saling terkait, seperti teknologi yang masih dini dan minimnya pilihan kendaraan listrik di pasaran. Disamping itu, infrastruktur pendukung seperti SPKLU (Stasiun Pengisian Kendaraan Listrik Umum) juga belum disiapkan. Ketiga faktor tersebut turut mempengaruhi harga akhir yang masih relatif tinggi. \u201cFaktor-faktor itu akhirnya membuat masyarakat kita merasa bahwa kendaraan listrik saat ini belum terlalu dibutuhkan,\u201d terang Gilarsi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Untuk mempercepat tumbuhnya industri ini memang diperlukan serangkaian ketentuan yang jelas; seperti aturan terkait operasional angkutan umum kendaraan listrik, kendaraan baru & kendaraan hasil retrofit, regulasi terkait dengan infrastruktur kendaraan listrik, aturan teknis produksi dan penggunaan baterai, hingga ketentuan terkait insentif pembiayaan dari Pemerintah untuk kendaraan listrik. \u201cKita juga perlu meningkatkan keterjangkauan dengan menumbuhkan pabrikan lokal. Secara langsung hal ini akan menaikkan nilai ekonomis, sekaligus mematuhi aturan tingkat kandungan dalam negeri (TKDN),\u201d sebut Gilarsi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Di akhir diskusi, Gilarsi menegaskan pihaknya tengah dan akan terus menjalin sinergi dan memperkuat koordinasi dengan pihak regulator, pelaku industri, dan instansi akademik, terutama berkenaan dengan skema bisnis dan pengembangannya di masa depan. \u201cKami perlu lebih memperluas kerja sama dengan pelaku-pelaku industri di dalam ekosistem elektrifikasi ini. Dan yang paling penting, sebagai salah satu pelopor di industri ini, tentu kami akan selalu membutuhkan dukungan pemerintah dalam setiap tahap pengembangan,\u201d kata Gilarsi menutup pemaparannya.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
PT VKTR Teknologi Mobilitas (VKTR \u2013 or called ‘Vector’) in collaboration with the Politeknik Elektronika Negeri Surabaya (PENS) held a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) entitled “Mapping the Potential for Building the Indonesian Transportation Electrification Industry” and a technology exhibition, at the PENS Campus, Surabaya, Tuesday (29\/11\/2022). He said that this FGD was the initiative of both parties to jointly study more deeply the potential of the transportation electrification industry in Indonesia, as well as its future development. PENS Director Aliridho Barakbah said that apart from VKTR, his party also invited a number of institutions such as Surakarta’s Sebelas Maret University (UNS), National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN), PT PLN (Persero), and PT INKA (Persero) to participate directly in the discussion. the. “We hope that through this FGD all parties can work together more solidly in order to map the transportation electrification industry, identify constraints, potentials and opportunities so that we can develop them together immediately,” said Aliridho. Aliridho also added that PENS and VKTR were holding a technology exhibition at the same time. One of them, they showcased the successful collaboration of the two parties in turning conventional combustion engined motorcycles into electric motorbikes, using a technology called retrofit. “I think this is an important achievement. We, the people of Indonesia, need affordable technology to increase the number of environmentally friendly modes of transportation, while at the same time helping to achieve the zero emission target in Indonesia more quickly,” said Aliridho. VKTR President Director Gilarsi W. Setijono believes that the option of retrofitting conventional motorbikes into electric motorbikes can be an additional solution for the government and the wider community in efforts to reduce pollution in cities in Indonesia, utilizing appropriate technology at relatively affordable costs. “What is certain, this retrofit technology is not a rocket science and is relatively easy to apply. Therefore, we are optimistic that the method we offer can be quickly accepted by the wider community and of course, will receive full support from the government and the business world in particular,” said Gilarsi. Gilarsi explained the fact that Indonesia is currently the third country with the most motorbike users in the world, where around 85 percent of households in Indonesia own at least one motorbike and make it the main means of transportation. According to a survey conducted by the Indonesian Motorcycle Industry Association (AISI), said Gilarsi, the number of motorbikes in Indonesia currently reaches more than 80 million, with 15 million of them used to pass through the city of Jakarta every day. Challenge In the FGD, Gilarsi explained a number of challenges currently being faced by the transport electrification industry in the country. Some of these are interrelated, such as the technology’s infancy and the lack of electric vehicle options on the market. Besides that, supporting infrastructure such as SPKLU (Public Electric Vehicle Charging Stations) have not been prepared. These three factors also affect the final price which is still relatively high. “These factors ultimately make our society feel that electric vehicles are not really needed at this time,” explained Gilarsi. “After all, the industrialization of electric vehicles must be built and developed in Indonesia. Currently around the world, electrification is indeed one that is relied upon to become the core industry of the future,” said Gilarsi. “The challenge is that some basic things need to be prepared in advance, such as standard regulations for electric vehicles, which ideally the government can issue immediately, in the not too distant future,” continued Gilarsi In order to accelerate the growth of this industry, a clear set of provisions is required; such as regulations related to the operation of electric vehicle public transportation, new vehicles & retrofit vehicles, regulations related to electric vehicle infrastructure, technical regulations for the production and use of batteries, to provisions related to financial incentives from the Government for electric vehicles. \u201cWe also need to increase affordability by cultivating local manufacturers. This will directly increase the economic value, as well as comply with domestic content level regulations (TKDN),” said Gilarsi. At the end of the discussion, Gilarsi emphasized that his party was and would continue to establish synergies and strengthen coordination with regulators, industry players and academic institutions, especially with regard to business schemes and their future development. “We need to further expand cooperation with industrial players in this electrification ecosystem. And most importantly, as one of the pioneers in this industry, of course we will always need government support at every stage of development,” said Gilarsi closing his presentation.
