Head of the Center for Electricity Survey and Testing, New, Renewable Energy, and Energy Conservation Victory ESDM, Harris, revealed that the development of nuclear technology for national power plants could begin in the era of the new Prabowo-Gibran government. Although, several regulations are in the process of being made, by calculating the remaining term of the current government which is approximately 2 months, it is estimated that the new government will start it.
“This nuclear cannot be done in a short time. It will take several years to build it, starting from when we started it. statement nuclear until the auction activity is carried out. It still takes 9-10 years. That’s why if we say a new government, it must be because the current government only has 2 months left,” Harris said in Jakarta, Monday (9/9).
He explained that to start the construction of a nuclear power plant (PLTN), the government is still waiting for several regulations to be completed. At least, there are a number of predecessor regulations, namely the Electricity Supply Bill (PTL), the National Energy Policy (KEN) and several related derivative regulations. If the regulations have been completed, the head of state can convey national statement nuclear related.
At least, there are 19 requirements to build nuclear technology. Of these requirements, 16 have been met and there are 3 remaining requirements, including national statement.
“The most important thing is the national commitment to nuclear which is very important. As much as possible statement “That was stated by the President,” he added.
Furthermore, he said, the development of nuclear technology for power plants is targeted to be commercialized in 2033. For this reason, government support for one of the cleanest energies is very important to be able to accelerate the achievement of the target.

“But how long will the construction take? What is clear is that we are targeting the first commercial operation in 2033,” he said.
Whatever, related to the raw material of uranium is planned to be taken from within the country. Although there is no production yet, by utilizing the latest technology it can be realized.
“We are planning to produce uranium domestically, but in the beginning we may still import it. How long we will import it depends on how… transfer knowledge “This is done to be able to produce our own uranium,” he stressed. (Z-11)

Indonesia’s Nuclear Power Ambitions: A Comprehensive Overview
Indonesia, a nation with a strong commitment to decarbonizing its energy sector, is turning to nuclear power as a promising solution. With the country’s industry growing at a rapid pace, the need for clean and sustainable energy sources has become more pressing than ever. According to a recent insight by MRI [[1]], Indonesia is exploring ways to reduce its carbon footprint without hindering its industrial growth, and nuclear power, with Japan’s expertise, offers a viable path forward.
A Commitment to Non-Proliferation
Despite its ambitions to harness nuclear energy, Indonesia has consistently demonstrated its commitment to non-proliferation. The country signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) in 1970, reaffirming its status as a non-nuclear weapon state [[2]].
Indonesia’s First Nuclear Power Plant
Indonesia’s plans for its first commercial nuclear power plant are taking shape, with testing and operation expected to begin in the 2030-2034 period [[3]]. This goal is part of the country’s broader strategy to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels and transition to cleaner energy sources.
Challenges Ahead
While Indonesia’s nuclear power ambitions are gaining momentum, several regulatory hurdles need to be overcome. The development of nuclear technology for national power plants will require the completion of several regulations, including the Electricity Supply Bill (PTL), the National Energy Policy (KEN), and related derivative regulations. Additionally, the government needs to secure 19 requirements to build nuclear technology, with three remaining to be met, including a national statement on nuclear energy.
Government Support Crucial
Government support is critical to accelerating the development of nuclear technology in Indonesia. The country’s energy policy, combined with international cooperation, will play a vital role in realizing Indonesia’s nuclear power goals.
Indonesia’s foray into nuclear power represents a significant step towards decarbonizing its energy sector while meeting its growing industrial demands. With a strong commitment to non-proliferation and a growing need for clean energy, the country is poised to make significant strides in the field of nuclear power.
