In a recent development, PT Sentrik Persada Nusantara, under the leadership of its Founder and CEO, I Made Sudiana, SH., M.SI., has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with E3 Mobility Deux7 Powertrai by Hyundai Kefico. This collaboration aims to promote the use of electric vehicles (EVs) in Bali.
The Provincial Government of Bali has been actively pushing for the adoption of battery-based electric vehicles. They have even released a policy, Pergub No.48 of 2019, concerning the use of EVs in Bali. Sudiana emphasizes the need for consistent implementation of this policy and suggests elevating it to a regional regulation to ensure better financial support and increased adoption by consumers.
Sudiana also highlighted that Governor Koster has presented a roadmap for EVs in Bali, aiming for a significant increase in EV population each year. Given the rising number of vehicles in Bali, PT Sentrik Persada Nusantara is committed to offering high-quality EVs suitable for consumers, equipped with top-notch batteries and efficient charging systems. Sudiana hopes the government will pay serious attention to the battery systems, ensuring widespread availability of both swapping and charging stations throughout Bali.
Furthermore, Sudiana revealed that PT Sentrik Persada Nusantara is not merely chasing the domestic content level (TKDN) but is determined to provide EVs that are truly suitable for the people of Bali. This commitment is evident in their collaboration with a Korean company, E3 Mobility Deux7 Powertrai by Hyundai Kefico. They have even initiated plans to set up an assembling unit in Bali, marking the beginning of the electric vehicle industry in the region.
In conclusion, Sudiana believes that the potential for the EV industry in Bali is promising. He hopes the Bali Provincial Government will not solely focus on TKDN but prioritize the quality and suitability of EVs for the local community.
