Indonesian Palm Oil News (IPO News) – Following the success of IEE Series 2024, which featured more than 2,800 participating companies and recorded a total of 64,374 trade attendees, the Indonesia Energy & Engineering Series (IEE Series) 2025 returns this year with several new innovations. One of the key highlights this year is the debut of The Battery Show Indonesia.

As the largest and fire business-to-business (B2B) exhibition in Southeast Asia for the energy and engineering sectors, the Indonesia Energy & Engineering Series (IEE Series) has become a vital pillar in supporting national economic growth. This exhibition is not only a platform for showcasing innovations and technologies across various sectors but also serves as a strategic platform connecting industry players, stakeholders, and investors to strengthen the sustainable industry ecosystem.

This is reflected in the strategic sectors showcased at IEE Series, including energy (including electricity, natural gas, water and waste management, and renewable energy), mining, and construction, all of which play a crucial role in national industrial development.

For the first time, IEE Series will feature The Battery Show Indonesia, which will be held from September 17–20, 2025, co-located with Electric & Power Indonesia and Mining Indonesia. This event will present a comprehensive ecosystem of the battery industry—from upstream research and development to downstream technology applications.

With global standards and experience, The Battery Show Indonesia is expected to become a gathering place for professionals, innovators, and business players in the battery and electric vehicle sectors, particularly in Southeast Asia.

Lia Indriasari, Country Director of Pamerindo Indonesia, said that Indonesia is a rapidly growing and promising battery technology market. As technology adoption continues to advance across various sectors, the demand for batteries is increasing, not only for electric vehicles, renewable energy storage, consumer electronics, but also industrial applications.

“The Battery Show provides the perfect platform for battery manufacturers, both local and international, to showcase their latest innovations and promote collaboration and business opportunities in this growing market,” said Lia.

In a challenging global economic environment, the battery industry is showing a positive growth trend. This aligns with the growth prospects of the battery industry in Indonesia, which are increasingly promising. The rapid growth of the market is driven by Indonesia’s strategic position in the global energy landscape. As the largest economy in Southeast Asia, with a GDP of USD 1 trillion, Indonesia ranks 10th globally in terms of purchasing power parity. Moreover, the attractiveness of this market is further reinforced by national economic stability and the projected positive GDP growth rate for 2024, which is expected to range between 4.7% and 5.5%, as forecasted by Bank Indonesia.

In addition to the growing macroeconomic strength, Indonesia’s energy sector also shows significant progress, particularly in infrastructure development, renewable energy, and electric vehicles. This development is driving an increase in demand for efficient and sustainable battery technologies across various sectors, from automotive and consumer electronics to energy storage and heavy industry.

Specifically, the Indonesian battery market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 5.6% from 2023 to 2028. This trend is driven by the rising adoption of electric vehicles and environmentally friendly energy storage solutions. The Indonesian government is also actively providing regulatory support and incentives to accelerate the transition to a sustainable energy ecosystem. Along with this, several global investors have shown their commitment to the development of the battery industry in Indonesia, including through significant investments in domestic production facilities.

By 2028, Indonesia’s battery market is expected to experience significant growth driven by the increasing use of lithium-ion batteries, which are one of the key solutions for future energy technologies due to their performance and efficiency advantages.
