Revision of Electricity Support Services Regulation in Indonesia through Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources enacted the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation No. 12 of 2021
On 17th June 2021, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources enacted the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation No. 12 of 2021 regarding Classification, Qualification and Certification of Electricity Support Services (MR 12 2021) which revoked the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation No. 38 of 2018 regarding Electricity Accreditation and Certification Procedures (MR 38 2018). This regulation revised many stipulations from the previous regulation, both minor and major, and we’ve compiled several noteworthy provisions.
Article 2 MR 12 2021 added the category of “other service businesses that are directly related with the supply of electricity” under the category of what is considered as Electricity Support Services, whereas MR 38 2018 strictly categorized what was classified as Electricity Support Services into what was listed in the regulation. The addition of “other services” opens up possibilities for pioneering new electricity support services.
MR 12 2021 also revised the parameter on how a business is classified as a large, medium or small business. MR 38 2018 measures by:- level of business capability; and
