Indonesia's Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR) has issued MEMR Regulation No. 2/2024, which abolishes net metering for rooftop photovoltaic installations.
The country first introduced net metering in November 2018, allowing solar project owners to export excess power to the grid operated by state utility PT PLN to reduce their electricity bills. Since the regulation was introduced, several amendments have been made.
The latest policy amendment came into effect on January 30 and guarantees that customers who have installed rooftop solar systems before that date will remain under the previous rules for the next 10 years.
