After Success in 2023, the Largest B2B Exhibition in Southeast Asia for Solar PV, Energy Storage, Lighting and Smart Home Industries Returns in 2024

Indonesia, which is located on the equator, has very abundant solar energy sources. 600 MegaWatt (MW) of its potential of 3,200 GigaWatt (GW) has been utilized, showing that there are still plenty of rooms for further development in the future. Solar Energy Power Plants (PLTS) are one of the government's efforts to utilize solar energy sources in Indonesia, both floating PLTS and rooftop PLTS.

The Directorate General of New, Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation (EBTKE) said that floating PLTS is targeted to reach 14.7 GW at 259 dam points and 74.67 GW at 36 PLTA reservoir points, while rooftop PLTS is targeted to reach 1,800 MW in 2024 and 2,270 MW in 2025. The floating and rooftop solar PV programs are expected to reduce emissions by 39.68 million tons and 5.4 million tons of CO2e respectively.

The aim of utilizing solar energy sources is to achieve Net Zero Emission (NZE) by 2060. Therefore, to realize NZE in 2060, the government through the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) is targeting the use of energy-saving Light Emitting Diode (LED) lamps for street lighting in all regions in Indonesia.

The use of LED lights itself can provide various benefits including energy savings, longer lamp life, and reduced long-term operational costs. It is hoped that this significant development in the utilization of energy sources in Indonesia will attract foreign and domestic investors to jointly join in developing the latest technology in their field. Support does not only come from the government and BUMN, GEM Indonesia, as one of the Exhibition Organizers in Indonesia, is taking part in realizing NZE in 2060.

After success in 2023, GEM Indonesia presents again Solartech Indonesia, Smart Home+IoT, and INALIGHT by presenting leading global companies, including PLN Nusantara Power, Huayao PV, Atelier Solar, Gotion, Apollo Solar Indonesia, JJ-Lapp, Solis, Hexing, Livoltek, RePower, MKOPTO, AE Solar, Damai Cable, Boamax, Bluetti, Goodwe, Ecoflow, ATW Solar, Aviation Electrical and more than 800 other exhibitors.

By holding exhibitions in the fields of Solar PV, Energy Storage, Lighting and Smart Home, GEM Indonesia has succeeded in making the exhibition the largest B2B International exhibition in Southeast Asia in its field. This exhibition will be held on 6-8 March 2024 at JIExpo Kemayoran, Jakarta - Indonesia, targeted to be visited by more than 25,000 visitors.

The exhibition also received support from the Directorate General of Small and Medium Industries, Ministry of Industry of the Republic of Indonesia, Directorate General of New Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation, Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources as well as several associations, including APAMSI, APERLINDO, APTIKNAS, ALINDO, AKLI, APPLE, GAPENDO, PERTAMISI, and APKABEL.
