Abstract

The emergence of indonesian dependence on the use of fossil fuels in the form of petroleum as a transportation energy resource, has resulted in anincrease in the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere. The Indonesian government then decided to switch to the use of renewable technology transportation that is more energy efficient and environmentally friendly. In this case, the Indonesian government launched a policy of regulationon the developmentof electric motor vehicles embodied in Presidential Regulation No. 55 of 2019 on Accelerating the Battery Electric Vehicle Program for Road Transportation. One form of supporting the Indonesian government against this policy is by providing incentives to the transportation industry. In order to succeed this policy, it requires support from all parties, both government and citizens so as to minimize the obstacles that may occur.
