We can expect it to be up and running by mid-2024, churning out a mind-blowing 250,000 EV units every year.Indonesia knows that cutting greenhouse gas emissions and breaking free from fossil fuel dependency is a big deal. That's why they're diving headfirst into electric mobility. The goal? To have a jaw-dropping nine million electric motorbikes cruising the streets by 2030 and achieve net-zero emissions by 2060.

This partnership means more locally produced EV components and a supply chain that's here to stay.Oh, and here's something cool: Electrum also inked a deal with GIIC, an industrial park in Cikarang. The plan? Gradually introduce Electrum EVs into the operational fleet in that area. Talk about leading by example and promoting sustainable transportation practices!But wait, wait, wait! There's even more good news. Electrum and Planet Ban, a rad motorcycle spare parts store network, are joining forces to make life easier for EV owners.
