A Review of Electric Vehicles Charging Standard Development: Study Case in Indonesia

The transportation is a sector that consumes high fossil fuels and has a major impact on the environment such as global warming Electric vehicles are considered an alternative to reducing dependence on fossil fuel consumption and minimizing environmental impact. Issues related to the development of electric vehicles are adequate charging station (CS) infrastructure. There are three charging methods for electric vehicles, namely conductive, inductive, and battery exchange. Several international standards have been developed to accommodate the development needs of the charging stations. As an initial user of electric vehicles, Indonesia is faced with the problem of determining the charging system. Indonesia needs to choose the suitable charging system to have clear guidance on CS infrastructure development and maximize the use of electric vehicles. So it is necessary to develop a standard framework for charging stations to support the commercialization of EV in Indonesia. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the potential development of electric vehicle charging stations in Indonesia. Moreover, the result also provides an overview of the standard requirements for CS. Hence, that it can maximize utilize of charging stations on a wider scale and allow the community to benefit from the benefits that can be achieved by this rule.
