According to data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), in 2021, 82.78% of Indonesian households used LPG as their primary cooking fuel. This percentage includes households using 3 kg, 5.5 kg, and 12 kg LPG cylinders.

The highest proportion of LPG-consuming households in 2021 was in South Sumatra, Bangka Belitung Islands, Bengkulu, West Kalimantan, DKI Jakarta, Aceh, South Sulawesi, East Kalimantan, Riau, and Gorontalo. In these 10 provinces, more than 90% of households used LPG.

Meanwhile, the lowest proportion was in East Nusa Tenggara, North Maluku, Maluku, Papua, and West Papua. The percentage of LPG-consuming households in these 5 provinces ranged from only 1% to 5%, as shown in the graph.

Starting in 2023, the government will expand the trial of purchasing restrictions on 3 kg LPG, so that the distribution of this subsidized fuel can be more targeted.

"We have already started (the LPG restrictions), but next year we will implement it fully," said Tutuka Ariadji, Director General of Oil and Gas at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, as reported by CNN Indonesia on Monday (12/12/2022).

According to Tutuka, the current restrictions on the purchase of 3 kg LPG are already implemented in five regencies/cities. Starting next year, the trial restrictions will be implemented nationally.

Tutuka stated that in the future, 3 kg LPG can only be purchased by poor people who are already registered in the Extreme Poverty Reduction Acceleration Targeting (P3KE) data.

This data will be gradually integrated into the MyPertamina application. Poor people who are not yet registered in P3KE can also register directly through the MyPertamina application.

Tutuka has not explained in detail the mechanism of these LPG restrictions. However, he mentioned that the concept will be the same as the restrictions on subsidized fuel.
