In 2010, the government set the selling price of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) for the transportation sector at Rp3,100 per liter equivalent to premium gasoline (lsp).

For approximately a decade, this price remained unchanged, until the government finally raised the price of CNG to Rp4,500 per liter equivalent to premium gasoline (lsp), effective May 1, 2022.

This new price is stipulated in the Decree of the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Number 82 of 2022 concerning the Selling Price of Compressed Natural Gas Used for Transportation.

The price increase applies to CNG used in motor vehicles.

According to Krisdyan Widagdo Adhi, Head of Public Relations at PT Perusahaan Gas Negara (PGN), PGN's CNG customers in the transportation sector reach 2,000 customers per day, dominated by taxis, minibuses, buses, and three-wheeled vehicles (bajaj).

PGN believes this price increase will have a positive impact on the economy of businesses distributing CNG.

However, one of CNG's customers, Transjakarta, ensures that its bus service fares will not increase despite the rise in CNG prices.
