The Indonesian government implemented a three-stage electricity tariff increase starting January 1, 2017, for 900 VA subscribers. This increase resulted from the removal of subsidies for 19 million 900 VA subscribers deemed affluent. Following this, the tariff for 900 VA subscribers will adjust according to the same scheme as those with 1300 VA and above.

According to Jarman, Director General of Electricity at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, each increase adds 32 percent to the basic electricity tariff borne by the customer. Jarman stated that the funds from the subsidy removal will be diverted to more productive sectors, such as financing the construction of electricity network infrastructure, particularly in areas currently without electricity access.
