Jakarta – The government continues to encourage the use of clean and sustainable energy to support national energy security while also improving community welfare. One of the concrete steps being taken is the development of Household Gas Networks (Jargas), which are believed to provide strategic benefits such as expanding energy access, creating jobs, and strengthening the economy.

As part of its support for this initiative, Pertamina Gas Negara together with PGN Solution signed a framework contract for the construction of natural gas networks (Jargas) for households, small customers, and commercial industries. The event took place at the Multimedia Room, Building A, 1st Floor, PT Perusahaan Gas Negara Tbk Head Office, and was attended by the Board of Directors of Pertamina Gas Negara, the Board of Directors of PGN Solution, the Head of the Downstream Oil and Gas Regulatory Agency, Ms. Erika Retnowati, A.K., M.Si., as well as representatives from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.

The signing was carried out by the Director of Strategy and Business Development of Pertamina Gas Negara, Ms. Rosa Permata Sari, and the President Director of PGN Solution, Mr. Sabaruddin. This agreement represents a tangible form of synergy between the government and state-owned energy enterprises to accelerate the realization of Jargas development in priority regions.

The planned Jargas infrastructure development will be implemented in Surabaya–Gresik and the Batam Distribution Network Area (WJD) during the 2025–2027 period. Specifically for Batam City, the area has been designated as a pilot project for the overlay between LPG and Pertamina Group’s Jargas, as part of the government’s efforts to strengthen the utilization of natural gas for the community.

In his remarks, President Director of PGN Solution, Mr. Sabaruddin, emphasized, “PGN Solution is fully committed to supporting the government’s efforts in expanding the use of natural gas for the community. Through the development of Jargas, we are ready to deliver cleaner, more efficient, and sustainable energy, strengthening national energy security and supporting Indonesia’s energy transition targets. We believe the benefits of this program will be increasingly tangible for the community through strong collaboration with the government.”

Through this initiative, Pertamina Gas Negara together with PGN Solution reaffirm their full support for government policies in delivering more accessible, safe, and sustainable environmentally friendly energy. The development of Jargas is expected not only to reduce carbon emissions but also to strengthen national energy independence for a greener and more competitive future for Indonesia.
