Kominfo Collaborates with 3 Companies to Build Solar Powered BTS in West Papua
The Ministry of Communication and Informatics (Kominfo) is collaborating with the Lintas Arta-Huawei-SEI Consortium to build 4G Base Tranceiver Stations (BTS) in the Underdeveloped, Frontier, Outermost (3T) areas in Papua Province and West Papua Province. This step is an effort to develop and accelerate digital transformation to create equal access to communication throughout Indonesia.
"With the presence of 4G BTS, it is certainly expected to encourage accelerated development in these areas. The community can make the best use of access to information in a more open and better life so that it will improve welfare," said President Director of PT Surya Energi Indotama (SEI), Bambang Iswanto, through his written statement, Sunday (10/10).
PT SEI is a subsidiary of PT Len Industri (Persero) which specifically operates in the PLTS development business. Meanwhile, Len Industri is a technology-based company engaged in defense technology, rail transportation, new renewable energy, ICT and navigation.
PT SEI is involved in the construction of all BTS in Papua and West Papua. In addition, PT SEI also acts as a Tower and Power Service Provider (TOPO) for predetermined locations.
In the period of 2021-2022, PT SEI together with the Lintas Arta Consortium and Huawei were tasked with realizing 1,795 4G BTS Towers. It is targeted that 954 tower construction locations will be completed by the end of 2021. Meanwhile, for 2022, 841 village point locations are targeted for completion.

As a company engaged in Renewable Energy, PT SEI also builds Off Grid PLTS with a capacity of 4.5 kWp to 4.95 kWp at each site to support Power Supply for telecommunication supporting devices. This PLTS is also a solution for areas that have not been reached by PLN.
"The role of PLTS here is very vital considering that electricity access in the blankspot area is very difficult. Here, PLTS also plays a role as one of the sources of New Renewable Energy making the 4G BTS built environmentally friendly and efficient," said Bambang. "The design of the PLTS built for this 4G BTS is also to ensure that the supply of electrical energy to the device can be carried out continuously so that communication services can continue to be carried out fully for 24 hours a day," he added. Regarding the management and maintenance of the 4G BTS sites, it will be managed by the Network Operation Center (NOC) at PT SEI. The performance and availability of these sites will be monitored for 7x24 hours. If a problem occurs on site, the NOC monitor will notify the relevant consortium to immediately make repairs in the field.
549 BTS Spread Across 7 Districts of West Papua
Specifically for the West Papua region, to date, the construction of 4G BTS has been carried out with a total of 545 VSAT sites spread across 7 regencies, including Maybarat, Raja Ampat, Sorong, South Sorong, Tambrauw, Teluk Bintuni, and Teluk Wondama. "In this case, SEI is a company that has extensive experience in overcoming energy source and construction constraints in the 3T area, together with other Consortium members (Lintas Arta and Huawei) of course making us a solid consortium in carrying out the tasks given by the state through BAKTI Kominfo," he explained. As a direct 4G device trial step, also present were BAKTI Infrastructure Director Bambang Noegroho and Lintas Arta representative Alfi Asman, Huawei Indonesia CEO Jacky Chen, and PT SEI Technical & Operational Director Fajar M. Falah who attended the Video Conference at one of the 4G BTS locations in Iseren Village, Teluk Wondama Regency.
The inauguration of 4G BTS in the Papua and West Papua Provinces, which was carried out virtually via Video Conference, was also attended by the Minister of Communication and Information, Johnny G. Plate, accompanied by the President Director of BAKTI Kominfo Anang Latief, the Governor of West Papua, the Regent of Teluk Wondama, the Regent of Tambrauw, and the leaders of the Lintas Arta Consortium - Huawei Technologies - PT SEI.
