List of Electric Vehicle Charging Locations in Bali 2026

Traveling with an electric car in Bali is now much easier than it was just a few years ago. The network of public EV charging stations (SPKLU) and other charging points keeps expanding, especially in popular tourist areas like Kuta, Nusa Dua, Denpasar, and Ubud. With just a little planning, you can enjoy a calm, comfortable, and eco-friendly road trip without worrying too much about running out of battery mid-journey.

For travelers renting an electric car, the driving experience feels noticeably smoother, making it perfect for exploring Bali’s towns and villages from south to north. All you need to know is where the main SPKLU points are located so you can time your charging stops accordingly.

Key Takeaways

  • Bali already has dozens of SPKLUs and charging stations spread across major cities and key tourist areas, particularly in Denpasar, Badung (Kuta to Nusa Dua), and Gianyar (Ubud).
  • Charger locations are generally found at PLN offices, the airport area, city centers, malls, and select hotels and resorts.
  • The safest way to find the latest charger locations is by using the PLN Mobile app and other EV charging operator apps.
  • Always plan your route and charging schedule before setting off, including having backup charging points along every leg of your journey.
  • For travelers renting an electric car, combining an EV-friendly route with support from the rental provider will make the trip far more comfortable and stress-free.

Why Is Renting an Electric Vehicle an Appealing Option in Bali?

A few reasons EVs are well-suited for a Bali holiday:

  • The near-silent engine makes for a calmer, more comfortable ride, especially when passing through rural or mountainous areas.
  • The combination of abundant tourist destinations and a growing SPKLU network makes EV road trips increasingly feasible.
  • For sustainability-conscious travelers, an electric car is a choice that aligns well with an eco-conscious lifestyle.

By renting an electric car, you still get the freedom to explore without being tied to a tour schedule or a driver at all times (unless you choose a package with a driver).

Where Are the Electric Vehicle Charging Stations in Bali?

In general, SPKLUs and charging stations in Bali are now spread across most regencies and cities, with the highest concentration in Denpasar, Badung (Kuta, Seminyak, Nusa Dua, Canggu), and Gianyar (Ubud). Beyond these areas, a number of points have also appeared in North and East Bali, mainly at PLN offices and along main routes leading to tourist destinations.

Most official SPKLUs are managed by PLN and its partners, while other charging stations are installed by private operators at hotels, malls, and lifestyle centers. Since the number and location of SPKLUs change over time, the safest approach is always to check the latest information through official apps like PLN Mobile or other charger operator apps before you set off.

List of Main SPKLU Locations in Bali (PLN & Partners)

Below is an overview of the main SPKLU locations in Bali by region not a fixed or complete list. Names and numbers of SPKLUs may change, so you’ll still need to verify through the official app.

Use this table as a quick reference to help you locate SPKLUs across Bali, where the vehicle charging infrastructure includes stations with various charging capacities:

SPKLU in Denpasar and Surrounding Areas

Denpasar is one of the regions with the highest number of SPKLUs in Bali. These locations are spread across several strategic points, making it easy for EV users to charge while going about their activities in the city center.

Examples of commonly mentioned SPKLU locations in Denpasar (double-check via the app):

  • Denpasar city center area (for example, around Dauh Puri and nearby)
  • The Jalan Hayam Wuruk area and its surroundings
  • SPKLUs at the PLN/ULP Denpasar office and other PLN facilities
  • Points near the Denpasar–Sanur border or along the route to By Pass Ngurah Rai

For travelers, Denpasar can serve as a charging hub before continuing your journey south (Kuta–Nusa Dua), east (Sanur–Klungkung), or north (Ubud–Gianyar).

SPKLU in Badung (Kuta, Seminyak, Canggu, Nusa Dua)

Badung Regency is the heart of southern Bali’s tourism scene and an important area for electric cars. In this region, SPKLUs are typically located near the airport, along main roads, and within major tourist areas.

Examples of frequently referenced locations (still worth double-checking):

  • SPKLUs around I Gusti Ngurah Rai Airport or its main access roads
  • SPKLUs along the main Kuta–Seminyak–Canggu corridor
  • SPKLUs in the ITDC Nusa Dua area and its surroundings
  • Several points along By Pass Ngurah Rai, connecting Kuta–Nusa Dua–Sanur

If your itinerary focuses mostly on southern Bali, charging up in Denpasar and Badung should be enough to keep your battery safely topped up throughout the day.

SPKLU in Gianyar & Ubud

Ubud and Gianyar, known as Bali’s cultural and wellness hubs, are now starting to gain access to SPKLUs. These locations tend to be found at PLN facilities and along the main routes leading into Ubud. Examples of common location patterns:

  • SPKLUs at the PLN/ULP Gianyar office
  • Points along the main route to Ubud from Denpasar or the south
  • A few other points within Gianyar’s tourist corridor (check specifics via the app)

Since the distance between Denpasar and Ubud is relatively short, many EV users choose to fully charge in Denpasar and then use SPKLUs in Gianyar/Ubud only for a top-up when needed.

SPKLU in North and East Bali

Northern areas (such as Singaraja/Buleleng) and eastern areas (Klungkung, Karangasem) are also starting to be served by SPKLUs, although the distance between charging points tends to be greater than in the south. Overview of locations:

  • SPKLUs at the PLN/ULP Singaraja office for the North Bali area
  • SPKLUs at several points along the main route to Klungkung and Karangasem
  • Potential SPKLUs in regency towns that serve as gateways to tourist areas like Candidasa, Amed, or Lovina

If you’re planning a trip to these regions, it’s best to manage your battery more conservatively as an EV driver, including charging up to a high level before leaving the southern part of the island; this growing infrastructure for vehicle charging on longer corridors helps reduce range anxiety for EV drivers heading to North and East Bali.

Electric Car Chargers at Hotels, Villas, and Shopping Centers

Beyond official SPKLUs, a number of hotels, resorts, villas, and shopping centers in Bali have started offering charging facilities for guests and visitors.

Do Hotels and Villas in Bali Already Offer EV Chargers?

Some hotels and resorts in Nusa Dua, Kuta, Seminyak, and Ubud have started offering EV charging facilities as an added perk. However, availability is still uneven and is often limited to certain property tiers.

Before booking, it’s a good idea to:

  • Ask directly whether the hotel or villa provides EV charging facilities.
  • Ask what type of connector is available and whether it’s compatible with your car.
  • Confirm whether charging incurs a separate fee and whether you need to book a time slot.

This way, you can combine charging at your accommodation with public SPKLUs as a backup.

Charging Stations at Malls, Supermarkets, and Lifestyle Centers

As the number of electric car users grows, several shopping malls and lifestyle centers have started installing chargers in partnership with private EV operators. The pattern usually looks like this:

  • One or more dedicated EV parking spots with AC or DC chargers
  • Located in the basement or main parking area for easy access
  • Usage managed through the operator’s app or QR code

Since operator types and locations can vary, your best approach is to:

  • Download a popular EV charger operator app used in Indonesia
  • Enable location/GPS to see a list of malls and shopping centers with chargers in Bali
  • Read reviews or reports from other users to get a sense of actual conditions (queues, operating hours, etc.)

How to Find the Nearest Electric Car Charging Location in Bali

Rather than relying on a static list, it’s a good habit to search for charger locations yourself through official apps and digital maps. This helps reduce the risk of arriving at a location that’s changed or is no longer operational.

Using the PLN Mobile App and Online Maps

The PLN Mobile app helps locate SPKLU stations in Bali and is the main reference point for official listings. Broadly, here’s how to use it:

  1. Download and install the PLN Mobile app.
  2. Enable location services (GPS) on your smartphone.
  3. Go to the dedicated electric vehicle/SPKLU menu.
  4. Select the Bali region filter or use the “nearest” feature to see SPKLUs around you.
  5. Read the available details (connector type, power output, online/offline status if provided, and real-time availability when shown in the app).
  6. Use the navigation feature or copy the coordinates into Google Maps, since Google Maps and PLN Mobile can be used together to locate SPKLU stations.

This way, you’ll always be looking at a more up-to-date list of SPKLUs through the app or website, reducing the risk of being misled by outdated information; availability may vary, so always check through apps before heading out.

Using Charger Operator Apps and EV Communities

Besides PLN, several private EV operators run their own charger networks. They typically offer an app that lets you:

  • View electric vehicle charging stations across Indonesia, including coverage across Java, Sumatra, and Bali
  • Check charger availability status
  • Top up your balance or make cashless payments

You can also join electric car user communities (forums, social media groups) to get real-time field updates on:

  • SPKLUs or chargers that are currently busy or have queues
  • Alternative route tips in case of traffic jams or road work
  • Real experiences from other users charging their cars in Bali

Tips for Planning an Electric Car Road Trip Route in Bali

Route planning is the key to a comfortable EV experience, especially in a destination like Bali, which has plenty of winding roads and elevation changes that vary quite a bit compared to other regions in Indonesia.

How Often Should You Charge While Exploring Bali?

Charging frequency depends heavily on:

  • Your car’s battery capacity
  • Daily travel distance and chosen route
  • Traffic conditions and driving style

As a general rule, avoid waiting until your battery is very low before charging. Follow your vehicle manufacturer’s guidelines and treat SPKLUs along main routes as “anchor points,” for example:

  • Charging to full or near-full before a long trip to North or East Bali
  • Topping up in Denpasar/Badung before heading up to Ubud or areas with fewer SPKLUs

Most importantly, always have a backup plan with alternative charging points in case the main SPKLU is full or unavailable.

Example Popular Routes and Charging Strategies

Here are a few sample scenarios (not fixed routes) that you can adapt for your trip to Bali:

Southern Bali route: Airport – Kuta – Seminyak – Canggu – Nusa Dua Strategy: use the SPKLU near the airport or in Denpasar as your starting point, then use the SPKLU in the Badung/Nusa Dua area to top up if needed.

South – Ubud – North Bali route: Denpasar – Ubud – Kintamani – Singaraja/Lovina Strategy: charge to full in Denpasar or Gianyar before heading up into the mountains, then take advantage of the SPKLU in Singaraja or other regency towns as a charging point before heading back south.

The network of SPKLU stations is rapidly expanding in Bali, so assumptions about electric vehicle charging stops should still be double-checked in the app before departure.

Always match your route to your battery capacity in advance and check travel times on an online map to avoid delays from traffic or road repairs.

Etiquette and Safety While Electric Vehicle Charging

To keep the charging experience pleasant for everyone:

  • Park within the designated EV parking markings and avoid blocking other vehicles.
  • Follow the instructions given by SPKLU staff or those displayed on the charging equipment.
  • Don’t leave valuables in your car while it’s charging and unattended.
  • Save the official customer service contact (PLN or the charger operator) in case you run into technical issues.

Using an electric car to explore Bali isn’t just about lifestyle it’s also about comfort and flexibility on the road.

Popular Electric Car Options and Premium Rental Services

Once you have a clear picture of SPKLU locations and how to plan an EV-friendly route in Bali, the next step is choosing the vehicle that best fits your holiday style. For most travelers, the combination of cabin comfort, battery range, and easy access to charging will make a big difference to the overall driving experience on the Island of the Gods.

Whatever you choose, renting from an experienced provider is key. Make sure you rent a premium car from a partner who understands the needs of mid- to high-end travelers and is familiar with Bali’s SPKLU ecosystem.

Every vehicle is regularly maintained to ensure comfort and safety as you explore Bali.
