Import LFP Rack 50kWh from China to Indonesia — Hotel Solar TCO & Landed Cost

Verdict: NOT COMPUTABLE — landed CapEx PENDING; only PV of benefits is computable (USD 5,871.74 over 20 yr at 8%). Equipment reference: CATL EnerC family 50 kWh-class commercial LFP rack (commercial product line; SKU to be confirmed in RFQ). Location: Indonesia (hotel retrofit, hospitality use case). Horizon: 20 years. Discount rate: 8.00 %. Evidence date: 2026-09-21. Limitation: with costs undiscounted at zero (CapEx line unset) and benefits discounted at 8%, the two sides of the cashflow are on different time bases; NPV, IRR and payback are reported as defined by the scenario model against the inputs below, not as a procurement recommendation. Datasheet-grade figures, duty stack and freight remain PENDING — lookup.

2. CapEx Table — Landed Cost

The CapEx table sums the FOB equipment price, ocean freight to an Indonesian port of discharge, insurance, customs duties, VAT and inland logistics to the hotel site. CapEx lines remain PENDING — lookup pending verification against the official Indonesia DGCE tariff portal and an OEM freight quote. Until C1–C8 are bound to numeric values, PV of costs is set to 0.0000 in this run.

4. Payback & TCO — Computed Tables

All figures in §4 are computed by the scenario TCO model from the inputs in §4.1 and are computed for this scenario. They are ILLUSTRATIVE — NOT A QUOTE because CapEx is not yet bound; the run therefore reports zero cost lines, payback of 0.0, IRR = n/a and LCOS = 0.0000. The PV of benefits alone (USD 5,871.74) is the only meaningful number; it must not be read as a positive procurement result.

Read: PV of benefits = USD 5,871.74 over 20 yr at 8%. Costs = 0 because CapEx is PENDING — lookup; do not interpret payback = 0.0 as a positive result. Once landed CapEx is bound in §2, the model will re-run and the IRR, payback and LCOS will reflect real values.

8. Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Can a payback or NPV be quoted on this dossier right now?

No. The TCO model can only quote PV of benefits (USD 5,871.74 over 20 yr at 8%) because the landed CapEx line in §2 is PENDING — lookup. NPV, IRR, simple payback, discounted payback and LCOS are not meaningful against an unknown denominator and are reported as defined by the scenario model against the inputs in §4.1 (NPV = USD 5,871.74, simple payback 0.0 yr, discounted payback 0.0 yr, IRR n/a, LCOS 0.0000 USD/kWh).

Q2. What HS code is typically used for LFP rack batteries exported from China to Indonesia?

Lithium-ion batteries typically fall under HS heading 8507 in the international tariff schedule (WCO HS Nomenclature 2022 edition, https://www.wcoomd.org/en/topics/nomenclature/instrument-and-tools/hs-nomenclature-2022-edition). The exact 10-digit Indonesian national line must be confirmed via the Indonesia DGCE tariff portal (https://tarif.beacukai.go.id) at the time of shipment. See §6.

Q3. Are import duty and VAT rates shown on this page binding?

No. Duty and VAT figures shown as PENDING — lookup are not binding. Final rates must be confirmed through the Indonesia DGCE tariff portal (https://tarif.beacukai.go.id) before any commitment. Cross-check with the EU TARIC consultation tool (https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/dds2/taric/taric_consultation.jsp?Lang=en) and the USITC HTSUS heading 8507 (https://hts.usitc.gov/?query=8507.60).

Q4. Which safety standards should an LFP rack battery carry for a hotel / commercial installation in Indonesia?

Buyers typically request IEC 62619:2022 ed2 (secondary lithium cells and batteries for use in industrial applications incl. stationary/ESS — TC 21/SC 21A, https://webstore.iec.ch/en/publication/64073); UN 38.3 (UN Manual of Tests and Criteria, 7th revised edition, Section 38.3, https://unece.org/transport/dangerous-goods/un-manual-tests-and-criteria); and IEC 62477-1:2012/AMD1:2016 for the power-converter subsystem (https://webstore.iec.ch/en/publication/2218). If the BESS is PV-coupled, IEC 62109-1:2010 and IEC 62109-2:2011 (https://webstore.iec.ch/en/publication/6470 and https://webstore.iec.ch/en/publication/6471) may also be requested. Local AHJ requirements (SLO/PLN where applicable) must be confirmed by the importer before procurement.

Q5. What information do I need to provide to receive a firm TradVolt quotation?

Product SKU, quantity and unit, Incoterm (per ICC Incoterms 2020 — EXW / FOB / CIF / DAP / DDP, https://iccwbo.org/business-solutions/incoterms-rules/incoterms-2020/), target certifications, destination country and city, buyer email and buyer company. RFQ submissions received via /rfq/ receive a reply within 48 hours.
