Background: The global transition to electric vehicles (EVs) is driven by the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve sustainable transportation. Battery policies play a crucial role in shaping the EV market by influencing technology development, infrastructure, and regulatory frameworks. Methods: This study conducts a bibliometric analysis of EV battery policy research from 2019 to 2024, focusing on global trends and implications for Indonesia. Data was extracted from the Scopus database and analyzed using VOSviewer to identify research clusters, keyword trends, and geographic distribution. Findings: reveal that research is dominated by China, the United States, and the European Union, while Indonesia's policy framework remains underdeveloped. Infrastructure challenges, regulatory gaps, and sustainability concerns hinder EV adoption. Conclusion: strengthening policy alignment, investing in charging networks, and promoting public-private collaboration are critical for Indonesia’s EV industry. Novelty of this article: The novelty aspect refers to this paper is that no prior research has conducted a bibliometric analysis using the keyword "Electric Vehicle Battery Policy" and compared the resulting papers with their implications in Indonesia.
