To increase the terminal&#8217;s efficiency, hybrid cooling systems will be added to the existing solar panels. These improved spaces and automation will increase the terminal&#8217;s capacity by 20%, enabling TMFT to accommodate over three million passengers. In 2023, over 1M travelers used TMFT to travel Tanjung Pengelih, Desaru Coast, Batam and Bintan in the Riau Islands.
