About the Conference

Indonesia remains one of the world’s most important coal producers and exporters, playing a central role in both domestic power generation and Asian energy security. Yet by 2027 the industry will operate under much tighter scrutiny and structural constraints, shaped by stricter Domestic Market Obligation (DMO) enforcement, evolving royalty and fiscal regimes, and accelerating energy transition policies at home and abroad.

Producers are already navigating more assertive DMO controls and capped domestic pricing, while also adapting to flatter or declining export demand in key markets that are ramping up renewables and reducing long-term reliance on imported thermal coal. At the same time, new governance frameworks—most notably the integration of Work Plan and Budget (RKAB) approvals and licensing into the MinerbaOne digital system—are reshaping how production, permits, and reporting must be managed. Delays, non compliance, or weak data can translate directly into lost production days, constrained export volumes, and heightened financial risk.

The 4th Indonesia Coal Outlook Conference is designed as a strategic executive briefing on how to navigate this environment, not merely as a market update. It will deliver a sharp, data driven view of 2027 domestic and export demand, price drivers, and policy trajectories, and translate them into practical implications for trading, contracting, capital allocation, and portfolio strategy. The program will also unpack ESG, carbon, and transition related risks—turning high level narratives into concrete cost, revenue, and financing impacts for Indonesian coal businesses.

Conference Objectives

• Provide a clear 2027 outlook on domestic and export coal markets, including demand scenarios in key Asian destinations and Indonesia’s expected production profile.
• Clarify the operational and financial implications of new RKAB and MinerbaOne requirements for planning, approvals, and ongoing reporting.
• Translate ESG and carbon related expectations into compliance pathways, cost structures, and opportunities for improved market access and financing.

Key benefits of attending

• Navigate RKAB and MinerbaOne with confidence: Gain actionable guidance on how new digital procedures and governance rules affect production planning, permit timelines, and export eligibility, and how to minimize approval risk.
• Secure early insight into 2027 market conditions: Access focused forecasts on domestic demand, ASEAN and Asian import trends, and price scenarios to support contracting strategy and portfolio decisions.
• Mitigate ESG and carbon risk: Understand evolving ESG expectations, emissions reporting, and potential carbon pricing or border measures, and identify strategies that protect market access and strengthen financing options.
• Engage directly with policymakers: Interact with senior representatives from energy, finance, and investment ministries to better understand coming policy adjustments on DMO, royalty structures, and energy transition planning.
• Spot investment and diversification pathways: Explore opportunities in mine efficiency upgrades, logistics, downstream coal use, and transition aligned investments that support long term resilience.
