This Week’s Spotlight Story

A deep dive into the headline that defined market conversations.

India Cuts Back on Indonesian Coal as Higher-Grade Imports Gain Ground

India is steadily reducing its reliance on Indonesian thermal coal, favouring higher-calorific value (CV) grades from countries like South Africa, Mozambique, Colombia, and Kazakhstan. 

With global coal prices easing, energy-dense coal has become more cost-effective, delivering more output per ton and improving overall plant efficiency.

In the first five months of 2025, South Africa’s coal exports to India jumped over 26%, while Indonesian supplies dropped 14.3%, according to trade data. 

Indian buyers are increasingly opting for coal that offers better heat content, even if it costs more upfront, as it reduces logistics costs and fuel consumption per unit of power generated.

China is seeing a similar trend, with more imports from Mongolia and Australia replacing Indonesian volumes.

The shift has hit Indonesia hard. Exports to both countries have dropped, and miners are now pivoting toward domestic demand. Local consumption, driven by nickel smelters, is expected to account for nearly 49% of Indonesia’s coal output this year, the highest in a decade. Smelters also offer better margins than the power sector, where coal prices are capped.

The change in trade patterns shows how both cost and energy output are shaping sourcing decisions and coal supply in Asia.
