The Indonesian Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) has set the Indonesian Coal Reference Price (HBA) for the period beginning May 2025 at US$121.15 per ton.

This price represents a slight 0.79% increase from the period ending April 2025, which stood at US$120.2 per ton.

The reference price for early May also shows a 6.21% year-on-year (YoY) increase compared to May 2024, which was US$114.06 per ton.

In early May, all coal classes saw price increases. HBA I was set at US$80.8 per ton, up from US$78.46 per ton in the second period of April 2025.

Next, HBA II was set at US$50.43 per ton in the first period of May 2025, a slight increase from US$50.07 per ton in the second period of April 2025.

Finally, HBA III was set at US$34.73 per ton in early May 2025, up from US$34.32 per ton at the end of April.

This reference price was established through Indonesian Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Decree (Kepmen ESDM) Number 169.K/MB.01/MEM.B/2025 concerning the Reference Price for Metal Minerals and Coal for the First Period of May 2025, issued on April 29, 2025.

Previously, the HBA was determined based on the average of the Indonesia Coal Index (ICI), Newcastle Export Index (NEX), Globalcoal Newcastle Index (GCNC), and Platt's 5900, with quality equated to a calorific value of 6,322 kcal/kg GAR, total moisture 8%, total sulfur 0.8%, and ash 15%.

The HBA is also differentiated into four categories based on coal quality, namely:

* HBA: equivalent calorific value of 6,322 kcal/kg GAR, total moisture 12.26%, total sulfur 0.66%, and ash 7.94%.
* HBA I: equivalent calorific value of 5,300 kcal/kg GAR, total moisture 21.32%, total sulfur 0.75%, and ash 6.04%.
* HBA II: equivalent calorific value of 4,100 kcal/kg GAR, total moisture 35.73%, total sulfur 0.23%, and ash 3.90%.
* HBA III: equivalent calorific value of 3,400 kcal/kg GAR, total moisture 44.30%, total sulfur 0.24%, and ash 3.88%.
