Domestic coal supply has steadily increased in recent years. In 2014, domestic coal supply reached only 76 million tons; four years later, it increased to 115 million tons.
This increase is due to government policies aimed at maximizing the use of domestically produced coal for domestic needs. The remainder can then be exported. The government has increased the obligation of mining companies to supply the national coal needs.
The government, through the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), implements regulations regarding coal sales allocation. 25 percent of coal company production was allocated to meet domestic needs in 2018.
