Around 60-70 percent of Indonesia's coal commodities are exported while the remaining supply is channeled to domestic market.
"We mostly import coal, the most inexpensive energy source. Short-term policy on exports is thus required," said member of National Energy Council, Herman Darnel Ibrahim, on Tuesday, April 19.
Given the overflowing stock of coal, according to Herman, nuclear energy is not yet necessary. Coal reserves now reach 20 billion tonnes, while potential coal reserves hit 130 billion tonnes.
By 2025, electricity may require 500,000 tonnes of coal per day.
Herman said the government must reconsider policies to provide mining enterprises with domestic market obligation.
"A consensus must be prepared if exports of energy raw materials need an approval from House members. We have limited non-renewable energy sources," he said.
