Indonesian cement demand forecast to rise by 33% from start of Nusantara construction

Indonesia: A Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) academic has estimated a 33% rise in Indonesian cement consumption to 84Mt/yr from the start of construction of the country's planned new capital city, Nusantara, and for the following 20 years during which the city is under construction. National coal consumption is forecast to rise accordingly, by 9% to 126.5Mt/yr. Mongabay News has reported that the Indonesian government has more than tripled the coal domestic market obligation for cement production to 15Mt/yr in 2022 - 2025, from 4.5Mt in 2021.

The site of Nusantara sits on the present border between North Penajam Paser and Kutai Kartanegara districts. Construction of the city's upcoming government district is beginning in August 2022. 100,000 workers will be engaged in the first phase of construction. A researcher at Beihang University, China, has reportedly estimated that the eventual 10m people-strong city will consume 60Mt of cement for residential construction alone.
