Industri baja di Indonesia diharapkan tetap berkembang dan mampu mendukung sektor konstruksi dengan produk baja khusus yang dibutuhkan. Namun demikian, industri baja nasional juga masih dihadapkan pada sejumlah tantangan pada tahun 2025 ini.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Secara umum, sektor konstruksi Indonesia diperkirakan akan terus menggeliat dan menjadi pendorong utama perekonomian nasional pada tahun 2025. Hal tersebut pada gilirannya dipercaya dapat memberikan dampak terhadap industri baja yang menjadi salah satu material utama berbagai proyek infrastruktur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ada lima tantangan sekaligus peluang yang bakal mewarnai perjalanan industri baja Indonesia pada 2025. Pertama, kelebihan kapasitas global dan persaingan baja impor. Tak hanya di Indonesia, industri baja global tengah menghadapi tantangan besar terkait kelebihan kapasitas produksi yang sangat signifikan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Data Indonesian Iron and Steel Industry Association (IISIA) mencatatkan pada tahun 2022, kelebihan kapasitas global mencapai 632 juta ton. Organisasi Kerja Sama dan Pembangunan Ekonomi (OECD) memproyeksikan bahwa tambahan kapasitas sebesar 158 juta ton akan terjadi pada periode 2024-2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kelebihan kapasitas ini menyebabkan peningkatan ekspor baja, terutama dari China, yang merugikan produsen baja di negara-negara tujuan ekspor, termasuk Indonesia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Direktur Eksekutif IISIA, Widodo Setiadharmaji, menyatakan bahwa lonjakan ekspor baja China pada 2023 yang meningkat 39% menjadi 92 juta ton, telah menambah persaingan dalam pasar global. Sementara itu, pada 2023, impor baja dari China ke Indonesia meningkat tajam hingga 42%, mencapai 4,05 juta ton, yang memicu kesulitan bagi produsen baja lokal untuk bersaing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHal ini disebabkan harga baja dari China yang lebih murah, mengingat dukungan pemerintah Tiongkok terhadap industri baja mereka,\u201d ungkap Widodo dalam keterangan resmi, pada Senin (6\/1\/2024).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Namun di sisi lain, persaingan harga baja impor lebih murah juga menimbulkan peluang bagi industri baja domestik untuk meningkatkan daya saing melalui kebijakan yang mendukung.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kedua, terkait kebijakan harga gas bumi tertentu (HGBT) yang memberi tantangan dan harapan bagi industri baja nasional. Adapun Pemerintah Indonesia baru saja memperpanjang kebijakan ini melalui penerbitan Kepmen ESDM No. 255.K\/MG.01\/MEM.M\/2024, untuk memberikan tarif gas bumi yang lebih kompetitif untuk industri baja. Meskipun belakangan, kebijakan HGBT juga belum dipastikan berlanjut pada 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Padahal, dengan pasokan energi yang lebih terjangkau, produsen baja di Indonesia dapat memproduksi baja dengan biaya yang lebih efisien, meningkatkan daya saing produk baja domestik baik di pasar lokal maupun internasional.\n\nKebijakan HGBT diharapkan dapat meringankan beban biaya produksi baja, yang pada akhirnya memungkinkan industri baja Indonesia untuk mempertahankan pangsa pasar domestik serta memperluas pasar ekspornya.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Source: Investor.id | January 6, 2025 The steel industry in Indonesia is expected to continue to develop and be able to support the construction sector with the special steel products needed. However, the national steel industry is still faced with a number of challenges in 2025. In general, Indonesia’s construction sector is expected to continue to grow and become the main driver of the national economy in 2025. This in turn is believed to have an impact on the steel industry, which is one of the main materials for various infrastructure projects. There are five challenges as well as opportunities that will color the journey of the Indonesian steel industry in 2025. First, global excess capacity and competition from imported steel. Not only in Indonesia, the global steel industry is facing major challenges related to very significant excess production capacity. Data from the Indonesian Iron and Steel Industry Association (IISIA) shows that in 2022, global excess capacity will reach 632 million tons. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) projects that additional capacity of 158 million tons will occur in the 2024-2026 period. This excess capacity has led to an increase in steel exports, especially from China, which is detrimental to steel producers in export destination countries, including Indonesia. IISIA Executive Director, Widodo Setiadharmaji, stated that the surge in China’s steel exports in 2023, which will increase by 39% to 92 million tons, has increased competition in the global market. Meanwhile, in 2023, steel imports from China to Indonesia will increase sharply by 42%, reaching 4.05 million tons, which makes it difficult for local steel producers to compete. “This is due to the cheaper price of steel from China, considering the Chinese government’s support for their steel industry,” said Widodo in an official statement, on Monday (6\/1\/2024). However, on the other hand, competition for cheaper imported steel prices also creates opportunities for the domestic steel industry to increase its competitiveness through supportive policies. Second, related to certain natural gas price policies (HGBT) which provide challenges and hopes for the national steel industry. The Indonesian government has just extended this policy through the issuance of Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Decree No. 255.K\/MG.01\/MEM.M\/2024, to provide more competitive natural gas tariffs for the steel industry. Although recently, it has not been confirmed that the HGBT policy will continue in 2025. In fact, with a more affordable energy supply, steel producers in Indonesia can produce steel more cost efficiently, increasing the competitiveness of domestic steel products in both local and international markets. The HGBT policy is expected to ease the burden on steel production costs, which will ultimately enable the Indonesian steel industry to maintain its domestic market share and expand its export market.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":6796,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[181,182],"class_list":["post-6795","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-announcements","tag-industri-baja","tag-steel-industry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bakrie-brothers.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6795","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bakrie-brothers.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bakrie-brothers.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bakrie-brothers.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bakrie-brothers.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6795"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bakrie-brothers.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6795\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bakrie-brothers.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6796"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bakrie-brothers.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6795"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bakrie-brothers.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6795"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bakrie-brothers.com\/id\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6795"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
