Indonesia's Weda Bay Industrial Park is one of the most important nickel-processing hubs in the world and serves a large cluster of smelters that produce nickel pig iron, a key input for stainless steel production.
Indonesia dominates global nickel supply, producing 2.6 million metric tons of nickel in 2025 out of a global total of 3.9 million tons, accounting for roughly two-thirds of global mine production.

Ein neues Handelsabkommen öffnet US-Firmen Indonesiens Mineral- und Energiemarkt.. --- Ein neues Handelsabkommen zwischen den Vereinigten Staaten und Indonesien verändert die wirtschaftlichen Beziehungen der beiden Länder grundlegend, wie die Associated Press berichtet. Jakarta öffnet US-Investoren umfassend seine Mineralressourcen, steigert den Kauf amerikanischer Rohöl- und Flüssiggasprodukte, unterstützt den Aufbau einer Exportstrecke für US-Kohle und vereinbart die Kooperation bei kleinen modularen Kernreaktoren.. --- Haryo Limanseto vom Koordinationsministerium für Wirtschaft Indonesiens betonte, die Energiebestimmungen des Abkommens würden "einen Ausgleich zwischen Außenhandel und dem Decken des inländischen Energiebedarfs schaffen". Die USA reagierten ihrerseits auf Indonesiens Zugeständnisse, indem sie die zuvor drohende Zollbelastung von 32 Prozent auf 19 Prozent senkten und den Marktzugang für wichtige Produkte wie Palmöl, Kaffee, Kakao, Gewürze und Kautschuk zollfrei ermöglichten..
