In 2023, Indonesia achieved a breakthrough in refined nickel exports, increasing from zero to substantial volumes, with exports reaching 43,600 mt in 2024. New refined nickel projects are currently under construction, and Indonesia's refined nickel capacity is expected to increase to 180,000 mt by 2026.
