Downstream Investment Reaches Rp280.8 Trillion in First Half of 2025, Up 54.8 Per Cent Year-on-Year
JAKARTA — Investment and Downstream Minister/BKPM Head Rosan Roeslani announced that downstream sector investment realisation in the first half of 2025 reached Rp280.8 trillion, contributing 29.8 per cent of total national investment of Rp942.9 trillion. The figure grew significantly by 54.8 per cent year-on-year.
"If we look at the current figure, it's 29.8 per cent. Earlier, the second quarter 2025 downstream investment realisation was more than 30 per cent. So the trend continues to increase," said Rosan at a press conference at the Investment and Downstream Ministry/BKPM office in South Jakarta on Tuesday (29/7/2025).
Rosan detailed that the mineral sector was the largest contributor with an investment value of Rp193.8 trillion, comprising nickel at Rp94.1 trillion, copper at Rp40 trillion, and bauxite at Rp27.7 trillion. Other sectors included plantations and forestry (Rp67.4 trillion), oil and gas (Rp17.3 trillion), and fisheries and maritime (Rp2.3 trillion).
He said the government continues to accelerate downstream processing, including through strategic projects such as the construction of an electric vehicle battery factory worth Rp150 trillion in Karawang, West Java.
"There will be more investment coming in. We are indeed pushing for the use of green energy, where electric batteries play an important role in boosting growth and sustainable investment," said Rosan.
By region, Central Sulawesi and North Maluku were the two provinces with the largest downstream investment during the first half of the year. Central Sulawesi recorded investment of Rp55.4 trillion or 19.7 per cent, whilst North Maluku reached Rp33.9 trillion or 12.1 per cent.
"Much of it is concentrated outside Java, particularly in Central Sulawesi and North Maluku, because those two regions have very large reserves, especially in nickel," said Rosan.
