Indonesia's energy ministry has confirmed that mining and coal work plans and budgets (RKAB) for 2027 will continue under the annual approval system, rather than reverting to the previous three-year cycle, according to Bloomberg. The decision, based on Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry Regulation No. 17 of 2025, aims to enable more flexible output oversight to support price stability. Industry groups including the Indonesian Mining Experts Association (Perhapi) have opposed the move, arguing the annual system adds approval hurdles and weakens long-term investment certainty.

Reservoir levels feeding hydropower plants in southern Norway have fallen to a record low for the time of year, heightening risks of higher European power prices and increased gas dependence this winter. Hydropower reserves in Norway's southernmost NO2 price zone stood at just 15.6 TWh, below the previous seasonal low of 15.7 TWh set in 1996, according to data from the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate. Norway, one of Europe's largest power exporters, relies on its vast hydropower system to provide flexible electricity that supports neighbouring markets when wind and solar output fall short, but declining reservoir levels have weakened that buffer. Power prices face a significant upside risk, with the impact potentially lasting through the winter and into spring, said Katinka Bogaard, managing director of Oslo-based Volt Power Analytics.

Fenwei picked representative thermal coal mines as monitoring sites in Shanxi, Shaanxi and Inner Mongolia. In-depth communication with their production and sales staff allows us to create regular reports on price, operating rate, stocks, production and logistics costs of each sample mine. We thus can make quantitative research on the production and operation situations of China's thermal coal mines.
