This study aims to describe the coal downstreaming program which is expected to increase the added value of coal in Indonesia. Increasing the added value of coal such as the gasification project has a strategic role to increase state revenues and foreign exchange and is expected to have implications for increasing development in the region and nationally. The research method used is a quantitative and qualitative approach. The quantitative approach is used the accounting approach and benefit cost analysis (BCA), while the qualitative approach is used in the study of literature and focus group discussions. From the results of the discussions, the Government can provide coal gasification fiscal incentives to pioneering companies with the consideration that this downstreaming program will be able to spur state revenue as well as regional and national economic growth. Besides this downstreaming activities will be able to increase similar activities in Indonesia.
