 Coal Consumption
• China 47% India 13% US 9%
 Recent Trends
• In USA shifting from coal to natural gas
• In Europe more renewable, however, coal still a
large part
• China shifting away from coal in last few years
• A interesting trend of almost flat lining of energy
generation in many countries
• CO2 emissions also flat lining for globe
• UK went from 23% coal to 9% from 2015 to 2016
due to carbon tax
• Many countries have announced coal phase out
