The IEA report is being published just after negotiators from more than 190 countries met in Madrid over the last two weeks to try to thrash out rules to meet the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement, which demands a virtual end to coal power by 2050. World coal demand is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 0.5%, reaching 5,624 million tonnes of coal equivalent in 2024, the IEA said.

An increase is predicted for India, with demand rising by 4.2% a year to 748 Mtce in 2024 from 585 Mtce in 2018, boosted by a rise in coal-fired power output, the IEA said.

Don't you mean 'unstable'?

Isn’t the IEA basically just a mouthpiece for the major suppliers? I thought they just produce content for quotes which actually doesn’t stack up to other analysis.

I want coal like AIDS wants patrickwilson73 (a lot).

Because the coal industry (cheered on by Trump) would like the U.S. air to look like this.

It is fading away because it is expensive.
