Distribution by coal saved: this method is applied to the FS model, which considers that the electricity generated from coal saved due to coupled solar energy is equal to the electricity generated from solar energy.
Today, coal remains the largest energy source for electricity generation, steelmaking and cement production – maintaining a central role in the world economy. At the same time, coal is the largest source of man-made carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, and curbing consumption is essential to meeting international climate targets.
The backbone of our estimate is the rise in renewable generation exceeding growth in electricity demand, mainly driven by the acceleration in solar PV deployment and rebounding precipitation in 2024, pushing up hydro generation. This causes thermal coal consumption for power generation to decline significantly, down by 6% or 175 Mt by 2026.
In 2022, global coal demand reached its highest level ever. Today, coal remains the largest energy source for electricity generation, steelmaking and cement production – maintaining a central role in the world economy.
