Clean Technica: The growth in global coal demand is expected to stall over the next five years, according to a new report from the International Energy Agency, which predicts that appetite for the fuel will wane and other energy sources will gain ground.
The predictions are part of the International Energy Agency’s (IEA) latest report, the latest Medium-Term Coal Market Report, which predicts the share of coal in the power generation mix will fall to 36% by 2021, down from 41% in 2014, thanks in part to lower demand in China and the United States, combined with the increasing growth and popularity of renewables and a strong focus on energy efficiency.
