Global coal demand is expected to decline slightly by 2030, according to the latest forecasts, after reaching a new record of 8.85 billion tonnes in 2025. This plateau is explained by intensifying competition from renewable energy, liquefied natural gas and nuclear, particularly in the power generation sector, which currently accounts for two-thirds of global coal consumption.
