Germany's commitment to exit coal by 2030 isolates Poland, the Czech Republic, and Bulgaria, who are projected to account for over 95% of the EU's coal electricity generation by 2030. While the rest of the EU-27 is on track to reduce coal generation by 99% by 2030, these three countries plan a reduction of only 42%.

  • The European Union is rapidly reducing its reliance on coal, with planned electricity generation from coal expected to drop by 83% between 2015 and 2030, falling from 705 TWh to 118 TWh.
  • Germany's decision to exit coal by 2030 has significantly accelerated the EU's overall trajectory. Planned coal electricity generation for 2030 decreased by more than 50% (-58%) in less than two years following the submission of National Energy and Climate Plans (NECPs), potentially preventing 89–152 million tonnes of CO2 emissions in 2030.
  • Three EU countries—Poland, the Czech Republic, and Bulgaria—are becoming isolated as the primary remaining coal polluters. By 2030, these three nations are projected to be responsible for over 95% of the EU's planned coal electricity generation, with Poland accounting for 63%, the Czech Republic 18%, and Bulgaria 14%.
  • Poland, the Czech Republic, and Bulgaria are phasing out coal much slower than the rest of the EU. While the rest of the EU-27 is expected to reduce coal electricity generation by 99% between 2015 and 2030, the combined reduction for these three countries is planned at only 42%.
