KÜRESEL KÖMÜRLÜ TERMIK SANTRAL TAKIBI

The report indicates that while global coal capacity is nearing an end with one-third of the 580 GW fleet having set closure dates, the pace of exit is insufficient to meet Paris Agreement goals. China is a major outlier, with its development-stage capacity increasing by 32% to 366 GW in 2022, while the rest of the world saw a 22% decrease. In the EU and UK, the energy crisis caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine slowed retirements and led to the temporary restart of some units, though coal's share of electricity production only rose by 1%. Turkey ranks third globally in developing coal capacity with approximately 11 GW of announced projects, though many face financing and legal hurdles, and the government plans only 3.2 GW of new coal capacity by 2035.

• Global coal capacity is transitioning toward closure, with approximately one-third of the 580 GW operational fleet having determined closure dates, and most of the remaining 1,400 GW falling under carbon-neutral targets.
• China's coal expansion is diverging from global trends; in 2022, China's development-stage capacity grew by 32% (from 266 GW to 366 GW), while the rest of the world's decreased by 22% (from 214 GW to 172 GW).
• The G7 nations hold 15% of global operational coal capacity (323 GW) and have committed to phasing out unabated coal by 2035, though the report argues they must implement 2030 exit targets to meet these goals.
• Turkey ranks third globally in developing coal capacity with approximately 11 GW of projects announced or licensed as of 2022, but the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources plans to add only 3.2 GW of coal capacity by 2035.
• International funding for the transition from coal to clean energy reached 45.2 billion USD over the last two years, with the largest packages allocated to South Africa, Indonesia, and Vietnam.
• Private sector coal policies remain largely insufficient; of 99 private financial institutions that updated coal policies in 2022, only 12 had policies strong enough to stop support for new coal mines and plants or set a phase-out date.
