KÜRESEL KÖMÜRLÜ TERMIK SANTRAL TAKIBI

This report, published by Global Energy Monitor and several partner organizations, analyzes the state of global coal-fired power plants as of April 2023. It highlights a divergence between China, where coal capacity is expanding rapidly, and the rest of the world, where development is generally declining. While the report notes that the end of coal is approaching globally, it warns that the current pace of phase-out is insufficient to meet Paris Agreement goals, particularly in non-OECD countries.

• Global coal capacity is trending toward a decline, with approximately one-third of the 580 GW of operational global coal capacity having determined closure dates, and a large portion of the remaining 1,400 GW falling under carbon-neutral targets.
• China is significantly driving global coal growth; in 2022, coal capacity in the development stage in China increased by 32% (from 266 GW to 366 GW), while it decreased by 22% (from 214 GW to 172 GW) in the rest of the world. China's share of global coal capacity in the development stage rose from 55% to 68% in one year.
• The pace of coal phase-out is not yet aligned with Paris Agreement goals. Only 70% of operational coal capacity in OECD countries (330 GW) is on a compatible path, and only 6% of non-OECD capacity (93 GW) has announced closure dates before 2040.
• In 2022, the United States led the world in coal retirements, decommissioning 13.5 GW of capacity.
• Turkey ranks third globally in terms of coal-fired power plant capacity under development, following China and India, with approximately 11 GW of projects announced or licensed as of 2022. However, the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources plans to add only 3.2 GW of coal capacity by 2035, suggesting many current projects may be cancelled.
• The European Union and United Kingdom have largely ceased new coal projects, with no projects in the pre-construction phase. Although the 2022 gas crisis led to the temporary restart or increased production of 26 coal units (19 of which were in Germany), this only resulted in a 1% increase in the EU's total coal production for 2022.
• Private sector financing for coal remains a challenge; while 99 private financial institutions updated their coal policies in 2022, only 12 of these policies were strong enough to stop support for new coal mines and plant operators or set a date for ending coal-based energy financing.
