The report highlights a global divergence in coal energy: while most of the world is decommissioning coal plants due to financial pressures and climate goals, China significantly increased its capacity in 2020. In 2020, China's new coal capacity of 38.4 GW nearly offset the total global decommissioning of 37.8 GW. Meanwhile, Southeast Asian and South Asian nations like Indonesia, Vietnam, Bangladesh, and the Philippines have moved to cancel or review plans for 62 GW of coal capacity. The US saw record decommissioning under Donald Trump, and the EU continues to phase out coal. However, the report warns that current trajectories, especially in China, make the IPCC's 1.5°C warming limit unattainable without massive cancellations of planned projects.

  • In 2020, China's rapid expansion of coal-fired power plants almost entirely neutralized global efforts to reduce coal capacity. China added 38.4 GW of new capacity, while the rest of the world decommissioned 37.8 GW, resulting in a net global increase of 12.5 GW.
  • Several Southeast and South Asian countries—Indonesia, Bangladesh, Philippines, and Vietnam—have moved to cancel or review coal plans totaling 62 GW. This represents an 80% reduction compared to the 125.5 GW planned in 2015.
  • Financial support for coal is declining globally, but loopholes remain. While many banks have restrictions, some commercial banks—including Barclays, Citi, and JPMorgan Chase—continue to support coal companies, and Japanese banks often provide funding for 'Ultra Supercritical' technology.
