活況と不況－石炭 2025 世界の石炭火力発電所の計画追跡

In 2024, global new coal capacity reached its lowest level in 20 years, though total capacity still grew by 18.8 GW due to record construction starts in China and high proposal numbers in India. While OECD nations have seen planned coal plants drop from 142 in 2015 to 5 currently, Japan and South Korea are pursuing ammonia co-firing to extend coal use, a strategy the report describes as costly and inconsistent with Paris Agreement goals.

• Despite the overall decline in new capacity, global coal capacity increased by a net 18.8 GW in 2024 because new commissions (44 GW) exceeded retirements (25.2 GW). This growth was driven by China and India, who together accounted for 92% of new global coal construction plans in 2024 (107 GW out of 116 GW).
• Japan and South Korea are promoting ammonia co-firing to extend the life of coal plants, despite high costs and low emission reduction potential. South Korea plans to introduce 20% ammonia co-firing in over half of its 41 GW coal fleet by 2030, while Japan aims for 100% ammonia combustion by 2050. The report notes that for a project to be considered a reduction, 90% or more emission cuts are required, which 20% co-firing cannot achieve.
