This report, published by Trend Asia and several international partners, analyzes global coal power trends in 2023. It highlights a contradiction where global coal capacity reached a historic high in 2023 despite a general decline in new construction outside of China. The document provides detailed analysis of China's continued expansion and Indonesia's struggle with 'captive' coal plants supporting the nickel industry, which complicates its energy transition goals.

• Global coal power capacity increased by 48.4 gigawatts (GW), or 2%, in 2023, reaching a total of 2,130 GW. This growth was primarily driven by China, which accounted for two-thirds of the increase.
• While new coal construction starts reached a nine-year low outside of China, they reached an eight-year high within China, contradicting President Xi's 2021 pledge to strictly control coal projects.
• Only 15% (317 GW) of current global operating coal capacity has commitments to close in alignment with the Paris Agreement's 1.5 degree Celsius goal. To phase out operating plants by 2040, an average of 126 GW must be closed annually for the next 17 years.
• In 2023, new coal proposals outside China were led by India (11.4 GW), Kazakhstan (4.6 GW), and Indonesia (2.5 GW). India's new proposals were the highest since 2016.
• Indonesia's energy transition is hindered by the growth of 'captive' coal plants—those used for industrial activities rather than the national grid—particularly to support nickel smelters. These plants are often affiliated with China. In 2023, 5.9 GW of new coal capacity began operating in Indonesia, of which 3.3 GW was captive.
• Indonesia's Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP) has faced criticism because its funding is dominated by debt, with grants representing less than 1% of the commitment. Additionally, the target for early coal plant retirement was reduced from 5.5 GW to 1.7 GW in the November 2023 investment plan.
• The Indonesian Financial Services Authority (OJK) updated its financial taxonomy to categorize captive coal plants as 'transition' activities, which the report describes as a step backward.
