Formed deep underground over thousands of years of heat and pressure, coal is a carbon-rich black rock that releases energy when burned. In the United States, roughly 30 percent of all electricity comes from coal: the rest comes from natural gas, nuclear, and renewables like wind and solar. Most US coal comes from either above-ground mines in Wyoming and Montana, or underground mines in ...

The role of China will be key. Today, about 70 percent of the country's power is generated from coal, and China is responsible for about half of global coal demand. As renewables become cost advantageous, we expect China to shift increasingly from coal. Coal represented just over 60 percent of China's primary energy mix in 2017, a decline ...
