The manufacturing sector comprised more than 11% of gross domestic product (GDP) in 2010. Energy for manufacturing can be consumed in two ways: as a fuel or as a feedstock (material input to a final product). Two energy-intensive subsectors (petroleum and coal products, and food) showed 3.5%

Coal accounted for 45% of total energy-related CO 2 emissions in 2011, followed by oil (35%) and natural gas (20%). China made the largest contribution to the global increase, with its emissions rising by 720 million tonnes (Mt), or 9.3%, primarily due to higher coal consumption. This represents an increase of 1.0 Gt on 2010, or 3.2%.

They used a lot more coal than they originally admitted to, several hundred million tons more. Another major shift is that China has become a voracious energy importer, especially of coal and liquefied natural gas.
