World energy consumption projections expect coal to stay one of the world’s main energy sources in the coming decades, and a growing share of it will be used in CT—the conversion of coal to liquid fuels (CTL). By 2020, CTL is expected to account for 15% of the coal use in China. —Wang et al.

in 2018, the only annual increase in the past five years. The changes in US energy-related CO 2 emissions in 2019 offset the increase in 2018. CO 2 emissions from coal fell by 14.6%, the largest annual percentage drop in any fuel’s CO 2 emissions in EIA’s annual CO 2 data series dating back to 1973.

Still, that was not fast enough to meet higher electricity demand around the world that also drove up coal use. to 33 Gigatonnes (Gt) in 2018. Coal use in power generation alone surpassed 10 Gt, accounting for a third of the total increase. Most of that came from a young fleet of coal power plants in developing Asia.

In 2018, the transportation sector’s consumption accounted for 78% of US CO 2 emissions from petroleum and more than one-third of all US energy-related CO 2 emissions. Natural gas surpassed coal to become the most prevalent fuel used to generate electricity in the United States in 2016.

Yet the period since 2009 has also witnessed decreases in Chinese coal consumption that underpin a levelling off of global CO 2 emissions, as well as the forging of the Paris Agreement whereby nations are determining their contributions to the global effort to reduce COCO 2 2 emissions.

voestalpine is currently investigating the practicality of a hybrid technology to bridge between the existing coke/coal-based blast furnace route and electric arc furnaces powered with green electricity partly generated using green hydrogen. In the business year 2018/19, the Group generated revenue of €13.6

However, because gas, coal and oil are millions of years old, their carbon has a key difference compared to the carbon cycling through plants. While there are many instruments that can measure CO 2 concentration in the atmosphere, the difficulty is in separating natural CO 2 from plant life from manmade CO 2 emitted by fossil fuel burning.
