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.

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.
