Emerging economies accounted for all of the net growth, with OECD demand falling for the third time in the last four years, led by a sharp decline in Japan. Coal was again the fastest growing fossil fuel with predictable consequences for carbon emissions; it now accounts for 30.3% Solar powergen rose 86.3%, though from a low base.

It’s largely counter to what the rest of the world is doing and begs the question of why Japan seems so intent on making hydrogen power work. In 2017, Japan became the first country in the world to release a national hydrogen strategy. Presently, the vast majority of hydrogen is produced using coal or natural gas as feedstocks.

This was the result of accelerating economic activity as well as the combination of higher natural gas prices and colder weather favoring an increase in coal use. Most of this—around 1 billion tonnes, which is more than the annual emissions of Japan—was due to lower use of oil for road transport and aviation.
