- tomlockwood 7y agoYeah. Since 2015 for example UK coal usage dropped 60%.
- philipkglass 7y agoAmerican coal production has dropped significantly too, though not as dramatically as UK consumption: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coal_mining_in_the_United_States#Production https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coal_mining_in_the_United_Stat... and https://www.eia.gov/outlooks/steo/report/coal.php https://www.eia.gov/outlooks/steo/report/coal.php From 896 million short tons in 2015 to 690 million in 2019. More decline ahead in 2020: EIA estimates that U.S. coal production declined by 65 million short tons (MMst) (9%) to 690 MMst in 2019. In 2020, EIA expects total U.S. coal production will decline by a further 14% to 597 MMst because of anticipated declines in both exports and domestic consumption in the electric power sector.
