Global Coal Mining to 2035 (2026 Review)
Summary
The analyst's "Global Coal Mining to 2035 (2026 Review)" provides a comprehensive coverage on the global coal industry. It provides historical and forecast data on coal production by country, production by company, reserves by country and world coal prices. The report also includes a demand drivers section providing information on factors that are affecting the global coal industry. It further profiles major coal producers, information on the major active, planned and exploration projects by region.The global coal production landscape continues to be dominated by China, India, Indonesia, Russia, Australia, and the US, which together accounted for 88.1% of total output in 2025. In 2026, global coal production is forecast to decline by a marginal 1.2% year-on-year to reach 8.72 billion tonnes (Mt). While production in Indonesia, China, and the US is falling, this downturn is being partially offset by supply growth from India and Australia.
Looking ahead, over the forecast period (2026-2035), global coal production is expected to remain relatively flat, growing at a marginal CAGR of just 0.2% to reach 8,918.7Mt by 2035. This stagnation is primarily due to the increasing competitiveness of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, alongside global initiatives to reduce emissions by phasing out coal-fired power plants.
