Challenges of Coal Transitions

Description: Today more than 45 % of all energy-related ⁠ CO2 ⁠ emissions come from burning coal. Thus, reducing CO 2 emissions from coal use is a necessity for reaching the targets of the Paris Agreement. This will not only pose challenges for coal consumers (restructuring of the energy system), but also for countries whose economy is strongly depending on the production of coal. This paper examines the role of coal in three countries, which are or were in recent years among the top coal exporters: Indonesia, Colombia and Vietnam. Understanding challenges and possible transition pathways in these countries will help to develop global strategies to reduce CO 2 emissions from coal in the short to mid-term.
