IEA 2025 Coal Mid-Year Update Summary

Core Content

The International Energy Agency (IEA) provides a comprehensive overview of global coal trends, focusing on demand, production, trade, and prices for the years 2024, 2025, and 2026. The report highlights the continued dominance of Asia in coal markets, particularly China and India, while also noting declining trends in Europe and North America. The global coal market is influenced by economic conditions, renewable energy expansion, natural gas prices, and policy shifts.

Main Trends in Global Coal Demand

2024

Global coal demand increased by 1.5%, reaching an all-time high of 8.79 Bt.
China was the largest driver of demand, consuming 56% of the world's coal, with its power sector alone accounting for one-third of global consumption.
India also saw strong demand growth, while advanced economies like the EU, US, and Japan experienced declines.
Thermal coal demand rose to a record 10,766 TWh, while metallurgical coal use declined slightly by 0.8%.

2025

Global coal demand is expected to remain near 2024 levels, with a slight decline of less than 1% in the first half of the year.
China saw a 3% drop in coal-fired power generation due to renewable energy expansion and weaker electricity demand.
India experienced a 2.1% drop in power generation coal demand, but industrial coal use increased by 6%.
US and EU saw rebound in coal demand, with the US rising by 12% in the first half and the EU by 5%.
Despite these regional shifts, the full-year forecast for 2025 remains flat, with China and India's weaker demand offset by stronger performance in other regions.

2026

Global coal demand is projected to stay near 2024 levels, with a 0.9% increase expected in China and 2.5% in India.
Asia-Pacific will continue to dominate coal use, while the EU and US will see declines.
Japan and Korea are expected to reduce coal demand by 8% and 4%, respectively.
The US administration has signaled support for the coal industry, including regulatory waivers, which may slightly increase coal demand in 2026.

Global Coal Production

2024

Global coal production reached a record high of 9.15 Bt.
China and India were the main drivers, with China producing 4666 Mt and India 1082 Mt.
Indonesia increased production by 8% to 836 Mt, driven by high domestic and export demand.
Australia produced 475 Mt, while US production dropped by 11% due to stockpiling halts.

2025

Global coal production is expected to rise slightly to 9.2 Bt, another record year.
China will increase output by 6%, while India will grow by 3%.
Indonesia will see a 8% drop in production, due to low international prices and weather disruptions.
US production is projected to rise by 8% in the first half, but will moderate in the second half.
Russia will see a slight production decline, though government support may help stabilize the sector.

2026

Global coal production is expected to decline by 1.4%, falling to 9.1 Bt.
China will see a 1% drop, while India will continue to grow at 3%.
Indonesia will reduce production to 721 Mt, and US production is projected to fall to 434 Mt.
EU production will decline further, with Germany and Poland seeing the largest drops.
Mongolia and South Africa are expected to increase production, while Colombia will decline sharply.

Coal Trade

2024

Global coal trade reached an all-time high of 1.55 Bt, with thermal coal trade rising to 1180 Mt.
China was the largest importer, with 548 Mt of coal imports, more than double that of India.
Indonesia became the largest exporter, surpassing Australia and China in volume.
Metallurgical coal trade hit 369 Mt, driven by steel production demand in Asia, especially from Mongolia to China.

2025

Global coal trade is expected to decline, reversing the 2024 trend.
China will reduce imports by 76 Mt, due to high domestic production and inventory levels.
India will also reduce coal imports, as domestic production outpaces demand.
Viet Nam is the only major importer expected to increase coal imports in 2025.
Russia faces declining exports due to sanctions and logistical issues.

2026

Coal trade is expected to further decline, with China and Japan/Korea leading the drop.
India will continue to increase domestic production, limiting its import needs.
Australia may see a modest recovery in exports if metallurgical coal production resumes.
Russian exports remain uncertain due to sanctions and low prices.

Coal Prices

Coal prices peaked in 2022 due to Ukraine invasion and energy supply disruptions.
China's oversupply in 2024 led to domestic and international price declines.
Thermal coal prices in the first half of 2025 fell to their lowest since 2021.
International thermal coal prices stabilized in 2025, but producers are still affected by weak demand and low prices.
Metallurgical coal prices are expected to remain low due to economic uncertainty and slower GDP growth.

Key Players and Regional Influence

China remains the largest consumer and producer of coal, accounting for 56% of global consumption.
India is the second-largest consumer, with a growing power and industrial sector.
Indonesia is the largest exporter, especially to China, and has seen record production.
Australia is the top supplier of coking coal, but metallurgical coal exports are expected to decline.
Russia faces uncertainty in coal exports due to sanctions and low profitability.
European Union is phasing out coal, with Germany and Poland leading the decline.
United States is reinvigorating its coal industry through policy support and natural gas price increases.
