Coal consumption grew by 3 percent in 2013, below the 10-year average of 3.9 percent, but enough to make it the world’s fastest-growing fossil fuel. Coal’s share of global primary energy consumption reached 30.1 percent, the highest since 1970. China accounted for 67 percent of global growth in coal, which provided 67.5 percent of China’s total energy demand in 2013. The country’s carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel consumption grew by 4.2 percent, or 358 million metric tons.[iii] India’s coal consumption in 2013 was the second largest coal use increase on record, accounting for 21 percent of global growth. Global coal production increased by 0.8 percent in 2013, with Indonesia’s coal production increasing by 9.4 percent, Australia’s coal production increasing by 7.3 percent, and China’s coal production, the largest in the world, increasing by 1.2 percent. China is now consuming 4.2 times as much coal as the United States, using over half of all coal consumed in the world.
