North American Coal Mining Trends in 2024
Coal Mining is part of Coal and includes a number of sub-sectors such as Anthracite. You may also be interested in Coking Coal.
Coal production in North America is projected to experience a significant decline over the next few years. According to recent data, the region's coal output is expected to drop to approximately 8.8 exajoules by 2028. This marks a sharp decrease from the 12 exajoules recorded in 2023. The annual average rate of decline is pegged at nearly 5%. This trend is not a new phenomenon; North America's coal supply has been on a downward trajectory since 1986, with an annual average decrease of around 7%. These figures underscore the ongoing shift away from coal as an energy source, reflecting broader trends in energy consumption and environmental policy.
