国际能源署（International Energy Agency，IEA）的《煤炭2025》（Coal 2025）报告显示，2025年全球 煤炭需求量估计达到创纪录的88.5亿吨，增长0.5%。 尽管如此，IEA仍然预计2030年需求量将下降，主要是因为电力行业转型，目前发电用煤占全球煤炭消 费量的2/3。 "随着可再生能源发电能力飙升，以及一大波液化天然气进入市场，燃煤发电将从2026年起下降"，该报 告称。 因此，IEA预计到2030年主要煤炭生产国产量将下降，包括南非。 2025年南非煤炭产量预计为2.34亿吨，与2024年基本持平。 然而，该报告预计，铁路改善将使得未来3年出口增加1000万吨。 由于物流改革部分抵消了投资的结构性下降，预计2030年南非煤炭产量将达到2.28亿吨。 然而，该行业用煤仍有增长空间。 2030年煤炭消费最大增量可能发生在印度，预计该国年均消费量将增长3%，使得需求量净增2亿吨。 由于印度季风来的早且强烈，该国煤炭使用量五十年仅第三次下降。这一下降被美国消费的增长所抵 消，尽管美国煤炭消费已经下降了15年，但天然气价格上涨和煤电厂推迟退役使得煤炭用量有所回升。 然而，预测 ...
