Abstract

Coal is at the centre of debate on energy and climate policy. In a growing number of countries, the elimination of coal-fired generation is a key climate policy goal while in others; coal is abundant and affordable and remains the key source of electricity. Ultimately, despite significant media attention being given to divestments and moves away from coal, market trends are proving resistant to change.
