    I was referring to this sentence:

    In 2024 the International Energy Agency said: “After having grown by more than 1.2 billion tonnes since 2020, global coal demand is set to plateau in the next three years, reaching around 8.87 billion tonnes by 2027.

    We probably can determine the peak only in hindsight, but based on China’s expansion of renewable energy alone, the age of needing 8 billion tonnes and more is probably over somewhere soon.
