Coal in Transition: COP-27, ESG, and Energy Transition – where are we heading?

Coal in 2023 finds itself in a unique situation among global electricity and steel sector feedstocks. The energy transition has very much begun, with coal now a fuel that is starting to move into structural decline. But it will still be needed for decades to come. Supplying coal for the remainder of its life will require investment that is very challenging in an ESG-driven investment environment. But as 2022 showed, coal is still being turned to when other fuels face challenges.
