Global coal demand to rise % in 2021 after record
#0183;#32;Demand for thermal and metallurgical coal should rise to 7,432 million tonnes in 2021, from 7,243 million tonnes this year, the Parisbased agency said in its Coal 2020 report.

The Minerals Council of Australia released a report related to the outlook for seaborne thermal coal in terms of demand to 2030 in the Asia Pacific region.. The report was commissioned to
Importantly, five countries/regions are forecast to increase demand by more than 30Mt, illustrating the breadth of market demand growth for imported thermal coal which is not reliant on growth
#0183;#32;Consequently, thermal coal demand from the power sector fell % y/y, with overall demand falling % y/y. This year, the Chinese thermal coal market is expected to contract further, as power demand growth remains weak and competition from nonfossil fuel power sources increases.
#0183;#32;However, we do not expect Chinese demand for thermal coal to grow as fast as supply. We estimate demand will increase by 92 Mt in 2020, compared to supply growth closer to 100 Mt. As such, there is a risk for the QHD coal price to fall below the green area (the governments preferred price range, between RMB500570/t) if China does not enact supplyside reform this year.

The resulting decline in thermal coal demand ( ~8%/y from ) would, obviously, cause prices to be significantly lower than those expected in our base case. Using cost curves from our Thermal Coal Cost Service, we estimate that coal demand in this scenario would cause thermal coal prices to drop to 2735 /t, 6,000 kcal, real 2016, FOB Australia, by 2030.

An analysis of international data in the report found global demand for thermal coal would drop 28 per cent by 2025. The decline will continue, and be 59 per cent by 2040, the report says.
Staff, while a smaller producer than China or India at 352 million metric tons of coal in 2011, has witnessed a quadrupling of its production rate since 2000 as it has helped meet demand for thermal coal in Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, India, China and other areas.
Seaborne thermal coal demand is likely to increase by, or 35mn t, in 2021 compared with this year, led by an increase in consumption in India and southeast Asia on an expected Covid19 recovery in economic activity, according to commodity trader Noble Resources.
#0183;#32;Pune, Sept. 17, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) Fastclimbing demand for thermal energy storage to curb carbon emissions will be the pivotal driving factor in the global thermal
#0183;#32;Thermal coal demand is declining globally and forcing cutbacks of imports and production, driven by lower power sector coal demand resulting from the
#0183;#32;Both coals (thermal and metallurgical) are at the top of our commodity preference list in our recent price deck (forecasts), since demand recovery has not yet been priced in, Morgan Stanley
#0183;#32;The MCA, which released a thermal coal demand report on behalf of Commodity Insights, expects Asian thermal coal imports to grow by more than 270
London Demand for thermal coal globally is set to remain stable over the next five years at around billion mt, as growth from India and Southeast Asia will offset declines in Europe and North America, according to the International Energy Agency''s coal analysis and forecast released Tuesday.
New research conducted on behalf of the Minerals Council of Australia (MCA) has noted that the demand for thermal coal imports in the Asia Pacific region will grow by more than 270million tonnes
Seaborne thermal coal demand is likely to increase by, or 35mn t, on the year in 2021, led by an increase in consumption in India and southeast Asia as economic activity recovers from Covid19, according to commodity trader Noble Resources.
