Big Coal
It is thought that big coal will continue to expand. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), "the equivalent of fourteen hundred, 1,000 megawatt coal fire power plants will be built in the world by 2030. About half of those plants will be in China, 15 percent in India, and the remaining third primarily in the coal burning west, including Australia and the United States."
