Growth in #wind and #solar helped drive global #coal power to a record fall of 4%.
Except in China. Despite impressive wind & solar growth, this didn’t keep up with electricity demand, so coal rose to fill the gap.

Almost a TENTH of global electricity in 2020 was supplied by wind turbines and solar panels.
Impressively, it has doubled since 2015, from 4.6% to 9.4%.
Most G20 countries are on the same journey, around the global average 🇮🇳🇨🇳🇯🇵🇧🇷🇺🇸🇹🇷
