4 Global coal production and trade Thermal coal production (million tonne oil equivalent) 2015 Seaborne total coal trade increased at a CAGR of 7% from and 3% from % In 2016, thermal coal production in Asia Pacific region constitutes about 70% of the total global production Seaborne total coal trade development (million tonnes) Source: Drewry Maritime Research, BP Statistical Review of World Energy 2016!4

5 Global coal trade: total Seaborne coal trade totalled 1,081 million tonnes in 2016 with trade of 770 million tonnes of thermal coal, 271 million tonnes of metallurgical coal and 40 million tonnes of anthracite coal Intra Eur 13 FSU-Eur 39 NAm - Eur 27 Rus - FE Asia 53 S&C Am - Eur 49 SE Asia-Eur 6 Aus FE Asia 284 Intra S&C Am 15 S&C Am - ME 5 SE Asia-S Asia 100 SE Asia-FE Asia 144 S&E Af-Eur 10 S&E Af-S Asia 45 Aus S Asia 48 Aus Eur 23 Aus SE Asia 18 More than one-fourth of the total seaborne trade is confined to Australia-Far East Asia, with China being one of the largest importer of coal. With expectation of rising steel production in China, the demand for metallurgical coal is expected to rise. Source: Drewry Maritime Research!5

12 Coal in power generation: regional outlook Use of thermal coal will continue to rise in Asia, Africa and Latin America North America South & Central America % 44% 43% 43% Europe & Eurasia Middle East Africa Asia Pacific In the period , thermal coal power generation declined at a CAGR of 1% while power generation using renewables increased by 17%. IEA expects the global thermal coal demand will continue to increase, but the share of coal in power generation will decline gradually in the medium to long term Energy production using thermal coal is expected to fall in European countries with rising share of renewables and natural gas.

17 Summary

18 Summary Growth in share of renewable energy will slow down growth in demand for thermal coal, but thermal coal use will still grow. Energy production using renewables is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13% between Energy production using coal is expected to rise at a CAGR of 1.8% between Coal demand will contract in Europe and North America. In Asia Pacific countries, thermal coal demand will continue to grow. India will be a large contributor!18
