Report summary

Coal demand in the US will fall 20% over the next 5 years as a super-abundance of natural gas produced in association with tight oil recovery will drive natural gas prices to just over US$2.00/mmbtu. Over the same period, Wood Mackenzie estimates that 51 GW of coal plants will retire. But, is that the end for coal? Read how the coal market fares in this latest release of our North America Coal Markets Long-term outlook.
