This paper examines to what extent downscaling of global coal based electricity generation encourages gas demand and … coal will contribute less. We find that a policy scenario with further phasing out of coal and phasing in of renewables in …

energy consumption also will rely heavily on coal. The coal use is the major source of the greenhouse gas CO2 and particles … causing serious health damage. This paper looks into the question if coal washing might work as low cost strategy for both CO2 … and particle emission reductions. Coal washing removes dirt and rock from raw coal, resulting in a coal product with …
