While the U.S. boom in shale gas helped push the fossil fuel's share of
total global energy
consumption from 23.8 to 23.9 percent,

But monthly
coal consumption started growing again in the second half of 2016 (relative to the second half of 2015), and
total annual

In 2012,
coal made up one - quarter of the city's
total energy
consumption, Xinhua quoted official statistics as saying.
* The
total energy
consumption statistic includes petroleum, dry natural gas,
coal, net hydro, nuclear, geothermal, solar and wind electric power.

The
coal share of
total world energy
consumption declines significantly over the projection period, from 27 % in 2015 to 22 % in 2040.
When the
total energy in Btu from
coal consumption by State is known (with no breakdown by
coal - consuming sector), the State average emission factors can be used to estimate the
total amount of carbon dioxide emissions by State.
The residential / commercial sector is a relatively minor component of
coal consumption, with about 1 percent of the
total in 1980 and 1992.
