Our coal is lower in emissions
Demand for high quality, high-CV, low ash coal is increasing in efforts to reduce CO2-e emissions
Whitehaven's thermal coal is used in
high-efficiency, low emissions (HELE)
electricity generation including
Ultrasupercritical (USC) power plants
Whitehaven's coal allows USC power
plants in Asia to deliver -27% lower
emissions than typical sub-critical plants
in Asia using lower quality coal
In customer countries of Japan, Korea,
Taiwan and Malaysia, 46% of coal fired
power capacity (GW) is from USC plants
compared with 20% 20 years ago
Japan and Korea are commissioning
7 new USC units (totalling 5,970MW)
(2022-24)
