potential global CO2 emissions by replacing
coal with natural gas
118 EJ of coal supply expected in 2050, providing further opportunity to replace with natural gas
Could lead to additional ~6,000 Mt CO2 net reduction
Based on IEA data from the IEA (2021) World Energy Outlook, World Energy Outlook 2021 - Analysis - IEA. All rights reserved; as modified by Kinder Morgan. STEPS scenario. 118 exajoules (EJ) of coal demand in 2050 divided by
2020-2050 reduction of coal demand of 38 EJ, and then multiplied by the net change in 2020-2050 CO2 emissions from coal and natural gas of 2,005 Mt CO2 = 6,217 Mt CO2.
