Status of China’s overseas coal projects 2016
Methodology
Chinese SOEs and banks involved in the planning and implementation of international coal projects to date do not have a disclosure system that makes public environmental and social information of the projects from appraisal to completion. The figures therefore include both proposed/planned and committed projects and may include projects that are stalled.
Information on specific projects, country pipeline and status of projects have been provided by Groundwork South Africa, Coastal Livelihood and Environmental Action Network (Bangladesh), Center for Energy and Ecology (Bosnia and Herzegovina), Center for Environment (Bosnia and Herzegovina) and CEKOR (Serbia). The estimates provided here include figures cited in IEEFA and GEM reports.
