Clean Power Plan reduces projected coal production in all major U.S. supply regions">Clean Power Plan reduces projected coal production in all major U.S. supply regions
(Fri, 08 Jul 2016) U.S. coal production is projected to decline by about 26%, or 230 million tons, between 2015 and 2040 in EIA's <em>Annual Energy Outlook 2016</em> (AEO2016) Reference case, which assumes the implementation of the Clean Power Plan (CPP). In a scenario that assumes the CPP is never implemented (No CPP case), U.S. coal production remains close to 2015 levels through 2040.
