Less than 90% in one year: Algeria definitively turns its back on coal

The figures speak for themselves: Algeria's coal consumption fell from 0.01 to 0.001 exajoule between 2024 and 2025, a decline of over 90% in just one year. Coal, which already represented only a marginal share of national energy supply, thus becomes an almost residual source, confined to rare occasional industrial uses.

OPEC+ Alliance Moves Towards New Increase in Oil Production
