DEMAND for coal, oil and gas will start falling by 2030, according to a report released by the International Energy Agency today.
According to the IEA’s World Energy Outlook 2023, the share of fossil fuels in the global energy supply will decrease to 73 per cent from 80 per cent by the end of the decade.
The report also says that new emissions of greenhouse gases globally will peak by 2025.
