Analyst Comment: Australia’s Coal Industry Faces Growth, Pressures, and Declines by 2030. Australia’s coal production is set to rise by 2.8% in 2024 to 550 million tonnes, driven by mines like Ironbark No.1 and Olive Downs Complex. Thermal coal remains the majority output, but cost pressures, including rising royalties and emissions management expenses, loom large. From 2027, the closure of 24 mines, including Clermont and Yallourn, will lead to sharp declines.
