Sinopec reported they have reached peak Gas demand, some experts experts believe they have reached peak total carbon emissions also In Jan 20th's The Australian Newspaper

"China is the world's biggest coal producer and importer and has more coal-fired capacity under construction than the rest of the world combined.
China is building 136.24 GW of coal-fired generation, and has another 255.5 GW at the announced, pre-permit or permitted stage, according to data compiled by the Global Energy Monitor.
This is 67% of the global coal-fired capacity currently under construction and 72% of the potential new capacity."
