But caveat grants Germany and Japan room for manoeuvre in meeting net-zero goals
-
TURIN, Italy - Energy ministers from the Group of Seven (G-7) major democracies agreed on April 30 to end the use of coal in power generation "during the first half of (the) 2030s", according to an official communique.
However, in a caveat, the statement included an alternative goal of phasing out coal-fired power plants "in a timeline consistent with keeping a limit of a 1.5 deg C temperature rise within reach, in line with countries' net-zero pathways".
