Figure 1: The best multi-Hubbert cycle match of the historical cumulative production of anthracite, bituminous, and lignite coal in China. The year of peak production is 2011, and the ultimate coal production is 146.5 Gt. The broad base peak is in the year 2019. Data source: Supplemental Materials to Mohr and Evans (2009) [9].
