Looks like it's mainly China, India, and Indonesia that are increasing usage for industrial products and power generation. Europe increased a bit last year but is expected to drop and US rates are dropping.

There is also the fact that it was a bad year for hydro in China. If it were a normal year we might not have seen coal consumption go up as much.

Chinese consumptions so much dramatically higher than in India that over fairly short periods, what happens in India will have almost no impact.
