(Reuters) - Energy ministers from the Group of Seven (G7) major democracies will sign a deal to end the use of coal in power generation between 2030 and 2035, but could offer a leeway to Germany and Japan, two diplomatic sources said on Tuesday.
G7 countries will pledge to shut down their coal-fired plants in the first half of the 2030s but may also say countries could also opt for a date consistent with keeping a limit of 1.5°C global temperature rise within reach, the sources said.
