Chinese President Xi Jinping announced that no coal-fired power plant will be built abroad as part of the fight against climate change.

Expressing that they plan to support the transition of developing countries to green energy, Xi stated that China’s goal is to switch to a zero carbon economy by 2060.

Xi also said that China does not want to put pressure on countries by not imposing what needs to be done on any country.

Coal-fired electricity production at the U.K.’s largest power plant is expected to end in March 2021, energy firm Drax said Thursday, with the move leading to between 200 and 230 job losses. Drax Power Station — which is located near the town of Selby, North Yorkshire — has a capacity of 3,906 megawatts and generates approximately 18 terawatt-hours of power annually, according to the firm.

The facility has 6 units: four which have been converted to generate power using what Drax describes as “sustainable biomass,” and two which use coal.
