The Global Coal Project Finance Tracker (GCPFT) is a dataset of financial transactions to coal-fired power stations and proposed coal projects. The tracker includes information on project financiers, transaction amounts, financial institutions, financing status, dates of financial close, and more.
Data is available to download and viewable with interactive mapping and aggregate dashboards and summary tables. Each coal power station is linked to its own separate factsheet on GEM.wiki that provides references and further background. The project methodology is available here.
The most recent release of this data was in May 2023.
