The linked article projects that global coal power capacity should peak by about 2022; unfortunately this cut-back in the rate of coal power use will not be sufficient to meet the Paris goals:
Title: "Guest post: ‘Peak coal’ is getting closer, latest figures show"
https://www.carbonbrief.org/guest-post-peak-coal-is-getting-closer-latest-figures-showExtract: "Total global coal capacity continues to inch up, but a peak is on the horizon. In the first half of 2018, retired capacity has nearly matched newly operating plants and the global pipeline for proposed coal is quickly eroding."
…
While significant, the amount of coal power capacity that began operating during the first half of 2018 (20GW) was nearly matched by the amount retired (16GW), for a net increase of just 4GW – the slowest rate of growth on record. If the slowdown continues global coal capacity should peak by 2022, if not sooner.
…
Coal is the biggest global contributor to heat-trapping CO2, making it essential to phase out its emissions to meet international climate goals.
The most cost-effective route to meeting the Paris Agreement’s “well below” 2C limit would see richer OECD and EU nations ending unabated coal use by 2030, China by 2040, and the rest of the world by 2050, according to climate science NGO Climate Analytics. (The IEA’s “well-below 2C” scenario sees unabated coal use ending by 2040 worldwide.)
However, just the currently operating coal capacity of these regions already exceeds those targets, even without new development."
